the way I read it it's to push electricity costs up, since the goal is the force people to use less electricity. But you plug in your car....of course when people realize that plugging in your car causes MORE coal to be burned it's going to offset the wonderful pollution savings from the individual car and centralize it into the electricity generation centers.

cost savings from not paying for fuel? negated by the increases in electricity costs.

as far as the rest on the cap on emissions, I find it a bunch of bullshit before, and still do. Since Jupiter and Mars are also having climate changes....

Or maybe some humans are there driving around on SUVs and leaving a bunch of lights on.
