How much energy does it take to manufacture a car?
To melt the steel and aluminum and glass?
So if the cars only last 150,000 miles but they know how to make cars last 500,000 miles or 1,000,000 miles then how much unnecessary pollution is being created. They talk about pollution from driving cars but not about pollution from MAKING CARS.
