"When it comes to reducing the greenhouse gas emissions, the electricity sector gets much
of the attention,
considering that it is responsible for 29% of those releases.
But the transportation sector
makes up 26% of them.
If
that is going to change, the electric car will have to make significant inroads.
Is that
possible?
As for those stats, that’s the US Environmental Protection Agency speaking, which also says
that industry is
responsible for 21% of greenhouse gas emissions while commercial and residential users
comprise 12%.
Meantime, the agricultural sector makes up 9%.
The electricity sector is having success
because of the switch from
coal-to-gas.
And industry is committed to such reductions because that is what their
customers want, forcing them
to track their releases and find new ways to cut them.
One method that companies could use to have an impact is to buy into the electric car.
While the automotive sector
has been a slow mover, things could change if industry gets involved.
