No clue how it is where you live, but electricity is cheaper than gas for me (getting up to even when using the most expensive public outlets). Can charge at home without a loading station, just plug it in to a normal outlet and leave it overnight, always good to go. One card to pay at every charging station when on the go. And that’s not even considering the lower maintenance costs for EVs saving hundreds per year.

I mean it says overall protective, so no, not just equal choice. Also seems quite easy to fix if it is only due to lack of B vitamins.

I’m always hoping to see more cars with largw range but smaller sized (somewhere around a VW golf).

This has to be in the top 5 most US things.

It is pretty funny that the comment talking about slavery is downvoted, but the one talking about the two world wars is upvoted

Imagine pretending like things pertaining to “words or pictures on a screen” cannot be doing anything. I get it, everyone hates AI, no need to invalidate many real peoples’ jobs.

Sometimes I’m on Lemmy and scroll until I see any positive comment, on any thread. It’s hard. It’s draining to be here sometimes.

Thanks for sharing. I’m still happily driving my second hand Kona '19, but glad to see prices dropping.

Does this account for the entire production line and recycling after? Or just directly emissions from the vehicle itself

This is the entire point of the article and study?

I was worried I was alone

Do you (or anyone else) have suggestion for software than can control an android phone from pc?

Wouldn’t this be true for anyone?

I pity that you spent this long talking to a very poor LLM set out to troll people. Either that, or a human so far gone there’s truly no point in talking to them, as they deluded themselves into believing that the world is completely seperated from their actions.

Anytime someone mentions veganism, there has to be a discussion on plants. Interesting how you suddenly care about vegetables.

Vegetables are not sentient, and even if they were, it requires fewer plants if you eat them directly instead of feeding them to an animal first for years, and then killing the animal.

I’m actually not interested in talking to you, but perhaps someone will read this and realize how absurd it is to compare chopping vegetables to slicing the throat of an animal.

Should we, according to you, grant the same amount of ethical consideration to a tomato as to a cat/pig/bird/etc? Do you actually believe there is a sentient being in a plant, or a rock for that matter?

Our best scientific understanding is that a CNS is essential for sentience, and there is no serious evidence support plant sentience. You can play the philospher and argue this, but then technically you can’t prove human sentience outside your own (if that). Should we go kill humans?

Anyway. I see you’re not serious in this conversation and are just trolling. Have a good one.

What do you mean? You think there is no supply demand at play in food production?

Animal suffering and veganism are deeply intertwined topics. By analogy, would you be this mad at someone raising issue with the catholic church on a news article about child abuse by priests?

If you are genuinely interested in the vegan position, I’d happily answer (or you could have used a search engine and gotten millions of answers). Something tells me you’re not being genuine in your motivation.

In short: there is no sentience and thus, no capacity for suffering inside plants as far as we know based on scientific consensus. Animals do have this. Hence why I care about taking a knife to an animals throat and slicing it, and not about chopping a carrot.

Even if you believe for whatever bum fuck spiritualist reason that plants can suffer, you can minimize plant usage by going vegan. Keeping all those farm animals alive requires (plantbased) feed, so cutting out the middle man reduces the number of plants wasted.
