EV MYTH ONE: Manufacturing EVs is just as bad for the environment as ICEVs. Electric vehicles typically have a smaller operating carbon footprint than gasoline cars, even when accounting for the electricity used for charging. EV MYTH TWO: Producing electricity for EVs is just as bad for the environment as using ICEVs.

EV MYTH ONE: Manufacturing EVs is just as bad for the environment as ICEVs. Electric vehicles typically have a smaller carbon footprint than gasoline cars, even when accounting for the electricity used for charging. With that in mind, the question becomes: does an EV have a smaller carbon footprint over its lifetime than an ICEV?

We note that the Sustainable Business Council’s Low Carbon Freight Pathway, reflected in the CCC’s final advice, has shown that we can be much more ambitious. We support the SBC’s Low Carbon Freight Group’s work, and encourage the development of a National Freight and Supply Chain Strategy as a matter of priority. Role of ETS .
