Let’s look at this, it was dry land and they build a city,

the city collapsed in an earthquake, they decided to flood the city by making a dam. 
 

Now they drain water from the dam and expose the city that was built on dry land in the first place. How can this be considered climate change?

shit in my mouth and call it ice cream don’t make it ice cream

We need to ramp up renewables ASAP....windmills, solar. Whatever it takes to releive some pressure from our grids....... this is frightening and not good at all:

Brownouts  and blackouts are now considered racist terms. Congress needs to change this now.

No, we need to produce more electric vehicles and put even more of a load on the system.

There is a lot of history in Iraq. It is the birthplace of civilization, Mesopotamia. Some scholars think it was the garden of eden in the bible. 

Yeah lots of very interesting history in that area

Which in turn means less vehicles at the gas pump. Less vehicles requiring oil changes. See how that works? Of course you don’t.

How do less oil changes help an overburden electrical grid?

Tons of EV’s in the Twin Cities. I don’t hear of any problems with the grid. This isn’t about every vehicle being EV. It’s about a mixture of various fuels being used in society. Why that’s so difficult to understand is beyond me.

8-300w solar panels and a charge controller would provide virtually free charging for an EV in northern climates. That would be about $3k installing everything yourself. Even as little as 4 panels would cut fuel costs substantially.

EV owners are fucked in the head. But it’s another one of those topics where believing in them is the thing that doesn’t make them a piece of shit as a person 

not saying they don’t have a place for certain demographics of people that just need to commute a few miles to work at the gap or wherever but until battery tech improves dramatically they’re mostly a virtue signalling garbage can in the real world

EV’s are fine for 80% of people. As for straining the grid, oil refineries are now operating at or near full capacity and none of the oil companies believe another will ever be built. So what’s wrong with spreading out the use of fuels ?

Nothing....get government the fuck out of everything and let the market and common sense decide. EVs will work for a lot of people , those are the people that should have them. They will not work for another large group currently and those people shouldn’t be punished cause some faggot ass retard doesn’t like their gas engine

They’re like a fag that discovered cock and when they demand that you should try one and you say no, you must be punished for it.

and they will tell you daily how wrong you are for not slurping on their favourite cock

does anyone think politicians who force markets with regulation should own stock in start up companies in those exact industries?
