Gas cars can be as clean as EVs on the current grid. The Edison2 Xprize car running e85 produced the least emissions of any of the hyper efficient electric cars. On the other hand the Edison2 vlc-Electric would spew an astronomically low 34-48gpm depending on the EPA drive cycle. So electric cars really are the only option for near zero emissions in the future.
I think the members here at the very least should be commended not only for saving gasoline from being burned, but also for emitting an unusually low amount of co2 per mile. As little as half the amount of co2 for those in the 200% above the EPA mpg club!
