Electric car

[Mister Fishfinger]

Here we would need a shit load of coal/nuclear power plants. That would be a lot of fun getting them build. The Green party would be up in arms. Lots of protest, some violent, just to continue digging for coal or getting a final solution for nuclear waste.

Also lots of resistance against wind power generators.

Not to speak of the infrastructure. Can't even manage adequate Internet access across this country 

Charging points in the streets of our cities The existing ones are often used for parking as that is a big problem already.

I'm sure it will happen at different speeds in different countries. And of course, petrol/diesel engines aren't going to disappear overnight. One thing's certain though, we can't continue burning fossil fuels forever.

Petrol cars aren't exactly fireproof...

Most of us here only need it to last another 20 years or so
