Mass producing anything today requires an incredible amount of natural resources, whether the final product is less impactful to the environment than its competitors or otherwise. Individual consumption is infinitesimally small compared to large-scale industrial consumption, which is why producing EVs will appease individual buyers, while helping car manufacturers more than anything in our ecosystem. I don't think EVs are a bad idea, but they aren't here to save us.
