So it IS more "enviro-friendly" to be run over by an electric car!
That's a relief...

Hopefully the source of the EV stations power be greener.

You could have a deal on your electric bill, check this box if you'd like to donate a buck to free charging stations that would be part of city infrastructure, such as outlets at streetlights in the parks.
For the first time, in 2006, over half of the world's supply of polysilicon was being used for production of renewable electricity solar power panels. Only twelve factories were known to produce solar-grade polysilicon in 2008, however by 2013 the number now stands at over 100 manufacturers. Monocrystalline silicon is higher priced and more efficient than polycrystalline.
Silicon is the eighth most common element in the universe by mass, but very rarely occurs as the pure free element in nature. It is most widely distributed in dusts, sands, planetoids, and planets as various forms of silicon dioxide (silica) or silicates. Over 90% of the Earth's crust is composed of silicate minerals, making silicon the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust (about 28% by mass) after oxygen.

Lock said:... about "silica"... More properly known as Silicon Dioxide... With the chemical formula "SiO2", for short... And "silica" is most commonly found in nature as sand or quartz... And ya throw enough heat etc at it, and ya can produce elemental silicon, Si for short...
Per Wikipedia:

And "throw enough heat at it"? Well, commercial production depends on a reaction between sand (SiO2) and carbon at a temperature of around 2200 °C
