Meh, it’s a monocultural wood farm not some kind of untouched nature reserve. Tesla also has to replant trees in a different location. Lots of legitimate things to criticize about Tesla, but this is barely worth mentioning.
It’s not a brilliant criticism of Tesla, but it’s a fine reminder for anyone who still believe in eternal growth and that we can consume our way out of the climate crisis. You’re not doing the world a favour by buying a brand new EV.
To a degree, but cars are not designed with disability in mind, and they are pushed on consumers to upgrade much more often than needed. Car lobbyist have successfully pushed towards building societies where everybody needs cars.
It’s not natural and it’s not necessary.
Of course new cars will still be needed and they should not be running on gasoline. But we need to consume less. Buying a new EV does not give you a low climate footprint.

This idea that everyone should be buying a new car every decade or so is killing us.
Cars have a limited lifespan and new ones are needed and desired.
