Re: theWatt Podcast 73

Hi Ben,

Great show, a few thoughts:

>The cheapest car in the world is electric, its marginally cheaper that the TaTa. Getting energy usage per km down allows batteries to be feasible now!

>Green jobs overcomes the fact that climate change is not a voting issue; it has to be framed as an economic issue. A second political priority may be healthcare and in the UK we are currently linking this with the fight against obesity, cycling and air qaulity.

>Best quote 'huge typewriter lobby'.

>The tata does better than the golf deisil or the prius you taked about, i think it's 70-80mpg.

>Mobility is the problem, cars are part of the solution but are an awful answer for urban areas. Mass transit including Bus Raid transit and Light and Heavy rail are making a comeback.
