Are EVs really as green as you think? Find out by catching up on our ‘In Focus’ Webinar…

In case you missed yesterday's In Focus webinar exploring whether electric vehicles (EVs) are really green, you can watch it just below.

I had a fantastic discussion with Aneysha Minocha, Founder of Quantenergy, and Mark Richards, EMEA Head of the Energy, Environment and Infrastructure Team at Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP, about the pros and cons of battery-powered cars in a world striving to lessen its impact on the environment and work towards net zero by 2050.

We touched on issues such as the environmental and human cost of mining for substances like cobalt, the importance of powering EVs with 100% renewable energy if they are to be considered truly clean and whether cars of any kind, regardless of how they are powered, have any place in modern cities.
