EVs May Produce Higher Levels of Ocean and Air Pollution Through Tire Emissions

Pollution problems caused by electric vehicles’ increased tire wear can be mitigated by curbing car use and dependency.

As gas-guzzling cars are replaced by their electric counterparts, tailpipe emissions are on the decline. But cars have other negative impacts on environmental health, beyond what comes out of their exhaust pipes. One of the bigger, and lesser known, problems is tire pollution — or “tire and road wear particles,” in industry terminology. Tires shed tiny particles with every rotation.
