Chu Declares Electric Transportation “Inevitable” | Revenge of the Electric Car

Chu Declares Electric Transportation “Inevitable” | Revenge of the Electric Car: "He implored the students to take seriously the need to act fast in solving these problems and to not allow those who prefer faith over reason to interfere with the task at hand.

As one would expect, he talked about energy mostly, but my ears pricked up when he said we needed to prepare for the “inevitable transition to electricity as the energy for our personal transportation.” While most may have missed the importance of this comment, it meant everything to me. Those at the top of the Obama administration understand the need to move from dirty fossil fuels to renewable electricity, and their efforts so far show they are serious."
