Hurricane
Harvey may have wrecked a half million vehicles that will need to be
replaced. There is no better time for congress to act to move part of
the nation toward non-polluting electric cars. Curtailing greenhouse
gas emissions as far as possible ought to be a priority for the U.S.
government. This is a moment in history where the U.S. Congress could
take several steps to show the electorate that it is not worthy of a
disapproval rating greater than its
present 79%
The
Congress should also act swiftly to eliminate taxes and to provide
whatever financial help that is possible to Texans that buy solar
panels. The new roof tiles that produce electric power should also be
given a special status.

England
has already acted to ban sales of fossil fuel automobiles in 20 years
or so. The U.S. government should itself do something at least to
support a Texas reconstruction with solar power and electric
vehicles.
