“Electric powered cars and all the others are actually worse for the environment as you convert kinetic energy into electricity and back into kinetic energy.” Who the hell told you that? It’s full of misconceptions. Energy transfer is never 100% efficient but if an electric car is charged using a bank of photocells or using a wind turbine or a water turbine or a geothermal source then how is that worse for the environment?

Think you may be splitting hairs with this one - following your logic one may say that there is no such thing as a fossil fuel powered cars since millions of years ago plants transferred the energy from sunlight into the energy stored as glucose - these plants died, got buried, compresses, fossilised thus converted into fossil fuel. Yippee - following that logic all cars are essentially solar powered therefore solving almost all climate change

I was going to post something similar- as a joke; but didn't, on the grounds that it may annoy due to trivialising the issue NYC has raised

I spunked in my friend's aquarium and the fish ate it. I love all fish. Especially the pink ones. They are my bitches. - Anon.

And poig - Not all electrical energy comes from kinetic energy (eg photovoltaic cells)... Anyway in addition to this there are plenty of green sources for electrical energy.
BUT
I'm assuming you're talking about hybrid cars? Just because some energy is lost during transfer doesn't make it 'bad for the environment'!!! What are you talking about...
Their emissions are still well below a traditional petrol car.

Nope i'm not talking about hybrid, i'm talking about the ones you plug into the wall.

So why isn't this thing an air powered car then? I know it takes some other source of energy to compress the air, but the compressed air ( really a storage system for potential energy ) is what makes this thing "go"

So in New York city, this vehicle should be referred to as a natural gas powered vehicle, while up here in B.C., since we have lots ( but not all ) of hydroelectric power, I should refer to it as a water powered vehicle, or in France, nuclear powered? Seems overly complicated to me.
