Electric Cars Don’t Solve the Problem of Carbon Emissions
We know that’s a bold statement to make, but it’s gonna take more than EV’s to turn the climate crisis around.
We’re not saying don’t purchase an EV if you have the means to do it, but there are other things that you can do, and since we are bicycle advocates, we focus on those.
