Another false argument posed was the cost associated with shipping the EV batteries. What is the difference in costs associated with shipping a EV drivetrain (battery and motors) vs an ICE drivetrain (motor and transmission)?

Don’t forget about the water consumed to produce the ethanol in a gal of gasoline; corn based ethanol production is a water intensive process.

The arguments against something new is almost always about what’s wrong with the new and not about what the net change will be with the new replacing the current.

Ethanol doesn't belong in the argument. The greenies forced that debacle on us, and once the farmers found out how profitable it is for them... It is now impossible to get rid of it, even though it never made any sense.

You dont make any sense,
If its profitable why is it bad?

Fwiw Hemp for example can be grown very quickly and at low cost and made into biodiesel and old Henry Ford actualy did just that,
Until oil corporations forced Goverment to make hemp ilegal,and here we are.

Hemp can be made into degradable plastic products and fabric,ropes and even car body stronger then steel and lighter too,and no you cant get high smoking hemp.
