Caution: Friday Rant coming up
Of course I’m only guessing but I can only imagine that the liberal-left is freaking out.
Without ANY Kyoto Accord, or United Nations government enforced mandate, nor any order from liberal-left bureaucratic elites, and without any 
Liberal Party/Canada sponsorships, good old free-market private-sector Yankee (and Japanese) ingenuity is once again going to come through.
If hydrogen cars come into the mainstream, and fuel cells really take off, greenhouse gas emissions may decrease and oh my god oh my god oh my god how in the world are they going to justify bashing corporations and America and capitalism then? Plus they’ll have little use for that cool “No Blood For Oil!” slogan that they’ve gotten so much left-wing mileage out of lo these many years. And, well, it’s going to be a real coup for the environmentalist psychologist industry. Sales of soothing calming herbal teas will skyrocket! Contact your broker!
Plus reliance on Arab—and Canadian—oil will be vastly reduced. Maybe we can swim in it! I’m sure we’ll find a use for it. Maybe we could freeze it and play hockey on it. I don’t know. Send the matter to a Royal Commission. Like I had to suggest that!
And the lilberal-lefties thought they were victims of private enterprise before? Now private enterprise if going to wack ‘em from a different angle. I love private enterprise.
Toyota aims for $50,000 hydrogen car
General Motors, meanwhile, plans to have market-ready hydrogen fuel cell cars by 2010.
TOKYO (Reuters) – Toyota Motor Corp. aims to cut the cost of hydrogen-powered fuel-cell cars to $50,000 from more than $1 million by 2015, when it hopes to start selling the environmentally friendly vehicles, the Financial Times reported on Friday.
Toyota is “developing everything to reach this (2015) target” the financial daily quoted Kazuo Okamoto, who takes over as Toyota’s head of research and development next month, as saying during a visit to Frankfurt.
Toyota, the world’s second-biggest car maker, believes launching hydrogen cars earlier than 2015 would be difficult due to a lack of filling stations, the paper said.
Its plans are more conservative than those of General Motors Corp., which aims to have a production-ready hydrogen vehicle by 2010 with a fuel cell that costs $5,000, it said.
Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, which emit only water, would ease environmental concerns and help cars meet stricter emissions regulations. They could also counter to rising energy prices.
