Not because of the so called "Global Warming" but because of the medically harmful emissions caused by burning fossil fuels and the cost to obtain those fuels.
Our first objective should be to eliminate our need to import fuels by developing our resources and driving the costs down as much as possible. As this is occurring we should develop the necessary replacement fuels that will cut emissions by 75 to 80%. Wind and solar will not meet the ever increasing demands and battery power is too inefficient. The need for vehicles that are capable to tow boats, trailers and construction equipment is not going to go away. Neither is the desire for comfortable family transportation. Then what about air and rail transportation??
Let's get real about a solution.

The waste continues with the introduction of a useless electric toy by General Motors. This vehicle will do nothing to reduce polution and will cost millions of dollars to make viable for local community use. If it is allowed on the public streets it will create a large safety hazard. What has happened to your logic.
Public transportation is a great tool for the metropolitan areas and the associated urban areas. It is a total waste of money and time to plan for Public Transportation in communities with less than 250,000 residents unless you plan to finance it through additional taxes.
This has to be a joint effort between the fuel/energy producers, research scientests, user representatives and economic analysts guided by logical and mutually beneficial direction. The door is open.
