   I still cannot get over how people equate extracting resources to build a thing which will let us do something for decades to come with extracting resources which we promptly set on fire so we can do something for a moment.

     Like, this seems so forking obvious. You don't even need to "believe" in climate change to realize how much stupider it is to keep the status quo up.

     It's only seen as "easy" because it's familiar. Interrogate it just the teeny tiniest bit and maybe you'll find the absurdity.

     @TechConnectify But you're talking cars! There's no rationality to be found here!

     @TechConnectify Well, your comments do go beyond cars... But that's a big part of it!

     @alcinnz these comments apply to literally anything we do which uses energy. I don't know why you assumed I'm talking about cars specifically

     @TechConnectify Fair enough. Maybe I just read one too many opinion pieces which annoy me?
