Is charging an electric care better for than environment than burning gas?

On an average car, I’d say they’re about equal. But there are lots of variables that could make one cleaner than the other. For example, the power to charge the car is less than the power to operate the car, so they’d probably offset each other, at least with typical charging/driving.  Depending on the battery you use, the car might also generate extra pollution, or pollute in different ways than an internal combustion car.

You might be thinking about the grid, but it depends on the grid.
