Comments by "remliqa" (@remliqa) on "EV sales in China, US u0026 Europe are way ahead of predictions" video.
6:45 , umm .. No, upfront cost is problems because they simply don't have that much money to fork out o anew vehicle, not because they are "uneducated " on the cost benefit. This is at best ignorant and disconnected and at worst horrendously condescending . If we want to move away from fossil fuels, we need less $50K cars and more lower middle class cars.

Fume from both gasolines and diesel contains carcinogens (Butadiene, Benzene etc) that can lead to cancer as well a products from the combustion of these fuels . Climate Change is fact that have been accepted by all scientist . Even few climate change denier these day pivot to disclaim human's role in it (and still; failing miserably at it) rather that trying to prove it isn't happening. 'All China has done is to replace ICE cars that use catalytic converters to clean the exhaust with coal-fired electrical plants that belch out unfiltered gasses that have even more pollution than ICE cars do. " This have been proven as false. Multiple peer reviewed research/studies have shown that even if all electricity needed to power a BEV came solely form coal power plants, the BEV would still cause less pollution than an ICE within their lifetime. "Once you remove the insane idea that mankind is warming the earth EVs are just another form of transportation that most folks can't afford." So you think scientific fats are insane? Youi must one of those that think that Earth is flat or space is a lie. Since you care so much about cost rather than safety why now just put more sawdust in your food and continue asbestos and lead to make products cheaper.

@onefiniteplanet That question just show how ignorant (or deceptive ) the OP is . Fume from both gasolines and diesel contains carcinogens (Butadiene, Benzene etc) that can lead to cancer as well a products from the combustion of these fuels .

Outside link can get removed here by youtube mod . But you can easily google everything I said ( carcinogens in gasoline and diesel eg) and found the links yourself . Heck channels that you follow (Transport Evolved, Electric Viking etc) already posted the links to the corresponding studies their previous video. Strange that you missed them.

I already did (carcinogens in gasoline and diesel, Butadiene, Benzene etc).

When I type the phrase ""How many Americans die from car exhaust a year", it lead me to an MIT study that suggest more than 53 thousand American die from automobile pollution every year. That is more than the number of American that die from traffic accidents annually. How did you miss that?

I can find studies as late as 2021 produces by many academic institution (Harvard eg) came out after the one form MIT around 10 years . So yes, there are plenty of other studies and research that do back them up. As said , carcinogen compound have been found in both fume and exhaust of petroleum derived fuels.

That mainly have more to do with the public ignorance on the matter , similar to how legal action against tobacco companies only came out several decades after studies that linked tobacco to health issue. There here have been court cases (such as the one in UK in 2020) where the court have rule that air pollution from traffic contributes to the death of a 9 year old asthma patients. Thing are beginning to change.
