Study shows EV owners have bigger ‘carbon footprint’ than others

Plug-in cars ‘have become the ultimate status symbol for ‘woke’ celebrities’

The green ideology that has swept around the globe since activists claimed there was global cooling, then global warming and now “climate change” has generated a list of new words for everyday use, such as “carbon footprint,” meaning the amount of energy from fossil fuels that a person uses.

And now a study has concluded that those carbon footprints are bigger for people who own electric vehicles to try to reduce their carbon footprint.

But it’s not necessarily because of their choice of vehicle alone, it’s because they are wealthy and live lives that demand more energy and more energy consumption, according to a new report at Slay News.

The report explained scientists at the University of Turku, in Finland, discovered that on average, drivers with EVs “have a larger ‘carbon footprint’ those drivers who own gas or diesel cars.”

  1. There is nothing great about EVs. They are very expensive, they have very limited mileage per charge, they have a long charging time using electricity mostly from fossil fuels, charging stations are not readily available unlike gas and service stations, replacing batteries is expensive, repairs are expensive, they are heavy wearing out tires much quicker, their weigh wears down roads more than combustion powered cars, they seem to have a trait of catching on fire and burning houses down, if on fire they are almost impossible to extinguish. I wonder how many EV owners will rebuy when their first EV needs replacing.
