The whole let's save the planet by going electric shinannigans.

We’re clearly going to transition away from internal combustion engines towards electric vehicles, and electric vehicles are clearly better for the planet. What’s the shenanigans part?

He is a troll. My friends and I love our engines but everyone with half a brain knows that electric is the future. Might create some pollution to create said battery but the fact is, you can fucking RECHARGE the battery. Not continue to burn gallon after gallon of fuel trying to do what a battery can do. These climate denying idiots are a disease greater than humans themselves. Think of an antibiotic resistant bacteria.. that’s what they are. Ironic lol

Uh no it's not considering the gigantic holes we put into the earth just to get the Lithium to create batteries.
How do we dispose of batteries? What do we do with the solar panels after their 25 year life span? Cali is experiencing black outs right now and it's our biggest electrical grid, imagine the problems when all 5billion plus people plug in their cars.

EVs are much greener than internal combustion engines when considering the entire lifecycle of either including resource extraction and disposal.
The grid will need to be upgraded, but nothing we can’t handle.
Gasoline is a finite resource. At current consumption levels we will run out within a few decades.

CA is definitely not having blackouts right now
