On coal, here in the UK as of 7am the grid is sitting at 79g/CO2/kWh. Our last coal plant is providing 0.89% of our energy (0.3MW out of 33.3GW) and yet is producing 9.29% of the CO2 emissions. Crazy to think such a small amount has such a big impact.

57 companies and their customers.
Until oil being supported by governments with subsidies, until I think we should not point fingers to customers, I do not think anyone would consider a petrol car if 1L petrol would cost 3 euro.
@@buscseik it takes two to tango. There are many things individuals can do, and when a critical mass do so politicians will be enabled make progress, by banning oil subsidies and more harshly penalizing gas cars. It takes enough people driving EVs to protest having to breathe toxic fumes emitted by others. It’s a fallacy to think government has free license to ban oil subsidies and survive the blow black given the attitude of most individuals now.
@@rickagfoster I disagree. Would be possible to introduce changes without go bankrupt. E.g would be possible to say, oke, we do not change subsidize right now, but we change it by 2035, and every week we change slightly, so everyone will understand which way to go. In this case the message will be clear, the direction will be clear.
This "message" that they spread, "oil price rise will make you bankrupt and will generate inflation" is just propaganda. The problem here, you think transport companies pay the same for petrol and diesel as you, but they actually do not. so petrol price can be raised for you but not for the transport companies, so there won't be impact on inflation. So technically possible, the question is why governments do not do this?

Great video. I totally agree. We should talk about what oil companies are doing rather than what tesla is doing. There were so many oil disaster just in the last four years, 20+ oil spill, refinery fires, gas pipe damages and nobody are talking about that.

It's sort of nice that there's a list.
Anyone has a full list of companies?
Chinese state coal production accounts for 14% of historic global C02, the biggest share by far in the database. This is more than double the proportion of the former Soviet Union, which is in second place, and more than three times higher than that of Saudi Aramco, which is in third.
Then comes the big US companies - Chevron (3%) and ExxonMobil (2.8%), followed by Russian’s Gazprom and the National Iranian Oil Company. After that are two investor-owned European firms: BP and Shell (each with more than 2%) and then Coal India.

No carbon tax is necessary, only a reduction in oil company subsidies
I agree. Stop subsidizing oil, gas, and coal!
There are no direct subsidies of fossil fuels
That would be the right place to start. After that, start taxing emissions at the level of the past, current and projected damages caused by these emissions. The alternatives to avoid these damages entirely would be implemented globally within 10 years.

Great video Sam . I did work for BHP for a short time and I had advised them to put in a battery pack for there admission on a mine site here in SA as a safety issue due to a Power out that left admin in the dark using there mobile phones to light the office.
Wasn't there long after that. As Sandy Monro says , they don't like good ideas if the manager doesn't like it .
Keep smiling everyone

