Some time back Larkin pointed out, there is a huge amount of energy in the fuel storage of autos. While some people get upset by the 50 to 100 kWh stored in a BEV battery, there are up to TEN times that much energy held in a gas or diesel tank, 1 MWh! Yeah, as much as 400 kg of TNT.
If that is true, petrol cars should travel ten times further than electric.

If you could actually get all the energy to move the car, then yeah. But the efficiency of an ICE Is so horrible, it gets maybe a quarter of the energy turned into movement.

Do a little math and show me wrong. Use the massive gas tanks that are being discussed for the 600 mile range vehicles. You do know how to do math, right?
If electric cars are so efficient, why do they have such a shit range?

It is hard to believe you are really so stupid. I can\'t imagine you aren\'t just trying to tweak us all off for your own amusement. No one is this stupid. Even a sixth grader can do the math.
Can\'t you answer my simple question? If you think you\'re cleverer than me, you must know the answer. A petrol car can travel much further on its stored energy than an electric one.

Because the petrol car stores so much more energy in the tank. Is that not completely obvious???

You are just trolling. Either that or you are the stupidest person on the planet.

Thanks for admitting the battery is a useless device for storing energy.

So presumably they\'ll be banning electric cars from ferries, channel tunnel etc.

Conventional vehicles are more likely to catch fire than battery electric vehicles.

Trivia: a truckload of pristine new automobile batteries needs hazardous
materials placards. A truckload of leaking junk batteries going to LA
for recycling doesn\'t.

Less power stored in them as they\'re fucked.

This is very important if you picked the junk up
in Denver. Hazmat loads can\'t go through Eisenhower tunnel so you have
to take the goat trail over the pass.

Not from what I\'ve seen. And Lithium fires are fucking hard to put out.

Child chimney sweeps died early of cancer of the scrotum. The coal tar you get from burning coal is very carcinogenic.
The argument for sending kids to school rather than to work is that you can educate the brighter kids to do more valuable work.
This won\'t have worked with you, so you should have got your wish.

Oil and gas are great. Once you drill a well, the stuff just comes up
and flows into a pipeline. No dust, no miners, no crushers, no
chemicals, no trucks, no tailings. Nobody even needs to be there.

Fracking needs a little more attention, but the action is still deep
underground.

Of course John Larkin believes climate change denial propaganda which is written by the oil and gas extraction industry.
