Have you look at the process of how electric is produce VS regular car. The process to produce an electric vehicle could cause more pollution than a regular so you aren't doing the planet much for a favor. What about the charging stations do they need more pollution when building them VS gas station. How about when electric vehicle when they need their battery replace how's the recyeling process? Will the battery cause more harm?

I think these are all questions needs to be answer first before everyone said electric car are better for our planet and is clean energy.

Yeah this shit has been proven many times over a long time ago. You can google it up. It came down to the extreme effieciency and economy of scale of the way the grid generate and deliver power compare to the puny engine of an ICE car. Skinny actually posted it a few posts back. Batteries are always recycled.

Natural gas may be clean burning when it gets to the end user but the top polluters in the province are gas plants that remove the nasties. Largest expense in most oil production facilities is clean burning natural gas. So we are using clean burning energy to extract dirty burning energy.

This is equivalent to making a car run on poo instead of apples. Rather than just run on apples humans have to eat the apples and digest them to poo, rather than just making the car run on apples in the first place.
