Cars are resources intensive in general, although EVs clearly pollute less, even when taking batteries into account (lifecycle analysis), and even if electricity used to charge them isn’t renewable.

All cars company deserve scrutiny and often crtiticit, but producing EVs isn’t a good reason to single out Tesla.

In this case it seems there’s another factor, which are fear for water resources due to putting too much/large factories in one place, and Elon being an asshole.
