It's twofold. 1. breathing polluted air sucks, and we can improve that by replacing gas vehicles with electric vehicles. 2. global warming is awful, and we can improve that by replacing our generation activity (solar, wind, hydro, nuclear) -- but if we replace it all and there's still lots of gas cars on the road, we've still got a problem.
