Your Electric Car Is Dirtier Than a Gas Car
The electric car is supposed to be the clean one, but it rolls off the assembly line already behind. Building the battery means mining lithium, nickel and cobalt and running an energy-hungry manufacturing process, so a new EV carries more emissions than a petrol car before anyone turns the key. The part that rarely gets said out loud is what happens next, because that carbon debt gets paid back in well under two years of driving and the battery itself lasts far longer than the panic suggested. The real variable was never the car sitting in the driveway. It was the power plant on the other end of the charging cable, which is why the exact same vehicle can be genuinely clean in one country and genuinely dirty in another.
