Alternatives such as solar is minimal and not even conversational unless you are on a 4,000+ acre farm in the middle of no where. Gasoline is derived from fossil fuels.

Either it goes directly in the gas tank or thru the round about conversion process from fossil fuel/nuke sources to electricity to charge the hugely expensive to replace battery cell. Huge disposal issues - there are no remedies currently available, for an EV battery system that I have seen. Supposedly will not decompose in our lifetime.

Oh by the way, saw a post complaining about the emissions created by lawn care personnel implying they should have their emissions regulated. How about the nasty black smoke emitting golf carts spewing toxic unregulated fumes!!! They most definitely out number lawn care vehicles. Oops that offends the life blood of TV.!!! Just go thru any tunnel and try to take a breath!!!!
Next time I see electric cart that can’t make it up hill I will go around it instead of pushing it up the hill with my gas nasty black smoke emitting golf cart spewing toxic unregulated fumes. The only black smoke emitting carts I seen was 1o year plus carburetor cart the was probably neglected And may I add 10 plus year old electric carts are mostly worthless.
