Not sure who needs to hear this but electric vehicles are no “greener” than their fossil fuel counterparts. 1. A half a vehicle’s “carbon footprint” is generated during its manufacturing, and there is no difference between the vehicle fuel types in this regard. 2. The electricity required to power these vehicles must also come from somewhere and it sure as heck ain’t the totally laughable wind and solar nonsense. These vehicles, therefore, still pollute the environment, even if the pollution is generated indirectly rather than right out of their exhausts. 3. Many of the components of the batteries used in E.V.s (rare earth metals, in particular) are extracted by child slave labor from mines in Africa, which are also devastating to the environment. 4. Those batteries are so toxic that, at the end of their lifespan, they have to be handled almost as if they were nuclear waste. Oh, and they’re not recyclable. It’s amazing how successful E.V. manufacturers have been at buying politicians and brainwashing the public…
