Electric cars alone won't solve urban pollution and health crises, analysis finds

Summary

The article argues that electric cars are not a panacea for urban problems. While they may reduce tailpipe emissions, they still rely on fossil fuels for electricity generation and do not address inactivity and obesity crises caused by car dependency. The author questions claims by politicians like Zac Goldsmith that electric vehicles will transform cities, suggesting that the benefits are overstated and that broader systemic changes are needed.
