Good article, lengthy..lots of research. Doesn't alleviate my concerns. It explicitly references them. I think it will make a good stop gap. It could buy us time. But that's best (and entirely unrealistic) case scenario. Hence my polishing brass on the titanic comment. I think this..because assuming total conversion to electric cars can eliminate transportation emissions entirely (which it can't)...we'd only hit 30% of the required 60-80% reductions necessary by 2050. Which isn't even enough time to pull off a plan like that if it were possible, which it isn't.
It's not that I think they're a bad idea...I think they've been massively oversold. When Musk oversells his product, I understand. When people drink the koolaid...I cringe a little, lol.
