    After experimenting with sidewalk robot deliveries, the pizza giant is getting EVs.

    While it may not be your favorite pizza-slinger, one has to respect Domino's Pizza for being forward-looking. Whether or not it actually launched the first pizza delivery service in 1960, it certainly popularized the idea and, more recently, has been testing autonomous vehicles and sidewalk robots to deliver pizza.

     

    At some point, before robotic Domino's delivery is commonplace, its pizzas may speed their way to you in an electric car.

     

    On Monday, the company announced the arrival of more than 100 Chevrolet Bolts to select Domino's locations, with another 700 due by the end of 2023. You can even check on their progress online—of Bolt deliveries, not pizza deliveries, although that's possible, too, thanks to onboard telematics.

     

    "Domino's has always been on the cutting edge of pizza delivery, and electric delivery cars make sense as vehicle technology continues to evolve. We've made a commitment to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, and this is one way we can begin reducing our environmental impact, one delivery at a time," said Russell Weiner, Domino's CEO.

     

    The Bolt is an eminently sensible choice as one of the most affordable and efficient EVs for sale today. Domino's says that not only are there servicing and maintenance advantages to an EV fleet, but it should also help the company attract delivery drivers who don't have their own cars.

    Another group of idiots who think EV's are GREEN..

    1 batteries contain lithium.. and to get this lithium they create lakes.. which birds think is fresh water.. like any other lake.. and as soon as they land on it.. within seconds those birds die from the poison..

    2. these lakes also leak into the water table. so pollutes the water that then get filtrated for human consumption. but as lithium is finer than the normal particles will end up poisioning humans..

    3. there is currently only 1 country that recycles these batteries.. once after they done their time in 10years. yep they need replacing every 10years.

    and that country is CHINA.. so all the batteries will have to be transporter via diesel shipping back to china to be recycled..

    as well as other animals that live in the ground.. "google lithium lakes"

    then of course theres the electric to recharge these "green vehicles".. which at the moment.. the electric to produced by burning gas / fossil fuels.

    because all the so calls GREEN energy wouldnt be enough to power the country if it where turned off..

    so actually the carbon footprint is actually HIGHER than lower.

    and finally

    volcanoes produce carbon emissions greater per day than every human on the planet in 1 year according to scientists..

    yep they worked it out.. that 1 volcano produces more carbon in 1 day than the WHOLE of america produces in 1 year..

    so in reality its MUTE.
