Has anyone done a similar study in the US? I'd love to learn if electric cars here are really helping the planet.

- greglindahl 9y agoAre you only interested in the answer today, or what the answer will be for today's EVs when the grid is cleaner in 10 or 20 years? That's one of many interesting aspects that this study isn't looking at.
- AlphaWeaver 9y agoOh for sure! I was looking mostly for current numbers but it's very important that we work to make the grid cleaner in order to make EVs make sense in the future.
