/sci/ - Science & Math

It may be a bit outdated as I did these calculations some 2 years ago but apart from Y now being more popular than Corolla I don’t think much has changed. They still would be the most popular vehicle for each propulsion type.
Full carbon footprint estimations - no skipping manufacturing steps (like resource extraction), grid losses etc. All the way from the mine, till end of use - I had to omit end of live due to no sufficient data on recycling/safely retiring battery EVs - but I sincerely doubt that a gas car would be more problematic to retire or recycle than a battery EV.
