You might think I’m against helping the Earth, but if you support electric vehicles you could actually be causing more harm than good. what are Tesla’s powered by? They are powered by lithium-ion batteries. Have you ever seen the mines where the lithium is extracted? They’re enormous, and the environmental impact is significant. I’ll explain more about this issue below.
The factories that tesla are produced in, they look like a normal car factory but produce lots more emission than a regular Around 5.6 tones of CO2 are released during a petrol or diesel car’s manufacture on average, around three quarters of which are released during production of the steel body in white. Building the average electric car produces 8.8 tonnes of CO2, 43% of which can be attributed to the construction of the battery. thats nuts almost 4 tonnes in just the production of the battery and there has been 1,313,998 produced in 2024 thats 5,255,992 tonnes of co2 .

the way to mine lithium is horrible to they are big holes dug into the earth imagine what that does to the air. How many toxins it releases into the atmosphere pulse do you think that they use electric bull dozers no they use diesel machines. they use rock trucks, bulldozers, excavator, the bagger 228 uses 16.56 megawatts of externally supplied electricity that’s a lot of electricity that’s 16 560 000 volts. it also runs on diesel it takes 94 gallons to move it one mile, that’s nutz.
