*Total fuel consumption of U.S. airlines is approximately 19 billion gallons annually.
*Total fuel consumption for mining Ore for construction of electric car batteries is approximately 21 billion gallons annually.
*The 21 billion gallons of fuel burned can only produce enough Ore to build 250,000 electric car batteries.
*The lifespan of an electric battery is 10 years and is not renewable.
*By 2050 these batteries will fill landfills with 50 million pounds of waste that does not break down.
BOTTOM LINE = I wonder if people would still believe in electric power cars, vehicles or equipment if they knew how massive the carbon emissions footprint really was?
