Title:Are EVs really better for the climate?

Date:8/14/2022
Summary:Electric vehicles are rapidly growing in popularity as the number of different options has increased dramatically over the last couple of years and prices are beginning to move towards parity with internal combustion engine cars. But once all the carbon costs of extracting, processing and manufacturing are taken into account, how much lower is the overall lifetime carbon footprint of an EV compared to and ICE car? And for that matter, what's the carbon footprint of all the other types of transport we use in modern society?\n\nHelp support this channels independence at\nhttp://www.patreon.com/justhaveathink\n\nOr with a donation via Paypal by clicking here\nhttps://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick\u0026hosted_button_id=GWR73EHXGJMAE\u0026source=url\n\nYou can also help keep my brain ticking over during the long hours of research and editing via the nice folks at BuyMeACoffee.com\nhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/justhaveathink\n\nVideo Transcripts available at our website\nhttp://www.justhaveathink.com\n\nInterested in mastering and remembering the concepts that I present in my videos?
