We should use hydrogen energy, but ofcourse we won't need clean up crews if we get in an accident, hell we won't even need ambulance, mini tactical nukes going off every now and then

(OOOOOOH AHHHHH)

Hydrogen = bait-and-switch tactic by the oil companies. Why you may ask? Well for one, there are no Hydrogen filling stations. Two, today, Hydrogen would cost 4X as much, per gallon, as gasoline and third, there are no hydrogen fuel cells in existence that would fit a real world driving/living scenario... today.

Electric technology is here now. There are "filling stations" all over the place (plug in to a/c outlet) and batteries keep getting better every 3-6 months thanks to the laptop industry!

I even read about a new battery tech that runs on sugar and is 100% biodegradable AND lasts 4x longer than a Lithium Ion battery. It's being developed in Chicago right now. You'll see, 100% electric cars are the only true technology that makes any sense. Hydrogen is BS and car companies + big oil companies are using the media to fool YOU.

Hybrid technology is semi-acceptable but 100% electric is the way to go. The more 100% electric cars/trucks/suvs that get sold, the more this form of energy will emerge with newer and greener ways to produce it.

then they forgot to mention, wtf are they going to do with the bad batteries?

The Prius is an interesting idea with lots of room to grow but for the most part it's a tin death trap with a high price tag. Let's see where Toyota goes with this in the next two years.

Look at its mileage ratings next year and see how great of an idea it is. The EPA is finally changing the way they rate cars gas mileage to something that makes a little more since. The little hybrids are about to loose 35-45% compared to the 10ish% of a normal car. Want to really make since put that technology on larger vehicles like GM. They are putting hybrid stuff to work on bus's in Seattle, I think (that might be the wrong city). The amount of fuel saved and the reduction in C02 from doing that to something like a bus or other large vehicle makes crap like the prius look like a joke in the green way of thinking. Not to mention its easier to find a place for the batteries and pad the cost of the technology into the sticker.

You thing batteries are manufactured and disposed of with no harm to the environment?

The only environmentally sound mode of transportation... unless your in PETA
