>In the long run, society goes to 100% electric transportation due to global warming.

This is Western-centrism. In the long run 4 billion people do not go electric because poverty problem solving more important for them, then the global warming problem solving, and another 4 billion people do not consider global warming as a problem at all, the wormer - the better. And under this conditions what the remaining 2 billion people will do is not important at all.



In the long run, we go to 100% renewable electric everything, or civilization collapses and almost everyone dies. Of course, the latter case is probably the more likely one.
