Let me contribute to this amazing thread with more fuel for discussion: MICROPLASTICS

It turns that the biggest source of microplastics in the environment is car tires. This stuff goes into our blood stream and ends up in all kinds of places like brain, liver, pancreas, and causes hormonal and other issues.

Now, cars getting heavier (thanks to electrification), we are shedding a lot more microplastics to the environment. Think about how fast your Tesla goes through tires; this stuff ends up in our organs and bloodstream.

So, one of the biggest arguments against electrification, which results in heavier cars and rapid tire consumption, is MICROPLASTICS.

Do you want more microplastics in your brain? Didn't think so! So, lets all go back to lighter, ICE cars with manual transmissions
