1. It is believed that we are obliged to develop renewable energy to make sure the generations ahead use them, in exchange for consuming diminishing power resources.



2. Even Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia believes renewable sources could account for up to 10 percent of its power output by 2020 with prices coming down and a regulatory framework in place.

A Saudi official said, “We believe large scale power generation from solar can be achieved near the end of this decade, near 2020. Beyond 2020, the economics will be clearly in the favor of deployment of solar power,”



3. As world moves on to electrification, as a bonus, the cost of gas prices would be stabilized.



4. The Hidden Cost of Oil



The total cost to the United States of the Iraq war at $3 trillion.

But it appears that our $3 trillion estimate (which accounted for both government expenses and the war’s broader impact on the U.S. economy) was, if anything, too low. For example, the cost of diagnosing, treating and compensating disabled veterans) has proved higher than we expected

Plus, the subsequent recession costs ??



the Afghanistan war at a price tag of 140 billion a year



U.S. spends for military 800billion a year



Even Overall US intelligence budget tops $80 billion annually.



Environmental costs & cancer risks & humiliating full body scan and the likes !



5. Back in 2002, many neoconservatives believed that war could be funded from oil revenues gained from controlling that region. Well, it did not work out that way. This war just cost too much, to say nothing of the unintended consequence of weakening American security. If the cost of this war were added into the cost of gasoline, no one would be able to afford to drive a gas-powered car.



6. Some oil proponents say moving on to EVs is gambling, but I’d rather say status-quo would be just Sinking without swimming.

When stimulus package ends, major car builders will be back in recession sales, if they are now buoyed by its benefits, exaggerating EV’s range issue.



7. DBM Energy’s electric Audi A2 completed record setting 372 mile drive on a single charge, hence the remaining tasks would be economy of scale & a network of charging system.



8. As the long-standing Think & converted EVS illustrate, I think it doesn’t make sense some critics call EV technology unproven.



9. To my knowledge, the coal and natural gas generally generate electricity at daytime.



But EV drivers tend to charge mostly overnight with the untapped, or mostly WASTED electricity as hydro & Wind & nuclear power plants keep operating around the clock. In other words, we are draining much of the precious power at night due to lack of high-cost storage devices.



And, in EU & America, the pace of renewable energy development has already topped that of unhealthy energy.
