He's right. In about 6 billion years, the sun will run out of fuel and become a white dwarf, and the Earth will turn into frozen tundra. Electric cars be damned.

The electricity to charge an electric vehicle has to come from somewhere. EVs switch auto pollution to increased demand from power plants. The more EVs, the more electricity we need from power plants and the more pollution we get from power plants. Driving an EV in China where coal is by far the largest power plant fuel only increases demand from fossil fuel power plants. China is currently bringing two coal powered electric plants per week into production. If our government pays us to use less fossil fuel in the form of subsidies, it lowers the price of fossil fuels world wide which means that we are paying people in other countries to use more. Our policy is subsidizing the Chinese.