It takes two to tango…Producers and consumers. People shouldn’t blame oil companies but instead they should look in their driveway and ask themselves, “Why am I driving an internal combustion engine car instead of an EV?” Buy an EV and instantly drop oil demand. Demand from consumers will always be met by supply from producers. It’s on the consumers to reduce oil usage and buy EV’s.
They say the same thing about drug use, but we are addicted.
@@tedmoss
Addictions can be beaten, and there's no better feeling than triumph over an addiction.
That’s like blaming the slave for working
They why are we going after gas cars? Why are we going after farm machinery and trucks? Why are we going after cow farts?
Actually cow burps. Progress is being made in progressive countries.
It's all about control and reducing Western consumption. It will not end well.
"We" aren't going after cow farts, we are going after the thing that kills 2 million people a year in the world, the ICE car (and trucks). Plus injuring millions.
MOOOOOO
All a con, well before the industrial revolution, there were millions and millions of bison and other similar grazing livestock roaming cross the plains of America and Asia, they made no difference to the climate then with their burps or farts!
civilization would collapse without them, that is obvious without even looking deeper at this data.
we should not hate blindly on fossil etc, this was a massive improvement for humanity, we as a species will and are transitioning to sustainability right now.
instead of pointing fingers and blaming, we should emphasize on innovation.
it's all on it's way, it happens naturally, when cost of renewable is lower than fossil it will happen naturally and quickly.
manufacturing storage solutions is where it's all at, and prices of batteries are dropping by the minute.
yes, batteries are the solution, at the end of the day, battery always wins, yes even for cities and planes and ships.
One reason is corporations are acquisitive and the same activities are condensed into fewer entities.
I guess the other question is: what percentage of product are they responsible for? And how does it compare with the emissions of other companies in their sector, since some products naturally have more emissions. This is like comparing emissions of two countries by looking at their absolute emissions rather than per capita. If you make this logical error then anything big will seem bad.
Regarding shares obviously people can let go of any stock in these companies however not many realise every time they put their money into a bank or pension fund it funds weapons and oil…
Australia is the highest emmitter of greenhouse, per capita, than any other developed nation.
So? We are responsible for less than 1 percent of of the world's CO2 emissions. Even if Australia reduced its emissions to zero, it would have FA effect .
@@robertfonovic3551 my understanding is that our emissions are still rising.
@@robertfonovic3551 yes, so if I reduced your wages from 1000 dollars a week to 10 dollars or less they should accept that, no one would, so things should be put in context, start with the really big stuff first, then jump on the farmers when there is nothing left!
So-we don't have any responsibility!!! Wow!!
@@robertfonovic3551
@@robertfonovic3551
People use the same argument here in Canada. 1% is still 1%, if every nation that only produced 1% halved its emissions that would be tens, to hundreds of tons less pollution of all kinds.
Since you live in Australia, if Australia reduced its emissions in a noticeable way, you, and other Australians would be the major beneficiaries of that reduction. So when you say it wouldn't have much affect, it would as Sam pointed out have a HUGE affect on Australian's health.
The same is true here in Canada, and every other country.
This is a major reason WHY China is going gung ho on renewables.
The other reason is not to have to buy fossil fuels from those of us that produce them.
Just discovered that Australians put the pressure when pronouncing DATA the same way as we do in Denmark. Only we pronounce the T as T and not as a D.
the large wide cement looking towers are all cooling towers (some of them are nuclear plants shown others are oil power generating) yes the red striped towers are smokestacks but the huge fat ones are just steam
He doesn't know that.
Little knowledge, a lot of content!
Video is probably AI generated. I doubt Sam sits there editting video all night with the amount of videos he makes
No, they are not, they are coal burning not oil.
Lots of emissions in creating that steam!
I had inherited several shares of Chevron stock from my grandmother twenty some years ago and have never regretted cashing out immediately and divesting from that polluting "blue chip" stock. Now, I am invested in Tesla stock and it feels much better to invest in "clean air" vehicles. Peace
So the question is however, is that number including the retail burning of their end products by consumers or is that number just the manufacturing of the products before consumer use? Because if the retail use is included in that then the production numbers are probably only 10-20% of that total and they can't solve most of the problem at the point of production.
Good vid. In Australia the coal companies have a new trick to keep them open. They want to burn trees that farmers dig out of pasture. Called invasive native vegetation…..or in other words just the local trees. They are going to pay the farmers for this biomass” and pump out more carbon in transporting it to the power station, calling this is “decarbonising” to get to net zero!!!
They reckon that the trees would decompose and release carbon anyway. But how about subsidising the farmers NOT to farm on marginal land that is almost desert instead of subsidising them to rip out the trees and release more carbon 😂
There seems to be no end to the greenwashing the legacy companies will do to go on polluting
Exactly. The UK imports wood pellets from Canada. They are burnt to produce electricity. How is this GREEN?😅
@@robertfonovic3551 They are fooling you.
Emissions go up as less people starve. So....
Global pollution kills 9 million people a year! If the world warms by just two degrees Celsius, 80 million more people will face hunger by 2050!
Emissions are going up and more and more people are starving because their farmland is drying up as well as other reasons, mostly man made.
The nuclear power plant "smoke" image was actually steam.
He doesn't know that.
Little knowledge, a lot of content!
but was it pure clean steam from clear water, or....?
Yes @@Seventh7Art
Nuclear power plants and coal power plants may have those big chimneys. The power plants shown in the video apparently are coal energy plants from China according to stock footage 🤷♂️
and what happens to nuclear waste, smart guy?
Often these "initiatives" are a front for the powerful to do business as they see fit.
In the US, any legislation that promises to do something, often does the opposite by design.
An act to reduce emissions almost certainly protects the polluters.
How does a company like Shell account for 2.1% of global CO2 emissions? Or do you mean all their customers including yourself using their products?
Making gasoline costs energy, they use a lot and don't pay the cost of the pollution.
Oil rigs and refineries burn different gasses straight to sky. When Russian gas line to Germany was sabotaged they burned it a lot to sky before production was shut down.
It's both.
