The EV industry can’t shake its human rights abuse problem
Because nearly all these stories pushed by the fossil fuel industry have been debunked. Meanwhile burning fossil fuels ALONE kills more than 250,000 people every year in the US.
EVs can be better than ICEs and still a terrible industry though. You phrase it as if it’s one or the other.
Regardless of abuse allegations, EVs are just not the big improvement we need to fight climate change and save the millions of people that will die because of it. We need fundamental changes like lives built around public transport, biking, and walking, not slightly better vehicles in an enormously wasteful model.

I don’t think the mining stuff has been debunked. But if you have a source for its debunking, please share
