Electric Car's Effect on the World

This article discusses the pros and cons of the electric car and how it will effect the world. The article is promoting the cars because they: Release less polution than regular cars, require less maintenance, and will eventually with increase of demand decrease in price. A big focus in the article was that the cars "Run silent, run fast, run clean". This is important becasue its trying to say that the cars run just as well as other cars if not better but also help promote staying green. With the massive emphasis placed on recycling and staying green as of late the electric car is ready to launch its industry. The timing couldn't be any better for these cars to be released to the public, as long as the prices can be dropped the cars will be an instant success. The cars will continue to increase in range, speed, and flexibility with the more technology that comes out. The cars will begin to drop in recharge time while being able to travel longer off of each charge. Atlanta is one area that is really making a push for the release of these cars as they are projected to have over 200 recharge stations in the years to come.
I think that with the introduction of the electric car our country will begin to really become more green. We need to realize how fast we are destroying our world and that every single persons choices can help. If every person bought a electric car to replace their own the amount of polution we would be preventing is astonomical. The electric car could be one of the first steps to really helping preserve our natural resources and saving the world.