The companies make a lot of emissions producing their "products", and we make even more using those products.
So any way we can find to lower their productivity, and reduce our consumption hurts them, and benefits us.
While reducing our consumption won't win the day by itself, since there is 8 billion of us, we can, if a whole lot of us pull in the same direction, make a significant difference. The more of us that reduce our consumption, the less that is burned and that's a very good feeling.
@@jimthain8777 So, to be short: it's a bit suggestive to say that 57 companies cause the problem. Not really helping to solve it.
How is this figure worked out, actual emission at source or including the emissions of the end product, it's use, it's distribution, it's reuse and it's disposal?
In most cases, it's not the producer that does the polluting, it's the end user of the products that they manufacture
@@robertfonovic3551 Except for oil, that is true. Oil uses a lot of energy to produce gasoline.
top companies are all oil producers
since they sell oil rather than burn it i imagine the study just looks at fossil fuels sold and just assumes they are released into the atomsphere
in reality it's all of us, humanity, that's burning it
well for the most part, lots of oil, coal, etc is used without being released into the atmosphere but i guess it's a tiny percentage
Craziest part is "environmentalists" don't say anything about these 57. Only the few EV companies reducing overall global carbon emissions. Humans deserve what we get.
Heinz?
Thanks. Your report prompted me to research low-carbon cement / cement-substitute companies. Many promising new start-up ventures, with good prospects, such as Brimstone Energy, Oakland, California. Might be worth your time.
Thanks Sam for surfacing this report.
For balance, and because someone else is likely to have this thought as well: The linked United Nations climate change report has in it the following statement: "The world is now warming faster than at any point in recorded history."
OK, so does "recorded history" mean since humans have been in existence, or does it mean back to even before humans started messing with the world (this can be determined using drilled cores from various places around the earth as the basis for evaluating what the atmosphere was like prior to humans. I could see that statement being interpreted either way.
However, either way, what's going on now is bad news. The fact that even prior to humans, e.g. in the the Pliocene era 5.3 - 2.6 million years ago, the Earth's atmosphere has had 427 ppm of CO2. This is slightly more than the 426.35 ppm recorded already as recently as this year. During the Pliocene, temperatures were 3 - 4C hotter, and sea levels were 20 meters higher than they are today.
So yeah, the climate we are trying to avoid as a thing of our making, and knowing the consequences of CO2 levels being at these level is kinda indisputable; It's already happened and it isn't where you want to be.
I am still wondering, recorded history, wouldn't have enough data points for a planet 5 billion years old to show anything, the poles have melted before and will again regardless of our endeavours and a few evs wont stop it and if we keep clearing land and breeding uncontrolled it will get worse not better
Consider, the Sun is hotter today then in the past. Every year it gets hotter. We will burn up.
@@mick1535
The difference is between them melting over several tens of thousands of years where you hardly notice the difference, and what happened at the end of the last Ice Age, when the melt happened relatively fast and humans had to abandon place they were living and move to higher ground. That higher ground is our current sea level. If we speed up warming enough we could see sea levels rise that fast again, in OUR lifetimes. That would not be a good thing for civilization. It would cost trillions of dollars at the very least. If we keep going as we are, we might just make that happen so fast that we would have to start abandoning coastal cities around the world. Most people, including climate scientists don't believe that is possible, but they don't know everything, and they have never been able to tell me what the fastest rate of ice melt possible is. So I assume that like temperatures it can keep increasing until something stops it from dong so.
@@jimthain8777 Thanks for your input , I dont believe its possible to reverse, with the defoliation of the worlds forests, the ever increasing population and other factors, its more than just mandate everyone have EVs which creates other problems air travel for one, we dont want planes that have teething problems, any way I agree climate scientists havent got the data, appreciate your view and you have at l looked into it, EV are only a part of the solution they are great for the population centres but no good for me. Cheer's
By "recorded history", they mean since the late 1800s, when modern thermometers came into common use. The charter of the IPCC directs it to produce alarming reports about world climate, and so it does.
Temperatures were likely warmer during the Medieval Warm Period (hence its name) during which vikings settled a North Atlantic island that they called Greenland. They were later driven off of it during the Little Ice Age (by natural climate change).
Excellent information! 🎉😊
Know what we wouldn't have if these companies didn't exist? Food. Didn't think of that, did you?
we had food long before any of those companies existed.
@davidinkster1296 sure, but not in the same quantities or the affordability. Industrialisation as been a massive positive for mankind. May I suggest that you start reading History books.😊
@@robertfonovic3551 May I suggest you get some real information from your history books, reading them has not gotten you to think. I have read lots of books not just history, information is there but you have to understand it.
@@davidinkster1296 We did NOT have enough food to feed 8 BILLION people before these companies existed. Please educate yourself. You could start with the book: How the World Really Works, by Vaclav Smil. On the cover, there is a quote from Bill Gates: "There is no author whose books I look forward to more than Vaclav Smil." I'm not a Bill Gates Fan, but at least he is open to education.
I’ve always said if you just cracked down on the top 500 worldwide corporations producing the most emissions, waste, plastics, etc and get them to come up with solutions as a group (with some govt assistance) the little folks like us wouldn’t even have to do much more..as most of the problems stem from these sources
We'd still have to do our part, but if we actually both cooperated on it, we could surprise ourselves with how fast emission could come down.
The incentive that is lacking is one to encourage these companies to do business differently.
If we could incentivize making money from not burning, but making other products out of this resource, we'd be a long way along the road of fewer emissions.
57 companies..... but all of us should pay extra taxes for all their irresponsible damage
'A mere 57 oil, gas, coal and cement producers are directly linked to 80% of the world's global fossil CO2 emissions since the 2016 Paris Climate agreement, a study has shown'. So, if I get this right, consumers demand these products for fuel, paint, plastics, medicines, road, houses and a host of other things but it's those companies that are responsible? So which car companies are accountable for the deaths on the roads? Which arms manufacturers are accountable for the deaths from those weapon?

