Don't buy anything if you care about all those aspects. Consumerism is what gotten us into the mess we are living currently. Just because we focus on one aspect wouldn't necessarily make us blind on everything else. Its a tiny post shining light especially on EVs especially the ones most people proudly drive without knowing its sourcing.
But there are differences between how EVs are produced. Elons Musks Tesla claims that 0% of their Lithium and other minerals comes from artisanal mining, other manufacturers have no such policy.
Just because there are thousands killed by oil drilling in Africa each year, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy petroleum products at all?
I don't trust Musk's claims. He claimed he put a car in "space". He is a businessman, he says what people want to hear.
My comment on saying NO to EVs is reflecting what DJT said about globalists pushing ALL EVs policy, its about standing up to those who gaslighting us into believing in something just to fit their narratives. Don't believe a word I am saying either. Use discernment.
No, DJT didn’t say no to EVs because of a globalist plan, he said no to EVs because that will mean the death of the car industry in the US because China owns a huge part of the EV production. Huge difference.
I’m 100% certain that the EU and US can take back much of that lead if they put the energy into it.
The US has two big producers with great products; Tesla with the S3XY line, and Ford with the Mach-e. EU has VW iD line, Skoda, BMW, Mercedes etc.
One huge problem is that US under Biden, and EU since always have sold their soul to China. If the EU and US do what Trump did with tariffs, our competition against cheap Chinese products would be fair again.
EVs are the future, and we need to heat our act together to bring the production lines back to the west.
If you think any other industry is any better, you’re pretty naive.
Everything you buy from China is made from (Chinese/African) slave laboring.
One problem with EVs are that owners and enthusiasts come out as “holier than thou”, and I absolutely see that aspect.
But to hate on EVs and turn a blind eye to everything else produced under the exact same circumstances are absurd.
I wouldn’t be able to by anything with that logic.
