What about digging up 100 million tons of earth to get enough lithium to make a battery for your electric car which is powered by coal?
Fake environmentalist love Elon - no reason why they won't like this.
- lukeschlather 9y agoPick a poison gas, buying and operating an all-electric car generates less of it per mile than a gasoline car, even if your electricity is all-coal. It also enables even greater poison control by using renewable electricity sources.
- _red 9y agoHow much carbon was created digging up all that earth? Was that earth also dug up with battery powered trucks? Transported on battery powered ships? By the way, why does Singapore grade Tesla as a super-polluter category?
- scrollaway 9y agoIt's a wonder Teslas cost as little as they do when you consider each one requires "digging up 100 million tons of earth" just for the battery. Me, I can't even get 10 million tons dug for less than $100k! Those darn fake environmentalists. They're right up there with the scotsmen of the "no true" variety.
