ricecakeI don’t know if electric vehicles are better for the planet, Lithium Ion batteries cost/pollute a lot to produce and as far as I know, cannot be recycled or cost/pollute a lot to recycle
The ~90,000 shipping freighters that operate daily use twice the amount of fuel than all ~2.5 billion personal vehicles that are on the roads globally.
That’s actually not true, right? iea.org/…/global-co2-emissions-from-transport-by-…
In 2019 there are 6.08 Gt from road vehicles compared to the 0.87 Gt from shipping. That’s just overwhelming.
I’m speaking on base resource consumption, not emissions. And the main factor for shipping having less emissions is due to mass transit, this is why they say promoting mass transit is better than improving fuel efficiency or emissions in personal vehicles.
