Can Electric vehicles still be considered environmentally friendly when the factories they are made in still produce emissions?

    Yes, they can be considered environmentally friendly because they are a much better technology than what we have now. I think you could criticise many things about EVs but you picked the most stupid argument. You could say that mining the materials for the batteries produces more emissions, or that in many countries electricity is generated using fossil fuels, but okay… This factories will produce less emissions as the electricity sector gets cleaner and as manufacturing processes become more efficient, but so far it’s the best we can have, unless we all decided to ride wooden bicycles.
