There are some other 1/2 truths in that article in that disreputable publication. Namely.....gravity needs to be considered. Small particles given off by brake linings and tire particles will fall down on some road somewhere and rain will wash them away to sewers and eventually into the MUD bottoms of rivers, where they would soon be rendered inert. Now, another 1/2 truth would be that an E-automobile like a Tesla would weigh some LARGE amount compared with a gas-guzzling vehicle like a Cadillac. Another factor is that in the NEAR future battery weights will be coming down. Another factor is that E-motors move in a circle as opposed to up and down piston movement and THEREFORE require only about 1/3 of the parts as compared to a gas engine. Therefore, less parts need to be shipped to the vehicle factory, which would easily give the E-vehicle an edge in producing less particle pollution (even IF that theory were true, which it isn't)
.........Not for the REAL truth. The gasoline engine helps America's international enemies. The gasoline engine produces out of its exhaust pipe a CO2 gas which RISES (as opposed to those small stupid particles which fall) and the CO2 becomes TRAPPED in the upper atmosphere and has been reflecting HEAT back to the Earth in large quantities in the last 11 or so years. This HEAT has caused many PROBLEMS one of which is HEATED oceans WHICH are spawning more hurricanes of greater intensity.
.......Also note......The worldwide gas and oil conglomerates have a vested PROFIT interest in PREVENTING the widespread ADOPTION of ELECTRIC vehicles. They are DESPERATE to prevent them!!!!!!!!!
