This week on the I Know Nothing Podcast, Marcus and George discuss Electric Cars.

The batteries on wheels: are they actually beneficial to the environment? Are they cheaper? We find out on the episode today.

Discussed this week:

• What actually is a lithium-ion battery?
• When do electric cars break even, if their production is more CO2 intensive?
• Are electric cars cheaper?

The climate in focus this week is topical, with the UK ranking favorably in the cheapest countries to own an electric vehicle but Indonesia and Malasia currently have a smog alert due to forest fires.

The Company in Focus this week is Too Good to Go - similar to Olio, but you pay a bit and pick it up straight from the company that has made it.

As always, please do let us know if we missed anything or made any mistakes. This is a conversation and we want to learn just as much as you
