Quote from: fatharry on July 11, 2011, 01:11:15 PMUsing alternative sources of energy seems to be very expensive..But still we need to use these sources in order to solve energy crisis.
What about the pollution caused by generating the electricity to run an electric bike ....it would be green'er' if you had solar panels on your roof producing the energy to charge the bike...plus what is the 'environmental cost' of the cells?.... whilst i am sure that electric bikes are less polluting that standard combustion engines...i don't think they are as green as many would like to think..... the basic premise holds true that no matter how you go about it, there is an environmental price to be paid however you generate energy! ::)
