    Popular videos are shamelessly plagiarized. This is the oldest I could find suggesting it may be the original.

    I enjoyed the video.

    At the end of that video it linked to this video.

    It is a very surprising take on global warming and greenhouse gasses - how little effect cars have on it- and what the real causes and solutions might be. Totally unexpected from a car guy and the youtube platform.

    The title of this video is misleading as he actually complements EV's and talks about what a good solution they are in certain circumstances.

    In my Prius days, I got tired of hearing we were just "greenies" so I took a supervised, home study course with: https://skepticalscience.com/

    I have no illusions about the relatively small contribution of transportation. Renewable energy, energy efficiency, and preservation of carbon sinks are big ticket items. However, the lower operational costs of EVs and other energy savings match my retirement income.
