The emissions from the EV are largely because we’ve not yet gotten fossil fuels out of electric generation.

    As someone who has solar panels on their roof, this is a bunch of BS. They paid for themselves after five years. I didn’t lease them, I paid for the system and the city, state, and feds helped to offset the costs with rebates. I didn’t have to rewire my house. Without the panels, my summer HVAC bill would be twice what I pay each month.

      Depends of the solar vendor. Some do indeed have fucked up models. If I can ever afford it, I’m buying not leasing.
