    Nope, they're typically made from the heaviest hydrocarbons in a given barrel of oil

    how much pollution takes place in the production of and commissioning of 1 wind generator? then how long does it take to offset that pollution by said generator? then whats the life span after it offsets that original pollution impact?

    are the wind turbines renewable?

    i think we've all seen the pictures of the graveyards of these things.

    seems like we need to refine billions of barrels to get the tons of grease needed for one turbine

    Still better in my opinion than coal, gas generation. Perfect, no. Either is EV production.

    Copper windings for the generator are recyclable. The blades are fiberglass however, from what i understand.

    time will tell which is the better option, as of now oil and gas will be dominate on the large scale.

    I live in South Texas and these things are operational and everywhere. I have yet to see a wind turbine "graveyard".

    Fuel cells are the future.

    How are all of us going to charge our new electric cars at night when the infustricure doesn't cover current demand?

    The grid will be updated with the new passed legislation. Well updated everywhere except Texas.

    Your typical line-up of concept cars most of which will never see the light of day.

    If this is how the new Tacoma will look, electric or not, it's encouraging. They are sticking to the North American styling over the Hilux's.

    It's about time Toyota brings back an off-roader in the spirit of the FJ Cruiser or old Land Cruisers before they became luxury SUV
