Reply to comment by Spaceseeds in Exxon’s bad reputation got in the way of its industry-wide carbon capture proposal by Sorin61
Oh wait, one guy says we should continue to use fossil fuels? Let me rethink my entire world view. Also I'm SURE Exxon Mobil really has our long term interests at heart, despite literally every piece of evidence to the contrary which shows they'll do absolutely anything to keep fossil fuels front and center

You didn't even scratch the surface of the argument. A hybrid is more energy efficient than a long range EV when you account for all the carbon it took to create the batteries in the long range EV.
Lithium is not what you think.
You sound like a child and a fool who won't look at the data presented. For anyone else interested, I have provided a link to the topic on discussion.. I'm sure this other fool will just shart diarrhea out of his mouth, so why don't you all be the judge for yourselves...

From the description of the exact video you linked to:

Moreover, both EVs and hybrids, despite being better for carbon release than conventional ICEs, are not enough to fix the problem. We need to build better public infrastructure and drastically reduce individual car ownership. Switching to more efficient cars is good, but it's effectively just kicking the can down the road. We need to overhaul the entire transportation industry.

Yep. Continuing to rely on a car based system just asks for systematic failure when the cheap materials run out and they are running out.

Your insults really are making me want to listen to your Ted talk. You really know how to win hearts and minds.
