For those of you who are doubtful about using energy from electricity, remember that gas has to be processed from oil as well. THAT in itself requires a lot of energy and pollution.

Yes, using electricity does come mainly from coal powered plants. However, you will still end up polluting less than you would driving a gas powered car.
