Carbon emissions just happen to be only one metric. One that ev is good at. Other metrics look worse. There is a lot of pro ev advertisement going on right now, despite the technology not being where we would need it.

But companies have invested money, so consumers need to be motivated to spend now.

You will see in a couple years that things are not as great as you are being told right now.

News just has a pro ev narrative that is blind to the problems.

But your opinion is your opinion. If you care, you look it up, if not. Then not. As will everyone else.
