Appreciate the reply. Would you be willing to read more recent research about the environmental impacts of EVs and write a follow up article? If so, I recommend reading "Environmental challenges through the life cycle of battery electric vehicles" published in March 2023 for the European Parliament's Committee on Transport and Tourism. I understand you suspect governments in power and EV companies are not providing trustworthy narratives, which is all the more reason to ensure that your own writing is based on up-to-date and trustworthy sources.
