  1. no they aren't better, not at all. in the long run they will be worse because there will be more of them in junk yards in the long run because they have a terrible longevity. no l believe in climate change, there is just nothing we can do about it though because we aren't the cause of it. the proof is that they are very shinny and dark colored and a fact is that anything shinny and or dark colored contributes to the heat island effect.anything that can reflect or radiate the suns rays will contribute to this effect. and putting large patches of shinny dark blue panels everywhere will only make it worse, it's common sense. yes it is very clean when not fucked up, but when it gets fucked up it gets fucked up big time and makes the land around totally uninhabitable. the risk is small but it's still there, and it's not one that should be taken when it doesn't need to be. that's why they are shuttting down nuclear plants, because human arror is a very real thing.
  2. so? l just found it and wanted to reply. l am bored right now so l am just skimming through the forums.
  3. that's nothing, not too long ago my grandmother gave me her old computer which had an athlon 64 in it. obviously it was useless so l just made the CPU into a key chain. and she had an acer laptop that was running windows vista and it had a core duo processor with and an ATI 200 for it's graphics.
  4. l man l would freak out if a little kid did that to my screen. and grandmothers are funny aren't they?
  5. yes because chernobyl and fukishima are a perfect of example of clean areas from nuclear energy. lol
  6. it will be a very long time before electric cars become green. believe it or not coal power and natural gas in the US is our cleanest resource for electricity.wind mills kill birds a and aren't very efficient and they are super expensive. solar panels contribute to something called the "heat island effect" which actually will make the planet hotter, and on top of that the production of solar panels produces all kinds of poisonous chemicals into the air like silicon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide which deteriorates the ozone layer. nuclear energy is clean if handled properly, but if somebody fucks up then it can be a environmental nightmare. so the only thing left is coal and natural gas, which would normally release all kinds of bad things into the air like mercury and other kinds of crap, but since the 90's it has been mandated that those things be scrubbed out of the flu gases. so coal plants only produce water vapor with a little bit of carbon in it which is no big deal at all. and there are natural gas plants that can actually clean the air.
  7. no, electric cars won't do jack shit about climate change. this planet's climate has been in a constant state of change, so technically climate change is always happening and there is nothing that you can do about it.
  8. electric cars are not green at all, do you know how many gallons of acidic toxic waster is dumped into the land just to mine enough lithium to make 1 battery bank for an electric car?
  9. electric cars are very bad for the environment, the production of the batteries is a major health hazard for the planet. do you know how much acidic toxic waste is dumped into the land just to mine enough lithium for 1 car batter bank? you would do less environmental damage if you were doing burn outs in a semi truck. not to mention that electric cars depreciate very fast, which means they are easier to total so you'll see more cars going off to junk yards and that creates more waste. and that doesn't even count the disposal of the batteries which isn't very good either. and electric cars are more likely to explode or catch on fire because the battery cells are more volatile than gasoline.
  10. yeah why do we still us it? l mean there isn't really anything wrong with it, but it's a very cheaply designed connector and it's impossible to plug in because hte pins keep moving around, but once you get it in it works fine. so l would have to agree that there should be another connector, but they probably haven't redone it because there isn't a need to.
