Are Electric Cars Worse For The Environment? Myth Busted (Engineering Explained)

Writer's picture: RichardRichard

Electric cars are touted as a solution for reducing emissions and improving the environmental impacts of transportation, but are electric cars actually any better for the environment than gasoline cars? This video looks to answer three main questions:


1) Doesn't EV battery production cause a lot of emissions?

2) Don't electric cars get their power from fossil fuels?

3) Isn't lithium mining terrible for the environment?


Video property of Engineering Explained.


So, there you have it naysayers: Electric is better than Internal Combustion, for the environment and for your wallet.


Hopefully Graphene batteries will become a reality sooner rather than later!
