Will "Project Better Place" really take us to a better place?


Hello Everyone,

It has been a while, but I am back!

I have continued my investigation and involvement in green things, especially those involving transportation. There has been a lot of movement in alternative transportation over the last year. $150 oil helped quite a bit, but the recent economic downturn has confused things a little. As I stated a few posts ago cheap oil is gone (that was at $70), but that does not mean we won't see times when prices go down. This current low is driven by the world economy, not new reserves or cheaper refineries.

Transportation still uses the most oil and causes the most pollution. This is why I focus on it so much. Today I want to see what the web thinks of a new concept out there (OK - its almost 2yrs old) called Project Better Place.

Have you heard about this company yet and it programs? Take a look at this for a quick smart-pill on their concept:



Once you think you have the concept just place your vote for or against the concept.



Let me know what you're thinking!

I like the idea of driving green. The charging make be more difficult to pull off, but if that battery swapping works it is a winner.

How many car companies are working with them? They only need one, but more would be nice. Very interesting.
