take that climate freaks

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/electric-cars-pollute-1850-times-more-than-fuel-based-vehicles-study-finds/

he said EV (el Vehicle) pollutes 1850 times more while driving 1000 miles than what happens if you drive 1000 miles with gasoline

tire wear was calculated into the equation

he noted that the tires of EVs, due to their added weight, will also emit more microplastics into the air

particle pollution from EVs can also increase the risk of health problems,

>including heart disease,

cough, lung disease and, in extreme cases, can even lead to hospitalization,

>cancer and suddendeath.
>>
>>16079067
So pollution is bad, yes?
>>

>he noted that the tires of EVs, due to their added weight, will also emit more microplastics into the air
by that logic, an F150 should be much worse than a Prius. Do you agree?

>>16079107

>>16079103
But if you can use less gasoline it's surely better, since it's even less pollution.

Sure, and that's why the free market will reduce pollution to an optimal level, because people are willing to pay a premium for less pollution.
Market regulations only stop innovation.

This article looks just at how much the tires are worn down and you are somehow saying that it generically "pollutes" more. This is an incredible cherry picking of a single attribute to make a very general statement. This is obviously disingenuous or dumb. I don't know which one makes me more worried.

In the US and in countries that don't generate too much pollution per joule of energy, EVs don't release nearly as many greenhouse gases per km driven if powered off the grid. Also, people with EVs should have solar panels anyways ( from an economic standpoint really).

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301421510008050?casa_token=VHwDhnFuwgwAAAAA:2u0qAPQjJXvoK6k6drkUlpoBMp-6TVN01uYactqkmnlZ_4Emdx10bS9EyjqO1luYqEy0nAPgI3w

>people with EVs should have solar panels anyways ( from an economic standpoint really).
that's the crux of the issue. if the car market goes away, as far as big oil is concerned there shouldn't be a need for cars, for cattle. if they're not making money out of it.
remember, they DO control the whole environmental movement shit, they will weaponize it to take your EVs away, no need for them if you're not buying their slop. yeah it's a schizo take but perfectly explains it.

yes all you well poisoning shills who are paid by the elites want to do is destroy the middle class while the elites and thr rich live in luxury
it's obvious who your masters are
it's just very strange why you would so desperately defend them when they only see you as a useful idiot for their own goals
I want a greener planet with less pollution. microplastics and small particles are more unhealthy and dangerous than CO2. We should continue building gasoline vehicles on lighter and more durable frames. Cars should be like they were in the past in terms of durability. Being able to last for a lifetime is significantly better for the environment than having ti replace the car every 10-20 years.
>>
>>16082323
Then stop driving your truck to the store.
>>
>>16082340
no kill yourself elite paid shill
>>
>>16082323
So, high mileage, high durability and maintainability? Sounds good. Also, every time you can leave your car at home and walk to the bakery or take the bicycle to work is a net win, right? The less often you use, the less tyre dust you blow in the atmosphere, the less microplastics end up on our fields and the longer your car lasts.
>>
>>16082457
will the rich ever do that? if not then why should I? You're suggesting that I reduce my level of freedom and happiness while rich elites are allowed to not care. Not sure why you defend the elites who create a lot more pollution than I ever did.
>Also, every time you can leave your car at home and walk to the bakery or take the bicycle to work is a net win,
Not really, you're reducing my freedom by deciding for me what transport method I should take. Also time is money so unless your bike goes 60 mph it's not really worth it now is it?
>>
>>16082467
Do you dump your trash in your local rivers because "the rich" probably don't recycle either?
>Not sure why you defend the elites
I don't even. You're just refusing to take any responsibility for your environmental destruction because some undefined "rich" are bad and evil.
>you're reducing my freedom by deciding for me what transport method I should take
I'm telling you how to make your car last longer. No one will take away your car keys and take your freedom to drive to the bakery.

