Odd question to ask, perhaps, on this sub. But I recently had a conversation with someone who is blindly anti-EV and he kept rambling on about a “silent majority” of EV owners who “don’t care at all” about the environment. I personally don’t think that’s true, but I may be (sadly) wrong.
(We are both car enthusiasts, but he leans right, I lean left (and am concerned climate change). In case people are curious)
You can also get electricity from renewables or nuclear. But I agree that public transport is one of the best solutions.
I know, that is why I said, if you are able to pay more, so you can subsidize alternatives. At least that is how it works here. You can’t “buy” clean energy, because it’s not possible to distinguish between it. However it’s possible to pay more, and a part of it is energy and the other part is paying to get renewables built faster
