- fit2rule 7y agoSort of seems like you didn't read your own quote: "When e-scooter usage replaces average personal automobile travel, we nearly universally realize a net reduction in environmental impacts." This is not the same as "actually worse for the environment than privately-owned ICE cars", and I'm guessing you've got a reason for your FUD? I ride electric, too. Mine is charged by solar power. Sure, it took a lot of carbon to get my systems in place - but that's still 100x better than the daily emissions I'm no longer producing.
