The study cited to me in order to defend the point that EVs make more particulate pollution flat out found that EV's create less particulate pollution.

> A positive relationship exists between vehicle weight and non-exhaust emissions."

As others already pointed out, that is the same study, the same study that found that EV's create less particulate pollution. The more weight = more particulate emission part did not control for EV regenerative breaking. So your position is ignorant at best and disingenuous at worse.

This will be my last comment here on the account that I will not debate facts with random people on the internet. If you can't be bothered to read the study, don't cite it, don't reference it and for god's sake don't try to use it to say something that is literally the opposite of it's findings.
