If you want to go after electric cars, a better angle is the slave child labor used to mine cobalt and how that mining destroys not only the lives of people, many of them kids but the environment.
All that cartoon does to a leftist is to confirm that coal power plants need to be shutdown and replaced with solar and wind and it also ignores the fact that we can use scrubbers at coal plants.
No offence but your comment is ignorant and retarded as you show a misunderstanding of where electricity comes from. Approximity 20% of power supply can come from renewable before it becomes insanely even more expensive than it already is. Without coal and gas providing the baseload supply during peak demand which is when the sun goes down after people finish work, we'd be living in perpetual blackouts.
The solution is massive reserves of batteries which we can't afford, or nuclear energy which the left is against.
The cartoon is correct, electric cars produce substantially more carbon emissions than petrol cars. But at least it will make the drivers feel good!
What bullshit, this shit makes us look retarded.
