smog that results from millions of cars affects human health, causing a tremendous rise in the incidence of asthma and other respiratory illnesses, as well as weather phenomenon such as
acid rain, which negative affects plant life. Clearly, it is time to move on and discontinue the use of the gas-powered automobile. This observation brings up the question of what
the future of the automotive industry may be like. Electric cars, which collectively represent the proposed future of the automobile industry, are not new. Henry Fords wife owned and
