People who believe this are buying into misinformation spread by the fossil fuel lobby. Mining for battery components (primarily lithium) has far less environmental impact than petroleum extraction- at every step of the process. And there are overblown fears about battery life when they will typically outlast a combustion engine car’s usable life. Plus lithium is recyclable whereas a combustion engine will continue burning more fuel.
