they were saying :

So we abandon clean simple tranport because some goons want to drive
around in antiquated technology on one long shot.

Not at all.

a. EVs aren't clean until the power generation is clean. Which it isn't.
b. EVs just will not work for those who do real miles. Who are the ones
who
use the most fuel.

d. EVs seem to be best suited to the kind of short intra-urban journeys
for which cars are least necessary in the first place.

e. Cleaning up filthy public transport vehicles would have more of an
effect on urban air quality. In Oxford, for example, buses and coaches
account for 18% of traffic and 64% of NOx emissions.

See section "2.1 Where does the Pollution come from?" In :

f. In any case, it's only fair to let the city-dwellers breathe in their
own filth rather than exporting it via power stations.

Filth from power stations should cast over retard bumpkins. They don't
matter.
