WNYC's Rosemary Misdary interviewed some random labor relations professor as an authority on reducing emissions in New York City. And because of Misdary's elite bias, the conversation was all about making taxpayers pay for charging stations for electric cars in a city where the majority doesn't own cars.

@capntransit Electric buses. Electric taxis. But likely not the taxpayer that should foot the bill.

@ariaflame We have electric vehicles - subways and els. We used to have electric vehicles on the street - trolleys. We tore out all the trolley infrastructure, and most of the el infrastructure.

There are tons of ways we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Electric cars are a tiny fraction of that.
