lol. Weird hill to die on for you but whatever. Anyone with half a brain knows we have to transition to EVs so that renewables can power transportation. But I guess that concept is impossible for you to comprehend.
We dont have the renewables to power transportation. Theyre fossil fuel powered.

Great, so why are we still getting most of our power from fossil fuels?

Yeah i said overnight
Congratulations, you just answered your own question.
