Coal powered

More on the controversy over electric vehicles (EV). This video asks the question, "can we call electric vehicles green if coal actually powers them? Or if they actually are responsible for close to  the same amount of carbon emissions as gas-powered cars?"

But electricity (to power EV's) will soon be produced by "renewable" energy sources, right? So very soon it won't be coal anymore? Apparently not, as reported by the current U.S. administration's Energy Information Administration - who says that the great bulk of our electricity 25 years from now will still be produced by fossil fuels.
