    The general idea is that the production of the electronics is far more destructive than making an ICE drive system. I am not well read on recent changes, but there was a point where that statement was true, but even then the electronics weren’t worse from greenhouse gas standpoint, just from other toxins.

      The general idea is that the production of the electronics is far more destructive than making an ICE drive system.

      That’s the general idea of this article. But many people have the correct general idea that it’s better to drive an old ICE car then to build a new EV. This is not debunked or even mentioned by this article.

      I’m less worried about heavy metals in dumps than I am about Earth becoming too hot for mammalian life. I don’t wanna go back to dinosaur times.

        It’s an elaborate plot, if u were paying any attention you would know that the world is run by a race of reptilians that live inside the core of the flat earth. They desperately want to superheat our planet so they can shed their human disguises and bask naked in the heat of our polluted world.
