While British Columbia pushes for a total shift to electric vehicles, the global impact of this transition is often ignored. From child labor in cobalt mines to the massive environmental toll of lithium extraction, the “green” label hides a darker reality.
In this video, we break down:
The human cost: Child labor in the Congo.
The environmental impact: Water depletion and toxic waste.
The economic divide: Why the shift is leaving the poor behind.
The infrastructure reality: Why EVs don’t solve car dependency.
Is the rush to electrify worth the cost, or are we just trading one form of pollution for another?