The rich will continue to enjoy the luxuries such as eating meat and driving cars (freedom of movement) that after hundreds of years were finally obtained by the middle/lower classes and now you're advocating for stopping that. You're advocating I give up my wealth and freedom and inevitably it will lead to only the rich classes enjoying these luxuries. This is evil.
>I'm telling you how to make your car last longer. No one will take away your car keys and take your freedom to drive to the bakery.
If those rich classes who own the means of production built cars that lasted like they used to in the past you could use your car every single day and it would last a lifetime. This is much better for quality of life in terms of freedom and luxury than 'lol just don't use it'. You're literally advocating making my life worse for your own sad pathetic sense of justice. Kill yourself eco shill.
You realise that if you kill yourself you can't use any those luxuries anymore, right? So your ideology ends with making people so destitute and poor they're forced to kill themselves to save the environment. You're evil.
>>
>>16082911

>>

>If those rich classes who own the means of production built cars that lasted like they used to in the past you could use your car every single day and it would last a lifetime.
So your solution is to seize the means of production and make sure that they are used for the good of the people?
>>
>>16082918
>So you are saying we should revolt against the rich? Eat them? Communism?
I'm saying that if the rich are allowed to do it, then so am I. They desire freedom of movement. They should get it. And so should I. If you eco tards want to improve society how about you start with yourselves. Stop owning cars. Live small. Stop eating meat. Means there's more for me.
But there's your evil displayed. You don't want to give up your luxuries, you don't demand the rich give up theirs because you know it won't happen. So you bully the middle class to give up theirs. Evil.

>>16082340
You wanted less pollution, right? That means you should stop unnecessarily driving your truck which is heavier than an electric vehicle meaning the tires wear faster and create more pollution than electric vehicles. If you really care about tire pollution then you should be driving the lightest vehicle you can find like a smart car, or a scooter, or a bicycle. You do care about the environment, right?

>A press release by Emissions Analytics suggested that particulate matter pollution from car tyre wear can be 1,000 times higher than car exhaust emissions, and that car tyres may produce as much as 9.28 grams of particulate matter per mile, or 5.8 grams per kilometre. This is, however, a worst-case scenario – a crucial point that is not mentioned in the press release and which has consequently led to the ‘1,000 times higher than car exhaust emissions’ finding being widely reported in the media. Some common-sense calculations show how extreme this case is.

>A typical 16” family car tyre weighs around 9 kg, so four of them on a vehicle gives a total weight of 36 kg. That’s not just the tread, but the full tyres. If a car did shed 9.28 grams of particulate matter per mile from the tyres, then the car tyres would physically disappear – and the car would be running on its alloys – in less than 4,000 miles.

>In reality, the tread of a tyre is about 35% of the tyre’s total weight, so the tyres would be bald in less than 1,358 miles, or two months’ worth of driving for the average UK driver.

So you don't actually care about microplastic and particle pollution? That's the only explanation for why you would drive a truck instead of a lighter vehicle when any vehicle would do.

>>16083735
You don't care about my wellbeing and my happiness
That's my issue
you pretend that you're advising me but all your advice always (seriously eco terrorist advice is ALWAYS) to make my life worse and that i should somehow be happy about it
I love the planet. I care about microplastics and I want all chemicals gone from my society. But I won't decrease my living standards over it.
Also a gasoline car from the 60's has no microplastics and is lighter than an EV. It produces less particulates.
Your pathetic attempt at shoehorning someone into a role despite not knowing anything about anyone just shows you're not a good person, you do not care about my well being, you are not someone that anyone should listen to.
You are evil. Simple as. And you can screech and pretend like we're somehow equally bad. But we aren't. I haven't decreased your standards of living. I would leave you free to pursue your happiness. You do not do the same for me. You are wrong and evil.
>>16083076

These people are the psychopaths who got into control after the communists revolutions. The ones who just killed everyone and then pretended they were righteous. Who torture supposed bad people and then force them to admit to crimes they didn't commit.

