Abstract

With the significant impact of human industry on the Earth's ecology since the late 20th century, important environmental issues such as global warming have become increasingly significant international topics. The new energy vehicle industry has become one of the most notable industries contributing to environmental sustainability. The research topic of this paper is how the new energy vehicle industry affects climate and environmental outcomes. The research method is to analyze the impact of the production, use, and other lifecycle stages of new energy vehicles on global warming. The research questions of this paper will focus on the extent to which new energy vehicles reduce tailpipe emissions. After providing evidence and analysis, it is concluded that new energy vehicles effectively mitigate environmental changes in various aspects, thereby strongly supporting the cause of global environmental protection. With the vigorous development and rapid promotion of new energy electric vehicles in China, their concrete contributions to climate and environmental outcomes are examined in detail, such as the impacts across the production, use, and recycling stages. The use of batteries as the power system in new energy vehicles, which is different from traditional fuel vehicles, focuses on the environmental protection implications of battery production and disposal. Based on this, how to effectively manage and subsequently utilize batteries becomes the key to the extent to which new energy vehicles can improve environmental issues, such as climate change.
