The real environmental impact of EVs and ICEs explained

Looking at this graph, one thing becomes instantly clear: ICEs haveway highergreenhouse emissions.

That makes a disturbing total of49.9tCO2eper vehicle life-cycle.

Now the total for Base case BEVs reaches19.7 tCO2e, which is less than half of ICE lifetime emission.

EVs are better for the environment.

Similarly, High GHG minerals case BEVs emit21.1 tCO2e, which isalso less than half.

So, there you have it.

I rest my case.
