Speaking of Green Energy fails

Vancouver's all-electric fire truck is a disaster. Good article overall.

Lorne Gunter: Here are more signs of how cultist our green thinking has become

Vancouver is giddy about being the first city in the country to receive an all-electric fire truck.

Well, the new e-truck will cost $300,000 more than a comparable diesel model, pump 40 per cent less water and have such a short range (30 km) because of its enormous weight that it will have to have backup diesel power in case it runs out of juice on the way to a blaze.

But, the city points out, it won’t give off diesel fumes and will be much quieter than existing diesel fire trucks. Oh, yeah, cause that’s what I’m most concerned about when my house is on fire – that the pumper might be a little too loud and stinky for the neighbours.

If the electric battery catches on fire, will the truck be able to put itself out?

What if a diesel fire truck shows up to fight the fire, but there are a lot of organic farting cows there, so they can't fight the fire, and the whole thing burns, cascading a trillion tons of toxic smoke into the atmosphere? Do we just hope the homeowner and cows are gay?

EVs aren't straining the electric grid — and they just might save it

Some feared EV charging would tip California over the edge, but EVs aren't the problem, and could be a solution.
