The manufacturing plant in Canada that makes the Nickel Metal Hydride batteries for the Prius is one of the worst polluting chemical plants in the world.
There is more than a 10 mile dead-zone radius around the plant due to all the chemicals that are spewing from the battery production which involves smelting nickel metal. The acid rain is so bad that everything is completely dead. NASA uses the area for teating of lunar vehicles, since its the closest thing to the moon's surface. ![]() I'll stick to my car which at worst adds CO2 to the atmosphere. The oil spill is a result of a company being neglagent and not maintaining the rig, not a result of people using the fuel the way it was intended. |

I'm not BS'ing, I'm just saying what I think. I didn't say my car is cursed. I just suddenly don't enjoy it like I used to. I didn't say I was going to give it away. (And it cost $42, not $35) I am thinking about selling it, but won't give the money to Al Gore. I love the environment (And I Freakin' love trees!) but I love my money too. |

Then sell. Discussion over. If you don't love it, pass it on to someone who will and buy a Prius so you can sleep at night.

I am sorry but that movie was a bunch of generalized distortions. The EV-1 was an experiment. Those who leased it knew that upfront. When the technology had run its course, GM (who happened to own them) took them back. Thats hardly a conspiracy. GM used the lessons learned to develop such things as the upcoming VOLT. Also, having a high performqnce automobile like the Camaro, whish with 426 hp, is quite capable of attaining 25 mpg, is quite a leap over what we had to live with way back in the "day." Way back then comparable perfomance came at a cost of much less than 10 mpg. Yes things have changed. But having lived through a lot of those changes, I am happy with what I now can drive. The overall, outlook needs to take into account a lot more factors tahn just your car. Oh, and for those who have never been to Montreal, the climate tehere isn't really all that dissimilar to my hometown of Chicago.