They report 36-73mg/km for typical driving. That's consistent with a normal tire life. The 5.8g/km is consistent with a racetrack. A better criticism is that "tire emissions" includes coarse road dust that settles and is resuspended, so they overestimate the amount each car actually added to the road. 1 g of coarse particulate (PM10) is much less harmful than 1 g of fine particulate (PM2.5). The tailpipe figure is PM2.5.

nta but EVs are a serious threat to gas market. and gas is clearly on its way out. so they're trying to fight for a 3rd option which would replace gas, something you could buy constantly from a loicensed place. without the ability to charge from the fucking sun for free.

So you can't do the math? It's really easy. You just take the fuel economy of the car and convert it to miles per unit energy, use the range and charge of the electric vehicle to get miles per unit energy, and then simply compare the two figures.

>>16120115
at worst you end up the same, same fossil is burned a bit more efficiently in the powerplant but that is lost in charging and transport, which isn't a lot (the electric losses).
but you have the option of running off a clean source, which you don't with gas.
>>
>>16120126
now you're talking out of your ass
>>
EV vs ICE is retarded distraction from the obvious solution: plug-in hybrids. There is literally no argument. It's an easy win. That we never talk about it should tell you everything you need to know about both sides of the current debate. It's cheaper and better than an EV. It's better and cleaner than an ICE.

I don't get it. Only the most unserious 'climate freaks' think personal EVs are a good idea. They're shit for a multitude of reasons.
The way to go is to reduce/disincentivize personal vehicle usage period (whether ICE or electric) except for where it's actually NEEDED, and increase focus and usage of public transport or just making communities where people don't need vehicles to get around.

This PM 2.5 bullshit is so tiresome (get it? Tire-some hah!). But seriously, stop worrying about microplastics and particulate less than 10 nm. This is NRDC, IARC, CERT, and EWG bullshit.

PM2.5 will not give you cancer. Neither will PFAS, PFOA, processed/red meat, aluminum, formaldehyde, fried foods, roundup, boiled water, sugar, wood dust, second-hand smoking, salted fish, or talc powder. People claim those things cause cancer, but the studies are shoddy and should not be trusted. This is the kind of shit science that makes people think everything causes cancer, and not just in California. Stop living your life in fear because of shitty science. It’s shocking to most people that science can be bad, but it’s true. Just because science says a thing, doesn’t mean the conclusions are true.

EVs are the best. Sabine is failing to compare 1:1. if you were to choose gas vs electric infrastructure from the very beginning the costs of fuck knows how many gas stations + lifetime supply of gas (with trucks, also factor in the CO2 emitted by them + their construction) is way way way higher than running cables and some transformers (which last a lifetime).
in the grand scheme of things it makes way more sense to upgrade the power delivery infrastructure because that will be helpful not only for charging your EV. let alone that at some point fusion or some sort of nuclear my power everything, and a proper power grid would fit peachy.
what she is saying is that in her particular circumstance, in her particular town, with her particular income it makes sense to get a Hybrid.
smartest move is to upgrade the grid, by far. that costs money and big oil is shilling against it
it's like coming up with a super fast train that runs on cheap fuel and going all
>well the state of our tracks cannot accomodate for these fancy new trains so I guess you will suck cock and ride the old trains, no new trains for you. we are not upgrading the tracks for a fancy new train which uses less energy to get you from A to B, fuck you

>>16142034
our power use increased, and the grid is not something you do in the 1900's and abandon forever, you upgrade it to suit your needs, just like railroads, normal roads for cars, you upgrade/develop in time, that's how society goes, depending on our needs.
if you want to stop gas cars you need to move that service, power delivery to cars, to the electric grid, which means improving your fucking grid so it allows this major move.

