If electric vehicles are charged by electricity generated by fossil fuels, then they are no better for the environment than petroleum vehicles. Currently New Zealand is heavily reliant on fossil fuels, whilst only small percentages come from hydro, solar and wind. https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/are-electric-vehicles-definitely-better-climate-gas-powered-cars#:~:text=This%20intensive%20battery%20manufacturing%20means,a%20comparable%20gas%2Dpowered%20car.&text=But%20just%20like%20with%20gasoline,roll%20off%20the%20production%20floor. https://ourworldindata.org/energy/country/new-zealand

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1738032508544209153

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
