All companies began viciously destroying all the electric cars they built and not letting any of their customers buy them. Also the video may of said it but I forget.

It's a good thing we're starting to ealize what gasoline is doing to the world's atmosphere.I have one of the original S-10 electric made by GM. Director Chris Paine takes his film crew behind the closed doors of Nissan, GM, and the Silicon Valley start-up Tesla Motors to chronicle the story of the global resurgence of electric cars. A reclusive family therapist craving the solitude of an exclusive downtown loft doesn't realize that he's not the only person living in the same space.

- petroleum companies, greed, corrupted politcs and govements, the list is longMay be the above is correct. Tai, a young man arrested on a crime charge, is discharged thanks to his twin brother Tan's dogged help. GM would then contact those on the list and tell them all of the limitations of the cars, something most retailers and car manufacturers would never do.

This documentary deals with the history of the electric car, its development and commercialization, mostly focusing on the General Motors EV1, which was made available for lease in Southern California, after the California Air Resources Board passed the ZEV mandate in 1990, as well as the implications of the events depicted for air pollution, environmentalism, Middle East politics, and global warming.The film details the California Air Resources Board’s reversal of the mandate after suits from automobile manufacturers, the oil industry, and the George W. Bush administration. It is your money after all, they could be spent for better public needs…Now we have Tesla! I drive a hyundai(cheap on gas..35 city mpg) and I get about 13 gallons to a tank. found out about it they put a law in place forcing car companies to make 5% of their cars electric. According the movie, owners had to sell back their EV cars to GM against their will.

I mean, to actually destroy every single copy of the car, at great expense, taking them from drivers who thought they were totally fantastic… I just think we’d be better off if GM went away and let newer thinking people pick up the torch!Definitely worth watching (unless you’re on the board of GM of course;)if they had kept developing the technology they would’ve been well ahead of there competitionGM shot themselfs in the foot really, by resisting the change they’ve fallen behind there competition! Just like never setting out to do anything won't have you failing either.Oh and btw, where is all this money coming from to re-educate these poor people?The gubment is broke... no rich folks are gonna help anyone... (not in any real, practical way), and the poor auto mechanic can't afford no re-education, he's already steeped in credit card debt.I guess it's a cardboard box in the street for that poor guy, so you can have an electric car.Yes someday soon oil will run out... then we, as a species, need to go off to sleep...As I said, there are better species on this planet than we domesticated primates...@Randy People could be schooled anew to carry out different tasks, like, oh I dunno, maintaining the charging stations for these cars, perhaps. Nobody killed the electric car, the time wasn't right and the technology wasn't ready. He/she can not get spare parts and ect. Is it part of an attempt to hush hush this story?This movie fails to mention that GM sold the patent for the EV1 battery to another company.

I am sure, “Tesla” will kill the electric cars idea third time, if they will continue to make cars what after a sale is still controlled by the company. With Martin Sheen, Tom Hanks, Mel Gibson, Reverend Gadget.

But this film goes into so much more depth and detail. Nearly 5000 And Atlantis is basically where they live. We're going to have to make the switch eventually.

Is American foreign policy dominated by the idea of military supremacy? Cheers.It’s atomic math and involves the addition of the oxygen that is taken in by an engine as well which actually accounts for most of the weight difference.1 gallon of gasoline is roughly 6.3 pounds, of that about 87%(5.5 pounds) is carbon and the other 13% is hydrogen.When gasoline is burned it separates the carbon and hydrogen, the hydrogen combines with oxygen to form water(H20) and the carbon combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide(CO2).The atomic math comes in to play with the weight of a carbon atom being 12 and the weight of an oxygen atom being 16.Since CO2 is two parts oxygen to one part carbon that means each CO2 molecule has an atomic weight of 44(16×2+12).So by dividing the CO2 molecule’s weight(44) by the carbon weight(12) that existed initially pre-combustion we get approximately 3.7.So each CO2 molecule will be 3.7 times heavier than the carbon atom it started out as in that 1 gallon of gasoline.3.7 x 5.5 lb’s(carbon in the gas) = 20 pounds of CO2 approximately.Hopefully that makes sense, it’s really quite simple math when it’s broken down properly.Yes, metrics… use metrics. The only way GM could be certain that nobody was using the battery was to destroy all EV1s.Who Killed The Electric Car? In the early 90s General Motors began developing the EV1, an electric car. It is far from that.Look up "Well to wheels". Cox filmed this special whilst on tour in Australia speaking to audiences and scientists about two fundamental questions ho
