Are EVs As Clean as They Claim? | Firstpost Tech & Trade
We are at a turning point in automotive history as internal combustion engines lose dominance and electric vehicles rise as the new symbol of progress. Once celebrated for petrol and diesel power, cars are now shifting toward silence and “clean” mobility, promoted by governments, billionaires, and brands like Ferrari. But EVs raise a critical question: are they truly green or just relocating pollution? While they cut tailpipe emissions, their electricity often comes from coal-heavy grids, and their batteries depend on mining lithium, cobalt, and nickel, which causes environmental damage, water stress, and human rights concerns. Reports highlight child labour risks in cobalt mining and ecological harm in regions like Africa and Latin America. EVs also face high battery replacement costs and recycling challenges. While they offer cleaner cities and lower oil dependence, their sustainability depends on cleaner energy systems, ethical sourcing, and responsible recycling infrastructure worldwide.---
