I think about the pollution produced. I wonder if California is working to eliminate large riding GAS lawnmowers. And what about GAS golf carts?
..........I particularly like the idea of all stone lawns in the Villages. All that fertilizer waste flowing into the small lakes due to over-fertilizing GRASS yards. All the useless time and money spent CUTTING GRASS.
...........California is making a good transition toward all electric vehicles and small motors. The world is going to run out of Oil and Gas soon anyway!
And you never think about the toxicity from the battery’s manufacturing, disposal and waste from their creation or the electricity required for all of the above in a totally electric environment. No one ever develops the whole picture of all this proposed electrical environment. The problem with the whole theory is none of it is viable as an efficient process to eliminate fossil fuels.
