Idiot.

Electric cars don't really do all that much to help your carbon emission problem, when they use electricity created by burning coal.

You'll notice that transportation was only 26% of all emissions.

Taxing gas would force people into smaller cars. You're looking at best, a 10% savings on all emissions.
