Yeah, it makes one wonder why EVs are being pushed. Most likely due to thinking punishing the oil industry is a good idea.
Yeah that is one of the problems with synthetic fuel. But that's why that needs to be addressed if we are to reduce our oil consumption, which is what some people believe we are running out of oil.
No matter the case rather than being reactive to the gas stove and internal combustion vehicle bans we should be proactive and make both safer and more environmentally friendly. People have an excuse to ban gas vehicles, if stick your car in the garage with the engine running its deadly to life. That's enough reason for them to ban the vehicles.
Gas stoves is a bit more complicated, the issue here is now we have to choose between a polluting gas vehicle and one that has no tailpipe emissions, electric vehicles many people don't want.
We have the option to allow the free market to let people decide and it mostly will continue to favor internal combustions. Hence the reason the left wants to ban the sale of new ones while most likely about to force older gas vehicles off the roads soon after. They just won't disclose it yet. I already know California is just itching to ban all fossil fuel technology period.
So I'm all for alternative fuels that are safe for internal combustion, even if it does take more energy and resources. The point here is to save the internal combustion vehicles so people are not limited with choices. I myself do not want to abandon internal combustion vehicle technology, but its because others will benefit from keeping it alive, at least by several decades.
