Do we really want to replace gas cars with e-vehicles?

Closing questions

Before allowing anyone to purchase (or drive?) an electric vehicle, should every municipality determine how much water it has available to extinguish EV fires and, thereby how many EVs it can permit to park or drive within its limits? Should municipalities create a fire service fee for EV owners?

If a municipality aims to decrease its greenhouse gas emissions, extractions, worker hazards and impacts to wildlife, should it include the cradle-to-grave impacts of anything purchased within its limits?