Funny🥸. I just i had thought of it. Lucky bastard!
Still man made C02 is miniscule compared to natural origin.
Which has nothing to do with the problem at hand; how to reduce CO2 to reduce global heating.
@@tedmoss If .0012308% of greenhouse gases are manmade, including .000192% of the atmosphere is manmade C02 how much of an effect can man have by reducing it? That would be like approaching a flood and removing a bucket's worth of water.

It will be tough to get them to push a strong climste agenda. The best we can hope for is the renewable energy become notable cheaper and that there is a compelling business case for switching from fossile fuels to renewable
What you say has already happened. Where have you been?
If 57 companies are causing the emissions, why are only the UK tax payer paying for this crime
No use focusing on these companies. They only respond to demand. Emissions will decrease as zero-emission alternatives become cheaper and their customers switch over.

The consumers are just as responsible as the producers.
The producers are profiting from the pollution of the planet. Worse, the producers have known for decades how they were polluting but kept on. Stop subsidizing them! Those fossil fuels represent a cost for most consumers, not a profit. Big difference.

so if we break down these compagnies into smaller bits they are not top 10 emmitters? are emissions lowered by that? you have to look at how god or bad they are at producing one unit of there stuff.
To be fair they are likely also responsible for most of the jobs and most of the development in this world, notwithstanding that the world now has to move beyond fossil fuels.
If only those people could shift to solar, wind, geothermal and LFTR industries.
to be fair, the US lead industry also employed a lot of people...what a dumb statement to make
Also, to be fair, the companies on that list are also responsible for spreading FUD about alternatives to fossil fuels and doing everything the can to keep humanity from moving forward on clean energy.
@@DonKiyotenot true. Look at Texas renewable energy. Its also the third largest oil producer in the world.
In the U.S., big oil is the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact States. Exxon is nothing more than a hired hand to produce States natural resources.
Methane is the main problem. And people should stop flying around the globe for some weekend shopping.
Sam, I really like your videos, but the one in particular, is not telling the entire story, or being perfectly truthful and honest.
The Oil & Gas Producing companies, extract the volumes for sale. Those Sales volumes of Oil and Gas are then used by yourself (most likely to some extent, unless you are entirely “Off Grid” in Melbourne, Australia, where you’ve stated that you live), and your Viewers, to transport yourselves, your children, etc. to and from work & school. Additionally, Trucking companies use those same volumes, now refined into useable products, to run the trucks used to transport to Groceries to your local outlets, etc., etc.
At the present time, Humanity does not have a “flick-of-a-switch” alternative to displace the Oil & Gas Volumes with Renewable Energy. We have made incredible technological & economic improvements, that has certainly displaced substantial Oil and Gas Volumes from being extracted and consumed. Undoubtedly, as progress in the next 20 yrs unfolds, the Developed World will continue to “Transition” away from needing ever increasing Oil and Gas Volumes to build additional, plus maintain, the existing Infrastructure (roads, water, sewer, housing, airports, etc.) that many persons, conveniently, refuse to acknowledge was built by having Cheap and Plentiful volumes of Oil and Gas, that used to power the machines to build the overwhelming majority of our Infrastructure.
Humanity is transitioning away from continued expanding used of Oil and Gas, but takes time.
Please reconsider “Demonizing” and suggesting that we Boycott the Oil and Gas Producers that have helped Humanity reach the level to which we have become accustomed in the Developed World.
The Developing World is going to benefit from the progress being made commercially Cheap, to Leap-Frog on the Infrastructure use of Oil and Gas.
Thanks for reading this far.