The study in the OP is about brake dust. Unless you use organic brakes you have no room to talk.
>>
>>16143804
EVs pollute more than normal cars because they weight twice as much and require twice as much energy. Thats also why EVs produce more brake dust and why they're far more dangerous in crashes.
And all of that is without considering the way the batteries are prone to spontaneous combustion or the environmental impact of lithium mining

>>16144768
EVs require less energy because of how inefficient ICEs are. Regardless of which vehicles produce more brake dust you are contributing to pollution if you produce any brake dust. So do you use exclusively organic brakes? Or are you a piece of shit hypocrite?
>>
>>16145398
>EVs require less energy because of how inefficient ICEs are.
Wrong
If that were the case then normal cars would have been powered by gas generators ages ago and saved everyone a fortune in gas that way without stupidly adding the weight of a ton of rechargeable batteries
>>
>>16146508
Normal cars are powered by gas generators, moron. That's what INTERNAL COMBUSTION means. Do the math on it. Take the range per charge of an EV, convert it to MPG gas equivalent and compare that to the MPG of any ICE vehicle. It's high school algebra so it should only take you a few hours.

Cute how you tried to deflect away from the fact that you don't use organic brakes and are a piece of shit hypocrite.

it's more simple than that. how much energy can flowers capture from the sun in the same amount of time for the same occupied area. that's all you need to know. once you have that value, you can work out the efficiencies (considering that other conversion to biofuel, and finally burning it for motion)

They're more efficient than the best solar panels and diesel engines are more efficient than other motors so it's, how much area of solar panels to power your tesla - 25% but we'll forget that last bit
Say 10k watt car, drive it an hour a day, 10 hours sunlight per day, 1k watts of solar panels is like a small roof, like 1k sqft
x2 because they only collect power during the bright half the year
43k sqft per acre so let's say 1 acre per 20 drivers once you power the planting/harvesting equipment
300 million drivers, 15 million acres. Double it for the semi trucks and shiz. It's acceptable, you plant up like half of Oklahoma.

on the solar panel side of things for one square meter you have about 1000W out of which you capture say a conservative 200W (20% efficiency), which averages to around 1kWh - 1.5kWh (depending on location) a day. for one square meter of space.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_efficiency
>For actual sunlight, where only 45% of the light is in the photosynthetically active wavelength range, the theoretical maximum efficiency of solar energy conversion is approximately 11%. In actuality, however, plants do not absorb all incoming sunlight (due to reflection, respiration requirements of photosynthesis and the need for optimal solar radiation levels) and do not convert all harvested energy into biomass, which results in a maximum overall photosynthetic efficiency of 3 to 6% of total solar radiation.[1]

>Quoted values sunlight-to-biomass efficiency

Plant Efficiency

Plants, typical >0.1%[3]
0.2–2%[4]
<1%[5]

Typical crop plants 1–2%[3]

C3 plants, peak 3.5%[5]

C4 plants, peak 4.3%[5]

>5.4% net leaf efficiency.
>A 2008 Hawaiian oil palm plantation projection stated: "algae could yield from 5,000-10,000 gallons of oil per acre yearly, compared to 250-350 gallons for jatropha and 600-800 gallons for palm oil". That comes to 26 kW per acre or 7 W/m2.[9] Typical insolation in Hawaii is around 230 W/m2.[10], so converting 3% of the incident solar energy to chemical fuel. Total photosynthetic efficiency would include more than just the biodiesel oil, so this number is a lower bound.

>Contrast this with a typical photovoltaic installation,[11] which would produce an average of roughly 22 W/m2 (roughly 10% of the average insolation), throughout the year. Furthermore, the photovoltaic panels would produce electricity, which is a high-quality form of energy, whereas converting the biodiesel into mechanical energy entails the loss of a large portion of the energy. On the other hand, a liquid fuel is much more convenient for a vehicle than electricity, which has to be stored in heavy, expensive batteries.

you added in all costs, biodiesel conversion cost, tanker transporting it to stations so cars can get it? did you add ALL of it? also what's the burning efficiency? let's be generous at 50%.
200W/m^2 vs 7W/m^2 is what almost 30 times less? count the internal combustion loss and you're at 60 times less energy after all is done for same area of captured energy. not factoring machinery involved, time wasted, irrigation, nutrients taken out of soil.
