If given a chance, I always ask proponents of electric vehicles where they propose getting their "juice" –

And am not surprised when a good many of them insist that driving their precious electric cars in L.A. or Vegas or Phoenix is cleaner than a well-tuned hybrid even if the electricity is coming from a coal-fired plant near the Four Corners that's polluting the Grand Canyon (and Durango and Chama) . . .
