I’m not a big fan of electric vehicles. I suppose in some cases they might be useful. But they are not the solution to climate change (to the extent it even exists), but just another way to separate us from our money and the government from our tax dollars.
There are too many questions yet to be answered. And too many problems to be overcome.
They just aren’t ready for Prime Time.
And the aftermath of Ian in Florida is a case in point…
Electric vehicles are catching on fire due to electrical system failure caused by saltwater storm surge from Hurricane Ian, catching homes on fire, endangering first responders and FL families. I’m calling on EV companies to partner with us to find solutions. We must take action. pic.twitter.com/L4TIuMZNzE

You need to make sure your EV is parked somewhere else after it’s been submerged. Otherwise your house may burn with it.
Nobody seems to want to acknowledge this issue. But even after it’s dried out an EV battery can catch fire. And if it’s parked in your garage, it’s likely the house will go as well.
Not the best way to fight for a better climate.
