That argument will be thrown at every god damn step we make towards a better planet. It's not valid.
Electric cars will not save the planet. Electric cars will save the car industry.
But they're a whole lot better for the planet than gas cars. And cars won't go away till we make alternatives. Which we should do as quickly as possible, but will still take a while.
Cars are simply not a good method of individual transportation, regardless of what energy they consume. Theyre just too big.
