No, you claimed:
Production of batteries, handling discarded batteries, breaking of minerals FOR the batteries, and producing the electricity have all been shown to be worse for the environment than than the entire life of a traditional car

Again, link your sources (MIT study) please.
Great, it’s better if you link them where the claims were made though.
