Polestar and Rivian collaborate on a report finding that electrifying cars will not be enough to reach climate goals. However, they fall short of admitting that in place of heavy vehicles, we must see lighter means of transit, because that would be to say they shouldn't be making and selling cars and trucks.

@osma I'm a yuge fan of EVs but I'll readily admit they're not enough to solve the CO2 problem alone.

What about heating? That's a big one. When the temperature drops in the Northeastern US, I can almost hear millions of gas furnaces firing up, blowing out loads of CO2. Heating my house here in West Virginia blows out way more CO2 than my car. It's not even close.
