At the end of the piece titled “EVs are practical” (May 23), the author states, “... and they can help save the environment at the same time.” I wonder if Charles stopped to consider the damage to the environment caused in manufacturing two vehicles for Charles to choose from stacked in Charles’ driveway, or the solar panels Charles mentions that become toxic waste after about 25 years of use?
Rather than walking to Starbucks while your EV charges, maybe you could do your part for the environment by staying home or riding the bus.
