   EVs plus charging with a grid powered by solar when the sun shines bright at midday is one of the most powerful forces in averting anthropogenic climate change.

      I would say removing the need for personal vehicles were possible would be a much more powerful force, but yours is much more practical at least short term (decade's time frame).

         Yeah I’d prefer teleportation, time travel and world peace too.

            I do find it funny that the idea of removing cars (not all of them mind you) is somehow seen as the equivalent of teleportation. In our modern society, I get it, it is practically the same mentally and yet objectively they are very different.

            Complete aside, I wish that we had things like that, like doorways to other parts of the world.

            Let's go to lunch in Tbilisi walks through door to there. Once done, just walk back through to home.
