    I saw a post the other day here that was saying something along the lines of “because china’s car market is swapping to EV’s we might be at the tipping point for climate change either in 2024 or 2025”

    Which if true would be really nice. I have no idea of the validity of that claim, but i just wanted to add it. Maybe we aren’t so screwed? Fingers crossed I guess :3

      So why don’t you at least try to run the numbers. Takes like 2 minutes. Total output, output per car, number of cars - it’s not rocket science.

        Yeah, I could have, but it would have taken longer than 5 minutes of work, and I’m not nearly knowledgeable enough to take all the factors into account. I was posting this while taking a quick break etc.

        I was just trying to add some hope to an otherwise gloomy topic.

        But you’re right, I’m sure with some effort I could probably have at least a ballpark idea.
