This was already known to me, although not as in-depth. It'd be nice if you showed other negative effects of EVs, like how their weight increases road wear and the longevity of their batteries. I'm still interested in EVs, though, because of potential cost savings.,(reply>), If the batteries improve by a significant amount in every respect, cost, life, etc... they really will be better and cheaper. Energy will be pretty close to free then too--buy some solar panels and you have your lifetime energy supply.... the batteries just aren't up to the job yet. the environmental issues will always be a problem, though. just another heavy industry currently drenched in positive PR.
