It's not my argument though. It's theirs. At least from how I understand their argument, they are complaining about vehicle emissions from traffic. It seems that argument ignores what the actual emissions may be with the future EV/hybrid/ICE mix of vehicle traffic.
Their arguments don't seem to center around the associated pollution that may come about during the EV production processes or whatnot (I'm assuming this is what you're referring to). I'm not saying it should be ignored, but it doesn't seem to show up in their narrative. At least not that I've seen.
