I didn’t mean literally a car, I was going a long with their metaphor.
I saw a Veritasium video where they use a massive engine as part of a whole facility that tests buildings for earthquakes. That’s not something that’s going to be a problem. And in some applications, fossil fuels are what makes sense to use.
We should definitely use them in as few applications as possible, but yeah, if you wanna act like we should stop using them completely, in all applications, you can keep hallucinating.
I was mostly making a joke about how bad cars are for the environment, not really adding anything of substance to the conversation.
