And every startup (or minute idling) is pushing particulate pollution out onto residential streets.
People don’t appreciate the difference EVs make just by shifting the pollution burden of traffic away from the human environment.
- djaychela 4y agoI really noticed how much better the air near me (in the UK) was during the first lockdown, when there really wasn't much vehicle traffic in the suburban area I live in. I go for a walk every morning, and the air was noticeably better then. As the cars started to reappear, I began to notice just how smelly they are. I now have an EV as my family's main car, and it was driven in part by this (obviously obvious!) realisation.
