To repeat my reply when this same question was posed in the General Discussion forum:

Electric vehicles simply defer their environmental consequences somewhere else: coal-fired plants, hydroelectric dams or nuclear power plants. Heck, even wind turbines are, as John Stossel says, "giant bird-killing Cuisinarts." The California power grid can barely maintain the load that is on it now; imagine the brownouts with 30 million EVs added to that. Not to mention the elephant in the room that is battery disposal...

Multiply the pic below by 270 million electric cars and that's your future vistas with EV's:
