Except that is a bit misleading!

While ev front tyres can wear a bit faster than ICE it is because the engine tends to be more tourky.

The amount of particulates is over stated as if you allocate the number of grams across a tyre,bit would be gone in about 1 month!

ev tend not to be much heavier than ice - esp with ice SUVs.

Ev breakpafs tent to last about twice as long as ice (100k miles not unusual) because EVs have regen breaking. Many reports are replacements are caused by the age of the plates, not the wear.

Yes batteries have lithium, and mining etc, but this is ONCE in the lifetime of the battery, but EVERY time you use petrol it has been extracted, refined, transported . . . . .every time!!

Completely agree EVs are not the answer, reduction in car use is, but EVs are not worse than ice!!
