Could be fixed by countries adding tax funded discount on leasing electric cars, since fossil fuel consumption is the largest source.

  EVs only minimizes the CO2 consumption, since actual car production (especially batteries) creates stitton of CO2. So while it’s better, incentivizing something that still contributes to the problem is not a real solution.

    Perfect is the enemy of progress. Since there are no silver bullets, I would go for a solution that helps instead of being passive. But that’s me. :)

  We’re actually on the far left of all those graphs. If the atmosphere gets anywhere close to 1000, we’re all dead.