Bah, we could replace the whole shebang in 10 years if we wanted to. Its been done before. (You didn't know that we switched from horses to cars in 10 years, did you).
I'm hoping that his zealotry is driven by ignorance, it usually is. I'm fairly figuring that he didn't row a boat from Melbourne to Thailand. More than likely he can thank shell for that.
He probably doesn't realise that the air conditioner in his apartment in Thailand is driven mainly by gas, coal and oil. But hey, you make sure that you do the right thing.
Your use of the term "emissions" is accurate. Your video examples mostly show water vapor emissions, which is by far the largest green house gas - 70%. Man-made carbon emissions add about 0.04 % of greenhouse emissions. Fossil fuels is not a death sentence to the earth. Watch Climate: The Movie if you want to see the scientific proof. Reducing fossil fuels is not a good idea if it precedes adequate replacement energy resources. The poor and lower income people suffer the most from expensive or unavailable electric power. Coal and natural gas are far superior to dung and wood to burn for heating and cooking in third world countries. Poverty is the greatest contributor to carbon use. Getting peoples income up will actually reduce carbon emissions. See, False Alarm, Bjorn Lomborg. Draconian measures to decrease fossil fuel use in 1st world countries has been ineffective and futile worldwide. The majority of non-English speaking countries want their share of the good life and will not or cannot stop using fossil fuels. I fully agree that Tesla gets a bad rap, but buying a Tesla should not be to save the planet. Buy one because it is a great vehicle.
That garbage movie has been thoroughly debunked over and over again by actual scientific journals. The movie used worn-out talking points that have been proven as deceptive or outright false repeatedly,. It was produced by complete hucksters eager to cash in on anti-Science climate deniers.
If fossil fuels are not the problem then moving to EV isn’t the problem either because every EV can be charged by an enormous list of options. Solar, diesel, wind, wood gas, coal, and geothermal. EVs are not the solution but they are not the problem and they are flexible. ICE vehicles are limited.
Just a quick question, have you read the IPCC summary report, the result of consensus across hundreds of climate scientist and analysing the bulk of the total world climate research. The escalation of impacts is becoming far worse than expected, the UN climate lead has given a two year warming. If you are not a climate scientist it may pay to take more notice of the advice from the vast majority that are funded by corporate related so called think tanks.
Contraception in 3rd world countries helps.
@@Longtack55you should explain that to Musk😅😅
we are actually in a cooling period in our recent past and future... odd you don't know that - might take 1000 years to get there but we are not in a warming BIG PICTURE trend. No one is talking about a 20 or 50 yr chunk of time-frame.
I believe in 97% of climate scientists not quack youtubers
Clueless pseudoscience and disinformation
@@larryc1616you should do some research into how that 97 percent figure was derived. Do you not believe that so called climate scientists dont have their snouts in the trough. Are you gullible?
It's easy to blame China but the West wanted lower priced products so exported our manufacturing there. We got vheaper products, lost millions of jobs, but we own those emissions. We just off-shored them. And you can blame the oil companies, but if they stopped pumping the global I'm economy would collapse overnight. They are simply meeting our insatiable demand for more energy. Your analysis is so simplistic it's embarrassing. How many people do you know who are conscientiously living liw carbon life? I don't know many here in Boston, Massachusetts. Most people are focused on their day-to-day lives and struggles. Sure, they care, but even highly educated, high income folks here are stressed to the max.
I see you are giving investment advice again.
Electric Viking's investment advice is better than that from Wall Street. Let me reinforce it: Sell your stocks in gas and oil NOW while it is still worth something.
The managers of this planet don't give a hoot about CC = $$$$$ first uhmmm you and me clearly not their problem!!!
Please tell me who these guys are.
That power station photo may as well be the hot springs of Iceland.
The hot springs produces electric power without any appreciable pollution.
Showing pictures of coal burners and talking about oil, are you trying to confuse us?
wow
LoL - where is Grumpy Greta?
Could you say it slower please?
I think you have misunderstood the report. Those companies are listed based on their production of fossil fuel not their use/emissions. It's kinda like blaming farmers for your obesity while shoving another hamburger in your mouth.
Lol the planet is going to go through its cycles no matter what we do.
Disinformation and denial.
@@douglaswatt1582not so. Its a fact. You obviously have no knowledge of history.
*You are so cool really i like your videos so much* 😊
What global warming? The earth is actually in a cooling period, which is perfectly natural and normal.
It is, but average temperatures keep rising.
@@davidbrayshaw3529 Yes, that's what the weather does naturally, and next decade they could be lowering.
@@saxonwarrior388 Climate is a description of a long term weather pattern.
The terms "climate" and "weather" are not interchangeable. Weather is measured over a period of a day or a week, or even months. Climate is measured over a decade, a century or millennia.
Hopefully the climate will return to historically normal levels in the next decade or so and remain as such.

