• That?s a great question: why burn oil to make electricity to power vehicles, when you just burn the oil in the vehicle?
  
  First, burning the oil to make electricity to power vehicles will release less CO2 overall.
  
  Second, think of it as a series of steps:
  1. Put vehicles on the electric grid.
  2. Improve the electricity generation process to non-carbon sources.
  
  If you never do step 1 you will never get to the point where a major source of atmospheric CO2 is removed. In reply to: "Hawaii unveils plans for Better Place"
