I never said that. We will need trains, farm tractors and combines. Farm production with fewer workers available will need diesel driven equipment. We had electric driven trains in the past, and there are short routes that would work. We need to rebuild the rail infrastructure, and some of it it can be powered by electricity.
There is no perfect solution for zero carbon emissions. Not in the short turn. Our commitment to using oil for energy forces us to work with the Saudis, and that must stop. You want to screw the arabs, stop buying their energy.
