Based on sales records it is estimated that about 200 million replacement auto tires are sold in the USA every year.

That is 1 billion tires every 5 years.

Do uninformed WOKE Greenies ever think about where all the material that was on new tires has gone when they look at their worn out tires?

The rubber, synthetic rubber, fillers, softeners and bonding agents wears off and turn into a non-biodegradeable particulates - toxic tire dust.

It is estimated that world wide 6 milion tons of tire dust is released into the environment every year.

The particulates get into the air, into the soil where our food grows, into streams, creeks, reservoirs, oceans.

It gets on our vegetables, into our lungs and our drinking water.

Cattle, hogs, chickens, fish, birds and other creatures imbibe it.

But EV owners are smug about driving their non-green, coal powered, EVs even though they do little or nothing to improve the environment.

If you want to know more just do a search for “tire dust”.
