As oil is climbing to $150 a barrel and gas prices head toward $8 a gallon in some \u00adplaces because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it\u2019s the last thing we as country need right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s scary that those words of caution haven\u2019t pierced the thick skulls of the policymakers in DC. Proof was last week\u2019s bizarre press conference featuring Vice President Kamala Harris and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who claimed that, soon, every car will be clean and electric and it will save the world from . . . Vladimir Putin.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/KamalaHarris.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Vice President Kamala Harris with Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, left, and Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency Michael Regan, right, announces major federal actions that will expand clean public transit and school buses, reduce emissions from diesel trucks, and create good-paying jobs, at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House complex, in Washington, Monday, March 7, 2022. \" class=\"wp-image-21510168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/KamalaHarris.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/KamalaHarris.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/KamalaHarris.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Vice President Kamala Harris is foolish to \u201cimagine\u201d a zero-emission economy is just years away.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP Photo\/Manuel Balce Ceneta<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Neither Harris nor Buttigieg mentioned Putin by name, but he was clearly top-of-mind.

Here\u2019s what they told me: Of course electric cars hold out great promise, but they\u2019re not going mainstream tomorrow or even next year or maybe not the next five years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Why? They\u2019re expensive for the average person (average cost of around $56,000). Electricity doesn\u2019t grow on trees; It\u2019s created by burning those dreaded fossil fuels or by inefficient wind turbines. You will need nuclear power to ramp up capacity to meet the imaginary levels of our VP.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And how many nuclear plants will the environmentalists running the Biden administration really allow?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Electric vehicles also run on batteries. Those batteries rely on nickel, lithium and cobalt, minerals where China has become a significant \u00adrefiner. That\u2019s why China has also become a top manufacturer of EV batteries.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Vladimir-Putin-14.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Russian President Vladimir Putin\" class=\"wp-image-21510188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Vladimir-Putin-14.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Vladimir-Putin-14.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/Vladimir-Putin-14.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>President Joe Biden blames Russian President Vladimir Putin for America\u2019s gas and inflation woes \u2013 when he knows it\u2019s his fault.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Mikhail Klimentyev, Sputnik, Kremlin Pool Photo via AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In their delusional press conference, the dynamic duo seemed oblivious to the obvious logic that if we follow their lead, maybe someday we will become less dependent on \u00adPutin\u2019s oil but more dependent on Communist China\u2019s cobalt.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re also oblivious to the fact that their green revolution must be an evolution.
