Environmentalism doesn’t care that much about EVs, because road infrastructure is bad, but when driving really is necessary, EVs are better. Environmentalism supports the strike, because has since long realised that workers struggle similar fights, would be a great ally and might produce popular support for environmentalism.
It also doesn’t matter if factories pump out EVs if people can’t afford them. That new electric vehicle on the lot won’t help the environment if the person buying a car can only afford a used gas guzzler.
Not personal vehicles no. Half the pollution of a car doesn’t come out the tail pipe. EVs are a huge problem. Additionally the amount of EVs we’d need to make to compensate for all the cars out there is gigantic.
There is no good environmental argument for every household to continue to own a personal vehicle and to maintain and build the insane amount of infrastructure they need.
tldr; trains, buses, bikes unless there’s a specific need like for manual labor or going to very low population places

Environmentalists care very much about EVs.
Yes. Specifically trains and ebikes.
Not personal vehicles no. Half the pollution of a car doesn’t come out the tail pipe. EVs are a huge problem. Additionally the amount of EVs we’d need to make to compensate for all the cars out there is gigantic.

There is no serious response to carbon emissions that does not involve electric personal vehicles.
I understand and support the world you want to live in, but that world is, at minimum, a century away.
