The only problem I have with EV’s is that they are being promoted by a lie. They are no better for the environment than petrol vehicles and are actually worse in many cases.
Saying they run on the ‘cleanest energy’ source is also incorrect. Even sustainable electricity generation has its own environmental problems. For example the amount of wind turbine fans that are going into landfill and the deaths they cause to aerial wildlife is astronomical. Solar panels are also costly and come with disposal problems. The ‘cleanest’ energy form is nuclear but we aint getting nuclear powered cars anytime soon.
The biggest lie of all though is that even if everyone converts to electrical vehicles it will have very little impact on CO2 emissions as cars are far from the biggest cause of this and there are many studies out there now showing that earths eco-system is adapting itself to the increases in CO2 (plants make use of it) and has been doing since the planet first formed as CO2 levels have fluctuated throughout history.
If someones lifestyle fits in with what EV’s can provide then I say go for it but don’t start forcing everyone else into a situation that may not be suitable to them based on inaccurate environmantal information and fear mongering
