WAKE-UP GOP Representatives! Batteries DO NOT make ELECTRICITY! EVs are NOT GREEN!
"Batteries DO NOT make electricity – they merely store electricity produced elsewhere, primarily by coal, uranium, natural gas-powered plants, or diesel-fueled generators. So, to say an EV is a zero-emission vehicle is 100%FALSE. Also, since forty percent of the electricity generated in the U.S. is from coal-fired plants, it follows that forty percent of the Evs (Electric Vehicles) on the road are coal-powered, do you see?” Einstein’s formula, E=MC2, tells us it takes the same amount of energy to move a five-thousand-pound gasoline-driven automobile a mile as it does an electric one. The only question again is what produces the power?" https://radiopatriot.net/2022/03/17/where-does-electricity-come-from/
How is your electricity for that electric car generated? By state, natural resources used to produce the electricity. Electric cars need electricity. https://www.chooseenergy.com/data-center/electricity-sources-by-state/
Natural resources are critical in the production of EVs. A typical EV requires over 200 kg of mineral resources per vehicle, six times the mineral inputs of a conventional car. Here are some typical numbers:
