Until we get the electricity from green sources, an EV won't matter. I attended a talk from an energy research group at my uni a few years ago and the TLDR was "the energy from the grid in this region is so dirty that driving a Tesla has more emissions/mile than a fuel efficient car". Really colored my views on EVs. I still think the message is wrong to reject EVs, but instead that modernizing the grid would instantly improve all EV cars in the region, without needed to coordinate with thousands of drivers to upgrade.
