Interesting responses. The basic problem with any study like this is what is included and what isn't. We haven't seen a Hybrid vs conventional or an electric vs ICE vs Hybrid comparison yet that we can all agree has included all factors on both sides.
Which kind of means that carbon emissions (if that is what is important to you) are pretty much impossible to measure without including or excluding something which someone else doesn't agree with. Which makes cap and trade pretty much meaningless as there is no standard - and can't be as there is no-one who can make this standard that has the trust of all sides.
No wonder cap and trade is dead and the carbon emission trading companies are laying off staff.
