Electric Cars: Are They Bad For The Environment?

There are millions of people that own Gasoline Powered vehicles, but what most of them don't know is that they cause so much pollution which is really bad for our Environment. It could also hurt us badly in the long run. The Primary reason we should switch to Electric Cars is because they could save the Environment we live in. Tam Hunt writes for the Future of the Electric car on Green teen media about Electric Cars having saver batteries. “Lithium batteries will probably start showing marginal improvements around that time: (Hunt) The Eco-friendly cars have safer batteries and other equipment. Electric cars are way safer than cars on gas. For example cars that run on file have caused many explosions during car accidents which have killed
They have less percent chance of exploding. Jim Motavalli writes about electric cars that have really high safety ratings. According to Motavalli, “Over the years, the Nissan LEAF and other electric cars have consistently earned high ratings for safety. (Motavalli). Electric cars don't always run on gas which makes them safer to drive. During a wreck there is a less chance of them exploding or starting to get on fire. On the other hand vehicles with combustions engines have a high exploding rate. They carry fuel which makes them very explosive. If the fuel tank busts open and theres a spark, then most likely the car is going to get caught on fire. Electric cars are known to be safe, but at the same time they are still very dangerous
It takes a little while for some Electric Car companies to charge the vehicles. According to Kirsten Hall-Geisler, “The Nissan LEAF uses lithium-ion batteries, just like your laptop and your cell phone, but it uses a lot of them. It can charge overnight (8 hours) at 11/120-wold Nissan charging dock thats installed in your garage”. It could take around 8 hours for one of the Nissan cars to charge fully. You would most likely need a charging station in your garage. Other Electric vehicles charge a lot faster but cost more money. According to Gavin Conway, “Most new pure EV`s can also use rapid charging points that can top up the batteries to 80% capacity in around 30 minutes” (Gavin Conway). The older versions of Electric cars take a while to charge but the newer ones charge a lot faster. They also tend to cost more. Electric Cars take a lot time to charge at the charging stations and they cost a lot of money that not everybody
