I thought this fud had been debunked.

Are you accounting for the energy used to extract the oil, the energy used to transport it to a refinery, the energy used to refine it, the energy used to transport it to the gas station and then the energy used to pump into your car?

There is no way that the carbon needed to create a battery is more over the decades of life for said battery along with the renewable used to charge it, than the ongoing carbon released to keep ice engines running.

There is also a move to power battery facilities with renewables and when we reach a point where batteries are being recycled it gets even better.

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. We have move past ice engines and right now ev is our best option.
