Do you think that Hybrid Cars really help the environment?

When the term hybrid vehicle is used, it most often refers to a Petroleum Electric Hybrid vehicle. These encompass such vehicles as the Toyota Prius, Toyota Camry Hybrid, Ford Escape Hybrid, Honda Insight and others. A petroleum-electric hybrid most commonly uses internal combustion engines (generally gasoline or Diesel engines, powered by a variety of fuels) and electric batteries to power electric motors. There are many types of petroleum-electric hybrid drivetrains from Full hybrid to Mild hybrid which offer varying advantages and disadvantages.

Everything comes with a price!
Hybrid cars do indeed burn less fuel,but the manufacturing process that produces the batteries comes with a heavy toll.
There are a lot of nasty by-products that result from the production of batteries.Not to mention the environmental cost of disposing of these batteries when they finally go bad and need to be replaced.Sure they can be recycled,but recycling takes energy.The plant that recycles the batteries no doubt produces some form of pollution.
But what about hydrogen? Hydrogen technology also has it's problems.To this day it takes more energy to produce hydrogen fuel than is rendered by it's use.
Some alternative fuels are indeed better for the environment,but don't believe the hype when they say that it's a "clean" technology.It might be clean when it comes out of your tail pipe,but it was a dirty process to get the fuel to your tank!
