Cars may be running more and more on cleaner energy sources like battery power and fuel cells, but some say the manufacturing is dirtier than ever. Divergent Microfactories is trying to change that by building what it has labelled “the world’s first 3D-printed supercar.”  Founder Kevin Czinger says, “A far greater percentage of a car’s total emissions come from the materials and energy required to manufacture it.
