00:00In India, when you are using an EV, you are reducing your carbon footprint only by around 20-25%.
00:06Just 20-25%. Why?
00:08Because the electricity is itself coming from carbon, from coal.
00:12The bulk of India's electricity is still coal-fired.
00:18So, in the West, where you have cleaner energy, if you buy an EV,
00:23then your carbon footprint shrinks by more than 50%.
00:27But in India, even if you buy an EV,
00:30the broader range is from 19-34%.
00:32That's the maximum reduction you can make in your carbon footprint.
