(Natural News)—Despite all the “environmentally friendly” claims that surround them, electric vehicles (EVs) are anything but good for the environment. In fact, they are wreaking havoc on the nation’s already-distressed infrastructure due to their sheer weight.
According to the latest data, some EVs weigh upwards of 50 percent more than traditional internal combustion motor vehicles, which we are told “harm” the environment. What is all that excess weight doing to the nation’s roads, bridges and parking structures?
The answer is that EVs are causing a lot of damage to America’s crumbling infrastructure, which is currently in desperate need of repair if it is going to last and keep business and the economy running smoothly.
It is something that many people overlook when considering the “green” factors associated with EVs, but their sheer heaviness means that a whole lot more wear and tear is occurring with each passing car on the highway.
“The problems associated with EVs are poised to grow as more consumers purchase the cars under the Biden administration’s plan to eliminate gas-powered vehicles and the tailpipe emissions that come with them,” reads a Washington Times report about the environmental and infrastructure threat of EVs.
Engineers writing for Structure Magazine agree, having written a piece calling on construction companies and building codes to make necessary adjustments and accommodations for all that extra weight, which is increasing all the time as more people purchase EVs to virtue signal their love for the planet.
“Significantly increasing passenger vehicle weights combined with recently reduced structural design requirements will result in reduced factors of safety and increased maintenance and repair costs for parking structures,” the engineers warn.
“There are many cases of parking structure failures, and the growing demand for EVs will only increase the probability of failure.”
Traditional guardrails are also threatened by extra-heavy EVs, which tend to bulldoze right through them, defeating their purpose entirely. This creates dangers for other cars that risk getting slammed into by an “autopilot” Tesla gone rogue, for example.

EVs rely on UNFRIENDLY nations for parts, materials
Another serious problem with EVs is the fact that they cannot, at least based on current mining and production rules, be produced here in North America. Sure, they can be assembled here, but the materials and parts, including rare-earth minerals, typically come from other countries.
The problem is made worse by the fact that most of the areas where EV parts and materials derive are rogue nations like communist China that are enemies of the United States.
Then there is the fact that it takes a lot of energy to power all the EVs that are flooding to roads, but not nearly enough energy infrastructure to handle charging them on a daily basis. This could eventually lead to a grid-down scenario with rolling brownouts and blackouts that interrupt regular electric service for homes and businesses.
Despite all this, the Biden regime is carrying on with pushing EVs on Americans as the solution to so-called “climate change” and “global warming,” even as some on the right, including Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) warn against them.
“EVs are typically much heavier compared to similarly sized, gas-powered vehicles, which will put additional strain on America’s transportation infrastructure,” Rubio is quoted as saying.
“The American Society of Civil Engineers warns that an increase in EVs could substantially reduce the lifespan of roads and bridges, necessitating further investment in infrastructure.”

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
When you buy gas you pay road tax to be used to maintain roads. EVs freeload on the gas vehicles roads.
Please, give it a rest. Your skreed has no bearing on reality. How about all those trucks that go over those same roads. You are looking for a problem that won’t be seen for decades. IE: Stop acting like the hysteric, “Chicken Little”, but for you, the sky is not yet falling, so get a grip and write about something that actually gives us some value for the time we spend reading this crap.
There have been several structures collapse because of EVs, many fires (including a cargo ship), insurance rates have been skyrocketing because of the cost to repair EVs and the cars they hit and destroy, CA is considering bills to use EVs plugged in as back up batteries because of the drain on their power infrastructure specifically due to EVs. Your tactic of attacking the bearer of reality to defend your indefensible cult beliefs is pretty obvious and pathetic. Also, why are you reading crap if you think it’s crap? I never read CNN, MSNBC, Fox or other MSM treasonous news sites, because I refuse to consume crap. Gross.
More importantly, unless you are charging using only solar and wind, EVs are not green. They are powered by natural gas and coal.
They are still not green. The immense damage and waste involved in their production process alone are far worse than the production and entire lifespan of burning gas of an ICE vehicle. Even if they only charge off solar or wind (which none do), the damage is done in production.
Do a tad more research. I own several vehicles and one is a Tesla model Y (weight around 4200 lbs) and a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon (weight around 4300 lbs). Kind of backwards there don’t you think?
You’re comparing a small commuter SUV/sedan to a 4WD SUV, that weigh the same (except the Tesla website says it weighs 4555), and think you are debunking the argument that EVs weigh more? Bwahahaha! To make the Y as capable as the jeep would add another 1000 lbs in suspension, tires and drivetrain, at least. There. Research. And the real weight differences come on in the more common varieties. Tesla 3, comparable to a Honda Civic, weighs over a thousand pounds more. How about a tad more reseach? Direct conparison: Ford F150 (4300 to 5800). Ford F150 Lightning (6000 to 6900). Facts matter.
This is a stupid article.
If EV’s were harming the roads, 18 wheelers would completely destroy the road within a year.
