Eco-Friendly Hybrid Car Catches Fire, Causes $530,892 In Damages

It’s safe to say most people are compelled to buy a hybrid or electric car because they wish to reduce their impact on the environment and climate.

Unfortunately, many don’t seem to be aware of an electric car’s poor lifetime carbon budget and wind up spending a lot of money doing very little or nothing good for the environment. [emphasis, links added]

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.  Note:  Posts may also be allegorical in nature, and not literal.

How many carbon credits are they now obliged to purchase to offset?
Throwing our allegiances to political parties in the long run gave away our liberty.

We bought a Toyota Highlander V6 hybrid quite a while ago and the only reason we did was because it had significantly better gas mileage and more get up and go than the V6 only version. It went over 225k miles without a battery change. Carbon footprint wasn't a consideration at all.
