“More greenhouse gases are emitted in the manufacture of EVs than by the drilling, refining, smelting, and assembly for gas-powered cars.”

It sounds true but no evidence was provided.

The life time environmental/economic costs extend far beyond manufacture. Which is all this is claiming anyway at the highest.
