That’s why I brought up politics as best I could. I think that is slowing us down right now. Not only the infrastructure but the fact there’s so much oil money in politics. Both foreign and domestic.

I think we also need a government trade in program for vehicles if we want to speed up the transition to all electric. We are also going to need lower interest loans for low income families. We also need to develop a longer lasting power source for vehicles and plans for large scale disposal of non recyclable parts. There’s a lot to do on a local scale for each country.

I think it will take longer than that for everything to be electric. You have to consider semi, trains, cargo ships, public transportation in rural areas. I bet it will be 2050.

In 2030 is about the time republican states turn towards ev as California has. Places will have to build more infrastructure for electric vehicles.

The cost for people like me who are stuck with $3,000 vehicles would be a problem then as it is now. I can’t afford to make payments or if an electric vehicle broke down I’d be screwed. I think in 2030 there will be more hybrids being used by people like me and more electric on the road along with their ability to travel farther.

Edit. It’s going to take a long time to replace passenger planes. It takes time to build them and it will take even longer to test them. I bet that will be the last thing converted to electric
