DON’T MINCE WORDS, BOB: GM Vice Chairman Calls Global Warming A “Total Crock of S**t”. So what’s with the Chevy Volt? And all that fuel-cell stuff?
UPDATE: Varifrank explains that it’s the power of the market: “He doesn’t care why you want zero emission cars, he just wants you to buy them from him. He’s not making cars for you and your sense of well being. He’s making them so the shareholders of General Motors can make a profit. If there’s a profit in it, he would make cars that run on hamster pellets.” But I thought consumers were at the mercy of the big auto companies, who just sold us whatever they wanted, without caring what we think — isn’t that why the proliferation of SUVs is all their fault?
