They estimate that mankind pumps out 43 billion tons of co2 per year. Of this, 30% is down to transportation. So that's 12.9 billion tons, but 87% of this is due to vehicles. So that's 11.22 billion tons. As the co2 cost of production of an EV is greater than you think and depending on battery size, over the lifetime of the vehicle, you can reduce the co2 v an ICE vehicle by 25% to 50%. So let's take the average of 37.5%.
So 37.5% of 11.22 billion tons is 4.2 billion tons
So that's it, all this fantastic hype that changing your car to electric in order to save the planet, equates to 4.2 billion tons.
And the alarmists that scream at you are busy pumping out co2 themselves. So this EV farce is approx 10% of their dilemma.
