one truck lose 5 cars vs one ship sink lose 10000 cars. totally different magnitude.

maybe thats why byd have to have its own RORO ships.

update. Sunk liao. I wonder how many carbon credits went down with that ship. if lets say 1 in 1000 EV ship car carrier sink, will that offset any CO2 savings from EVs?

Anchorage, Alaska (AP) — A cargo ship that had been delivering new vehicles to Mexico sank in the North Pacific Ocean, weeks after crew members abandoned ship when they couldn’t extinguish an onboard fire that left the carrier dead in the water.

That ship only had 70 pure EV and 600 hybrids. But the fire caused by lithium batteries. Imagine those byd super size ships carrying tens of thousands of pure EVs in future