Aramco was top.

@@codyepperson6796 Oh, thank you
We need class action lawsuite to these companies who know exactly the massive harm they're doing to kill millions of humans/year, and causing massive climate change, when they can, and should have been, producing their power via solar and wind.
And you're writing this on something made from crude oil/gas bi-products and powered by what? The paint on your walls? Where did that come from? The tyres on your bicycle and the rubber on the soles of your shoes? Where did that come from? The food in you fridge? How did that get there? The list is almost infinite.
Too few people understand that electrical energy is only one part of our dependence on crude oil and coal.
That's not even counting the American military, who emits the same amount of carbon as all of Sweden.
EVERY TREE IS PRAYING FOR AN INCREASE IN CO2
Nope. Trees don't pray
NASA satellites have shown that the world is getting greener. Plants thrive on CO2.

These 57 companies should consider their profits blood money. Humans are dying from climate change ie heatwaves and flooding..
And floods and fires are only a recent occurrence? Do really believe that crap? Even the 2023 IPCC report stated that there is no correlation between the events you mentioned and climate change. I suggest you track it down and read it.
You don't use any of their products? Have a look around you very closely before you answer that.

Consumers are responsible, don't buy anything
All countries should introduce a carbon tax, to tax the fossil fuels as they are extracted. The tax can pay for measures to alleviate the effects of climate change, and as it ramps up with time, will provide the only real incentive to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. A workable system has been devised by two top Australian experts, Rod Sims and Ross Garnaut.
LOL foolishness
@@warrenwade8531 Crying 'foolishness' is the response of those desperate to deny the reality of the situation, and the need for action.
Ross Garnaut is an idiot
Fossil Fuel are not the planets Friend, #StopBurningStuff
Hello mate
🤣 You are being dubbed . Relying on false science is dangerous.
Then don't watch Faux entertainment for the poorly educated
Relying on disinformation as you head off the end of the cliff believing in your denials that is pretty dangerous
You should see the movie Don't Look Up. It captures perfectly you and folks like you in terms of your denial and Antiscientific attitude.
What sources do you rely on? 🙂🍿
Simple more electric cars means more strain on the electric grid which means more fossil fuel to support those electric cars come on man
Not that simple. Power plants, even coal can Scrub the pollutants much better than each car can. Also the grid is getting cleaner every year with more renewable. Your argument is not correct on any level. Do your research...
An EV running on coal generated electricity, still results in 1/10 the emissions of a gasoline vehicle.
Everything is more efficient not distributing fuel around, and not burning the fuel in an engine.
And the grid os getting cleaner. Less coal each year.
And some EVs are powered by endpoint solar, or other low emmisions electricity.
If we all switched to EVs immediately, the amount of emissions would cut massively.
Utterly clueless trolling and disinformation
