* even when accounting for losses, the CO2 output of ICE is worse (today) * electric cars allow us to tap into "free" energy (i.e. base load we can not turn off at night) * we can innovate much more on electric (generation, transmission, storage) than we can on ICE (gains are largely realised) * centralised emissions are easier to manage than decentralised emissions Does electric pollute? Yes. Should we stick to ICE? Hell no.
