Electric cars are seen as a sustainable alternative to gas-powered vehicles, but their true sustainability is not clear-cut. Electric cars have lower emissions and are more energy-efficient than gas-powered vehicles, but the production and disposal of batteries can have environmental impacts such as deforestation, soil and water contamination, and greenhouse gas emissions.

The greenhouse effect is a phenomenon that occurs between a planet with an atmosphere (in our case the Earth) and between a star in its vicinity (in our case the Sun).
