You may be under the impression the world isn't making much progress on tackling climate change. But several recent data points suggest the energy transition is happening, often faster than even some experts have predicted.
Well, I mean, they certainly still pollute because of tire and brake pads wear but this is just stuff we eat and breathe. It’s not greenhouse gases so it’s all good.
Tires yes, brake pads, not so much. Electric cars have regenerative braking, so unless you aggresively decelerate on a regular basis, you shouldn’t need to use friction brakes that much. Overall, an improvement over ICE vehicles.
