Just manufacturing the EV battery can have a carbon debt rate of 10 tonnes to 40 tonnes of CO2

This plan for conversion of society to EV is a trojan horse meant to bankrupt 1st world nations at the same time increasing pollution
You have to look at the carbon offset though. A typical ICE powered vehicle produces 4-5 tonnes of CO2 annually, and we haven't even started looking at what mineral recycling will look like down the road.
