However, electric vehicles basically are emission-free at least when they are powered by electricity generated from renewable sources such as wind, solar, etc. during the forecast period of 2019-2014. The production of a battery cell will need as many as 20 different materials from around the world.

There were nearly 40 million such flights in 2019. Preventing further, more perilous levels of warming will require immediately shifting away from fossil fuels, scaling up renewable energy, and potentially even removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Scientists warn that global warming is likely to hit 1.5 °C
