Even if the entire lifecycle of an EV is powered by coal, it’s better for your health than an ICE.
This for the same reason we transport all our shit in huge pipes from our houses away from where we live.
By releasing all the toxic fumes from carbon burning in areas where fewer people live, the air quality in the big cities will become much much better.
I don’t care about if my Ev is green or not, but at least it isn’t leaving it’s pollution literally straight in the face of other people at the same degree an ICE does.
I don’t think an EV is “greener” overall, but it lets us “transport” the pollution away from where people live.
Isn’t that a good argument? Or do you want to live in your own shit again, like we did some hundred years ago before people invented waste pipes?
Real leftist of you. Pollution for thee but not for me.
Naah. You could easily put up a petroleum or coal power plant in the middle of the Nevada desert, or next to the Hoover dam and pollute exactly 0 people.
Go see how lithium is excavated then get back to us.
And oil drilling in Africa is so much better?
The aluminium industry? Extraction of iron ore?
I’m not found of the left/green holier than thou attitude when it comes to EVs, but the double standards when it comes to lithium/cobalt from my own side, is not much better.
To think that making an EV is kumbaya and flowery fields with dancing children, is a retarded view point, but to think that making ICE cars are better, with less moral implications, is equally retarded.
I drive my EV with a smile on my lips because it’s so darn fast, knowing that it probably hurts the equally amount of African children as the equivalent ICE car does.
Or is your argument that ICE cars are made from water and recycled plastic with 0 pollution or child slavery?
