Rowan Atkinson urges caution on electric vehicles, stating that producing them creates more emissions than gasoline cars and rare-earth minerals for lithium ion batteries harm the environment.

, he said, “Electric vehicles may be a bit soulless, but they’re wonderful mechanisms, fast, quiet and, until recently, very cheap to run. But increasingly, I feel a little duped. When you start to drill into the fact electric motoring doesn’t seem to be quite the environmental panacea it is claimed to be.”

Interestingly the United Kingdom is also considering a ban on the sale of gasoline cars by 2030 in order to cut greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change.
