tl;dr:
A new study from Germany came to the conclusion that EVs produce more CO2 than diesel vehicles. EVs already produce more CO2. However once Germany shuts down its nuclear power plants early next year EVs will produce over 20% more CO2 than diesel cars per kilometer.
No problem, we already got the solution for that and that is to limit the amount you are allowed to use the electric car, if you use a electric car only half of the amount you use a diesel, then the totals are less you see.
but.. wait, how can I go to work then?
you will have to move your residence near the place where you work
but,, I cannot afford that!
specially made pod storages will be built to accommodate such change in lifestyle no worry
a pod? but my family...
family? ahahahahahahah ahemm... the state will take care of that :)
So if we had nuclear power, this headline wouldn't be true.
It would be less but still true. As the nuclear power plants are still running, EVs currently "only" produce over 14% more CO2.
