Do EV's actually do anything beneficial for the planet? (lemmy.today)

I've seen a lot of posts here on Lemmy, specifically in the "fuck cars" communities as to how Electric Vehicles do pretty much nothing for the Climate, but I continue to see Climate activists everywhere try pushing so, so hard for Electric Vehicles.

Are they actually beneficial to the planet other than limiting exhaust, or is that it? or maybe exhaust is a way bigger problem?

The best solution is a reasonable number of cars and still having commercial vehicles like we have today... ideally those vehicles will be electric and most people will walk/bike/public transit to work.

Framing it as all or nothing is pretty unhelpful.
