Electric cars and cell phones:
Imagine an electric car functioning similar to your cell phone. You have to plug it in every evening. Extreme temperatures decrease the battery life. After a year or two, The battery life has decreased to around 75% capacity, which results in additional charges throughout the day. About three years into owning it, you need to get a new one because of the battery life you cannot make it an hour (or 30 miles) without having to charge it. By the fourth year, it has become so obsolete they stopped making a battery for it, which requires purchasing a new one. 

Do you know how many things require fossil fuels to make? If you removed everything that required fossil fuels from your life, your home would be pretty bare. I wonder where all of the faulty and non-functioning car batteries are discarded? Search it. Interesting info for sure. 

Yet again, media is creating a reality for those willing to listen.
