Have you actually read the article pin brain?

and I quote (to save you the bother) :-


"
38. Electric vehicle manufacturing produces approximately 23% more
emissions than that of a gas-powered car.
(Green Car Congress)

The US air pollution statistics have revealed that the bigger the
vehicle thats being manufactured, the larger the battery. Or, in other
words, the greater the emissions.

Fortunately, due to battery recycling, the decarbonizing of electrical
grids, and an increase in battery energy density, emissions from battery
manufacturing could be reduced by a whopping 49%.

Whats more, both BMW and Tesla encourage their battery-recycling programs.

They state that even though battery production emissions may be high
during production, in the long run, emissions from electric vehicles as
a whole are lower than gas-powered cars.
