Electric Cars - Environmentally Friendly

Anne and David (my patient Children)went to the first try out of electric car here in Israel last Friday. They said electric car was amazing. Very environmentally friendly, no fumes and less noise pollution. However, some believe that the energy they consume is harmful to the environment such as coal, nuclear and hydroelectric power. Anne said that the battery needs long time recharging and it last only for 100 miles. But even so, she never consume 100 miles a day. Only when long time traveling. 

I'm not a driver , but I want to learn how to drive. So , as to speak Electric Car is powered by an electric motor instead of gasoline engine. The electric motor gets energy from a controller , which regulate the amount of power based of the driver's use of an accelerator pedal. The electric car (also known as electric vehicle or EV) uses energy stored in its rechargeable batteries, which are recharged by common household electricity

Electric cars produce no tailpipe emissions, reduce our dependency on oil, and are cheaper to operate. Of course, the process of producing the electricity moves the emissions further upstream to the utility company’s smokestack but even dirty electricity used in electric cars usually reduces our collective carbon footprint.
Would you rather use electric? No dirty hand anymore!
