Come on. I’m not an electric car driver, but it’s obvious that centralising the emissions is a necessary step towards containing or reducing them.

And producing them now uses fossil fuels, but given critical mass of electric infrastructure and economy of scale for batteries then there will be a tipping point where the guy who drives the electric mining truck gets to work via his electric car.

Without any progress in these directions we will always have emissions.
