The headline is hugely misleading. It’s a long and complicated article, covering a very complicated subject.
“Embodied emissions can be devilishly difficult to accurately quantify, and nowhere are there more complexities and uncertainties than with EVs.”
That sentence from the article should have been the headline, but perhaps then it wouldn’t have attracted the same kind of attention.
I think the people most worried about there being no “news” on FB or IG, etc. are the FB and IG addicts inside the news media itself.
