Hopefully by 2040 we'll have better battery technology so this will be less of an issue.
Really, all politics aside, fossil fuels are just dirty... they wreck air, water and land. When I went back to visit my home town in the U.S. last year, a gas station that had been closed 5 years ago still stood empty. Developments were halted while the land could be reclamated.
The only natural systems that can sort of reclamate fossil fuels are wetlands, but we have so little left of them in the world.
I understand all the economic arguments but really, humans need to stop ****ting where they eat.
