Scarcification

• https://www.ericpetersautos.com, By eric

It will mean less stuff is hauled by truck, which is probably the point of the thing – in case you hadn't noticed.

"Electrification" is about scarcification – my neologism. 

The making of less. The making do with less – which will cost more, too.

All in the name of a false cause – that being the saving of a planet that doesn't need saving – by reducing the number of people on it. Less to eat. Less heat. It all ends up in the same place, or so they hope:

Less of us.

Of course, not of them

What they are bent on "saving" is the planet, alright.

For themselves.

Toward that end, the first of Tesla's over-the-road electric big rigs will leave the factory, shortly. They will not travel very far from there, though – notwithstanding the lies being told about their ability to pull a 40 ton load 500 miles, which is about what a diesel-powered big rig can pull, just a fourth as far (a fully-fueled big rig can typically go more than 2,000 miles on 300 gallons of diesel before needing to refuel).

And it's actually a lot less than that.

Not just because of the time it takes to re-instill a full (or even partial) charge into a vehicle that is the equivalent, in terms of the energy needed to do that, of at least a couple dozen Tesla cars.
