All this talk about Global warning and the effects of pollution. Honestly I don't know about cars and how much their effect would be or is actually overall, but the electric system I do have alot of knowledge. I am a system operator for the bulk electric system and we have many studies on pollutions created by different types of generation. I can tell you what is spewed out into the atmosphere does have undeniable effects on our atmosphere, coal being the worst of these. Alot of our generated electric throughout the industry is coal plants, and it's something that we need to evolve from. There are many arguments about if the planet is warming or cooling. But there is no denying the ice caps are melting very unexpectedly fast. This is a big problem and if anything we do can help to prevent this, we damn sure should. Sometimes I wonder how anyone can say what we do does not effect this planet. That is denial. Does anyone remember Acid rain. We should do what we can to be good stewarts of our planet. I agree there are things that happen that we have no contirbution to, but if there is a slight chance that we can make a difference with new and improved technologies I think it would be in our best interest to do so, and not fight it. Fossil fuels is old technology. Not to say that we shouldn't have gas combustion engines, in fact I would venture to say that there would be a good chance that if we changed our approach to producing electricity that that alone might be enough, I don't know. I want my V8 too, and I suspect that we will have them for awhile longer, but if they change the whole way of automobile power plants, I would give it a chance, and speed is something that is etched into our DNA, so whatever we do I know we will make it fast! IMO being so stubborn or set in your ways that you only see or hear what you want, you might just miss out on some finer things in life. So let the flaming begin Just remember I love this Camaro and I am purchasing that big ole V8 like alot of you, that being said, my mind will always be open to other ideas.
