I am not a big advocate for BEV vehicles. I have stated here repeatedly that I think we should have gone with hydrogen fuel cells and hydrogen combustion but, of course, we already possess an extensive electrical infrastructure. The claim that EVs or wind turbines or solar panels are responsible for more GHG emissions during their construction than they will offset is FALSE. The use of EVs and wind turbines and solar panels reduces our GHG emissions and, of course, as more and more of our electrical power is produced by non-emitting sources, the time for offset gets shorter and shorter and shorter.
There is no law of nature that tells us the the economy cannot be fully supported by non-emitting technologies and implying that there is, is a lie. With fusion power on the horizon, this problem will disappear.
