I want to come out and say that I not against EV's either. What I am against is being pushed, shamed, or forced to buy one.
WHY DO I FEEL THIS WAY?
Are they "green good for the environment? The amount of "carbon" required to make an EV is way way higher than that of ICE. Further when an ICE reaches end of life it can be recycled in multiple ways. Recycling ICE gave us the HOT ROD culture that exists yet today.
Where do all these EV batteries go when they reach the end of service life?
Who knows, likely, (along with millions of toxic solar panels) to a landfill of course!
Is that good for the environment?
In order to be carbon neutral wind, tidal, solar, needs to be ready and able to do the job. It is not. The decision makers know it is not and that's why we are hearing about potential rolling black outs and shutting off your AC in your home in the middle of summer.
Finally EV's are powered by coal and natural gas. This is simply a fact and to attempt to argue otherwise will make such a person look silly.
And this is EXACTLY why the WEF is now advocating for the elimination of cars - both ICE and EV.
