Are Electric Cars Cleaner than Gas? Scientists Do the Simple Math

From Recurrent. Electric vehicles (EVs) are widely regarded as a greener alternative to traditional gas-powered cars, but their full environmental impact is complex. While EVs have no tailpipe emissions, they do incur carbon emissions during manufacturing, especially from battery production, and electricity generation to power them also contributes emissions. To truly assess whether EVs are…
