gollark: That seems somewhat based.
gollark: That would be 49% or so at most, which is more, although you then run into the issue of "how do you make that many electric cars" and "is there even that much lithium".
gollark: ... unless you want nuclear cars which I have to say would be very cool.
gollark: I mean, yes, nuclear good, but it would only work for the "electricity and heat production" and "other energy" segments.
gollark: What? No, 35% or so can, at most.
