          Drastically less pollution, but a car is still a car. The tires still shed microplastics (more, actually), the electricity used to charge the batteries come from somewhere, and there’s a carbon footprint involved in building a new cars to replace ones that crash or age out.

          Not an argument for keeping ICE vehicles, but holy hell do we need trains and buses.
