I don't know why Tesla and other electric car manufacturers don't yell and shout more about how much better electric cars are for human health in cities. The climate change argument for EVs is kind of weak, since you still have to produce the electricity. But it's much better for lung health to produce the electricity in a far-off place and then transport it via the power grid to the EVs in a city, than to have the vehicle itself burn the gasoline and emit the exhaust right out on the streets where people are walking around.
