While this may not fit the bill for the globe saver, it serves as a great stepping stone for future green car projects, be it electric, hydrogen, or ethanol.

I'm not a huge fan of the Tesla, but I think it's a move in the right direction.

True, it is a step in the right direction. Maybe it'll jolt the sector and spur advanced research in battery technology. But I don't think in the long run that electric vehicles will be effective. I'm all for hydrogen.

eh, i don't know. sportscars usually have better aerodynamics and wiegh less, so it's already a good start imo

Iceland (I think) has a vast geothermal energy reserve under them. They're switching all to hydrogen soon (I think).
