    You said tire pollution is potentially worse for the environment than tailpipe emissions. That is a wildly irresponsible thing to say. That’s what I was objecting to.

    There absolutely are people arguing that ICs are better for the environment, as if climate change doesn’t affect the environment.

    If you’re going to buy a new car, don’t, but if you’re going to buy one anyway, prioritize euphemistically of ghg emissions.

    • Then you’re responding to the wrong comment. The comment you’re responding to is one where I say that tire pollution is worse than brake pollution. In the thread where I say that tire pollution can be worse in some ways than tailpipe emissions, I specify that EVs are still better than ICEs for the climate.

      So you’re responding to a comment where I didn’t say what you claim I said, while accusing me of holding a position I don’t hold.
