As a member of the student governing body, you are the student representative for the school’s planning board. They are planning to update their fleet of cars and are investigating cars fueled with natural gas or electric batteries. During this initial meeting they are not looking at the technical problems and instead are interested in the most clean burning and energy efficient car. The president of the board is convinced that a fleet of electric cars would be best because electricity is clean and efficient. On the other hand, another board member brings up the fact that natural gas is clean and efficient and he feels that a fleet of cars fueled with natural gas would be best. What is your reaction to the president's position in the scenario above? a I agree because almost 100 percent of electricity’s energy is converted to useful work. b I agree because no pollution is given off when electricity is used/produced. c I agree because electricity is relatively inexpensive and produces few harmful byproducts. d I disagree because electricity is extremely expensive. e I disagree because electricity comes from power plants that are generally fired with coal, producing large quantities of air pollution as a byproduct.
