EVs are also causing more tire particles due to the batteries making the vehicles heavier.

But it’s nice that Brazil has a high amount of renewable energy output solidifying energy independence for their transport.

    So suddenly we care about heavy vehicles? Ford sells almost a million pickups a year.

    I'm gonna guess that most F-150 drivers don't even know that microplastics exist and don't give a shit about pollution.

    But also, you can still make the biogas trucks worse if you make them even heavier than they already are.
