I’ve seen a lot of posts here on Lemmy, specifically in the “fuck cars” communities as to how Electric Vehicles do pretty much nothing for the Climate, but I continue to see Climate activists everywhere try pushing so, so hard for Electric Vehicles.

Are they actually beneficial to the planet other than limiting exhaust, or is that it? or maybe exhaust is a way bigger problem?

    Find a different job? WFH? Bike? Buying an EV is just buying another car that keeps our already crappy infrastructure in use.

        Well whatever car you choose it will be bad for the environment at varying degrees. EV is better for the environment but the battery it uses was likely mined by a 7 year old slave. Enjoy your choices.
