EV's will save the planet (according to alarmists)

[Captain Caveman]

Well guys, sadly, EV's will not save the planet, they're not greatly better than ICE vehicles.

The European Energy Agency (EEA) report that an EV will produce 17% to 30% lower overall carbon emissions. That's right, a measly 17% to 30%.

So EV's have poor range, totally inconvenient on refueling, dangerous batteries not good for the environment, range anxiety and nose bleeding high cost, alarmists feel these are the planet saver?

Don't tell me, it's a start.

Are electric cars as green as they seem? We look at how environmentally friendly they are to produce and keep on the road.

That said, the total carbon emissions of an electric car are between 17% and 30% lower than driving a petrol or diesel car, according to research by the European Energy Agency (EEA).

Been to Chik-fil-A lately? I loves me some hate chicken.

Funny, I don't remember seeing anyone say EV's are going to save the planet.

Must be a Fox thing.

THE ROI on an EV is not sustainable, the average citizen can't afford one and even when they can the hit on investment is horrible

That is not why many buy one. The ROI on practically any car is bad. While it seems really hard for many to comprehend, there are many people who really like them.

Then why the push to end sales of IC engines

And like the above, then why the push among your Democrat electives to curtail the use of fossil fuels?

Lies!

The enviro Nazis will never say that something will "save" us.

Instead, they simply say taking this and that away from us will "help".

This never ends as we all sit here waiting for them to take more from us.

Both sides are unrealistic. One side refuses to address the fact that the future will need alternative energy sources and the other side is unrealistic in the idea we are close to being there.

Alternative energy sources are fine. But the left wants to sacrifice what they now have in order to get what they believe is better. You don't lose what you have in order to get what you want. That is not only pure stupidity, it's downright dangerous in times like these.

There is nothing you can't get you could get last year, 10 years ago, 20 years ago.

Except that you're going to pay much higher prices for it, thanks to Biden and Co.
