No, losing 30% of load to save one stage isn't going to improve anything (1 div 0,7 = 1.42, to move same load into orbit, you need 42% more in fuel consumed and other stages destroyed to save 1 one stage)
No, electric car with 8000 cell battery in country with 70% of electricity produced from fossil fuels isn't going to save environment. 40% of electricity in US is produced from coal power plants, which produce insane amount of pollution and waste (coal ash) and more radioactivity than Nuclear power plants .... with difference, nuclear waste is properly stored.
No, powerwalls with total 1,000,000,000 battery cells at 10x cost of one single pump-action power plant aren't going to save environment.

I realize you are just a hater, so this will likely fall on death ears.. However we are pushing past fossil fuels.. They will not be the main power sources in 5O years. Perhaps you should go take a drive around the country.. We are building wind farms at an outstanding g rate as well as solar farms.
Right now renewable energy is around 13% of the total energy produced in this country. The important factor is that 75% of new energy production is coming from renewable energy sources (solar/wind). I.e. Fossil fuels are the past and we are in a cross over transition.
By 2050 somewhere around 75% of electric generated in the US will be from renewable/green energy sources.. That is the future and yes, by that time electric cars will be the majority not the minority and yes they will be saving our environment..
Progress doesn't happen at the flip of the switch, it takes time. Gas powered cars did not instantly become the main transportation system the moment Henry Ford built his production line..
