It’s not about the environment. It was NEVER about the environment. The forced march to EVs is all about controlling the ability of the proles to move. The Ford Model T liberated the lower classes and made it possible for them to escape their masters and move somewhere else. The short range of EVs and their complete dependency on the government-managed power grid isn’t a flaw, it’s a FEATURE.
Got to make the serfs stay where they are, so that they can be properly managed. It’s for their own good.
