Tobberone

I absolutely agree, but that wasn’t what you brought up in regards to electric cars. As for the stuff you bring up besides the lithium, EVs eat more tires, but for the rest of it, the rest can be said about fossil cars as well.

Yes, you are right, cars are bad, but if you need a car, electric is better. And unfortunately, not all places are planned to be livable without a car. And that part isn’t the fault of the car driver.

I’m not saying it is nothing, but the environmental cost of 1 car battery has to be compared to the environmental damage of 1 tonne of gasoline/year it is replacing. So 500 kg of batteries or 10-15 tonnes of gasoline for a typical car…

I’d rather that than landfill, though. Today the tree tops, tomorrow the stars, as they say:)

I would think that the graph would be rather different had it been “last kilometer”? I’d expect to see electricity at the bottom there.
