245 mpg

GL I love the whole thing but one question - How much fossil fuel is used generating the electricity at the main power plant?

Check out Sister Beatrice Explores. She's really efficient and has almost zero emissions.

I would have liked to see more in the way of a detailed show-off of the car (seeing the gauges, describing the driving experience), in other weeks, more motorweek and less talk show. Otherwise, great podcast.

Nice informative pod! Important topic these days.

nice information! good cut and camera work... the thing that bothers me about the veggie cars is that there is major pollution from that, runoff from the fertilizer...

good message... electric is the way to go!

It’s very interesting and informative. We can't hear enough about alternative cars. I'm giving it a greenlight, though I did not like the last comment "We are facing environmental and economic collapse." When the speaker says that and looks at the camera, he is just too emotional and I think it really takes away from his credibility as an informative resource for these cars. I would like to hear more about how much these cars cost, how to get them serviced, and how to order them or become a dealer. Otherwise, it is wonderful.

Very informative! You might try doing something on a more relevant topic... like say firewalking...

Good idea. Maybe a follow comparing to other alternative cars would help..i.e. hybrids, full cells, compressed air. Where are they available? How about an actual test to show how reliable and there ease of use in everyday diving situations?

Another very good pod. I'm a fan...

Someone mentioned earlier about the fossil fuel being used to charge up the batteries. That isn't a problem with the car… that is a problem with the present infrastructures that we use to power the planet.

Because people keep talking on the ground, I have hope that my daughter and my son won’t have to deal with these conversations. Like the TV anchor smoking while reporting the news, these conversations will be laughed at in how ridiculous they are.

Keep up the great work.

AND…

Please take a moment to check out my latest POD, <a href="http://www.current.tv/watch/22026443">BIG MEDIA fails again</a> and feel free to give it a GL if you like it.

Thanks.

Good piece. GL from me.

Great informative pod. Question to the audience is.
Where do TIRES for all the electric cars come from? What about the ROADS? Are you aware of what these are made from? No easy solution to the situation we are in.

Nice work. A bit too long for my taste. And perhaps throw some other interviews in there. Nevertheless it was well produced.

it's a nice pod although I agree it runs on a bit long, but i have a question.

If every car was quiet.. wouldn't that lead to more traffic accidents especially for blind people...?

in response to dharmadogpictures:
You are right that there is no easy solution to what we are in but we must start now and we must all participate. Sure, petrolium pruducts are all around us but this truth should not stop us from taking action at whatever level we are able right now.

response to simioni:
If every car was quiet I am not sure what would happen. I am sure we would come up with a solution to avoid accidents. Perhaps our senses would become more fine tuned. As things are now, I think the blind people would do better than the seeing people as they may already have much more tuned sense of hearing.

Good to see the positive direction. If we can break the cycle of violence and think ahead. Greened it.

I love the name of your car "Community".
That is why we are in Iraq, went to Kuwait, and our Suppressive Zero Democracy Friend the Saudi govrnment .(Women even are Not allowed to drive)
Thank you for doing your part.

the woman in this video is an excellent interviewer.

i have a Bombardier NEV from 1999. I never thought I'd see another one. Thats cool.

Another great pod!! Keep it up!!

Great pod.
But it needs to be more balanced with B-roll footage.
Half way through it just becomes a "talking heads" piece. They are talking about some important stuff so....spice it up with some more images.

I'm looking forward to more of your pods!

Thanx this is a sincere return green ligh for one given to me for my efforets on the very serious topic which is a beginning for our species to not become ex-stinked. Are we like duh? finally recognized as a-head of our time?

Cool stuff. Saw your pod made it to TV.

Check out my pod on a lighter subject.....Brooklyn KICKBALL!!!!!!

I love this. You guys have a great collaboration going. This is well put together and it tells a very good story. I like your passion for alternative energy. You've got my GL and I'm going to embed this <a href="http://mediacrashers.blogspot.com/">on my blog</a>

Congratulations on the win with the solar pod too!

WOAH!!! Thanks for making me aware of this car!! GL GL!

check out my Sony HD vcam

Thank you everyone who is supporting this video and has supported our first video about solar energy.

We have many more hours and stories logged into our camera just waiting to be edited. As it is with us.... the video making gets a back seat to the rest of our doings. We are just beginners at this so still trying to figure it all out. Luckily, our subjects are all long time professionals at what they do so we hope we can do them justice.

There is SO MUCH we want the general public to start thinking about in terms of a sustainable future. Most of this is not making it into mainstream media. We hope to see some other producers making stories like this.
After all, this is Al Gore's network. To Al > “Hey Al Gore… we love ya but that Sundance Channel is on the ball (kicking CurrentTV’s A$$) with it’s coverage of a sustainable future...”

Let’s kick it up a few notches.

Thanks again and keep doing your part.

I definitely learned something here. Very informative and well produced pod. GL from me, and congrats on your piece that was picked for TV.

Also, thanks for your support and comment on my pod <A HREF="http://www.currenttv.com/watch/57173461">BIG BUGS</A> . I really appreciate it!
