Globally, according to research by the Rocky Mountain Institute, EVs will comprise two-thirds of the world’s car sales by 2030.

      Yeah, I agree. I think trains / other stuff would be much better too. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s realistic to expect them to be as effective in countries like the US. At least not in the anywhere near future.
