Micah Toll has a piece that references the short life of the e-scoots that takes some of the shine off the promoted environmental woody that is part of their promotion:

He quotes a very short lifespan of the scoots
This coupled with the short range , often 3 miles, as opposed to the promoted range makes their environmental advantage over walking or non motorized options less salient
Disposal costs , and impact are just another part of the costs that the vendors don't assume.
Netflix and Buzzfeed have even created a show called, "Follow This," where episode 3, "Scooter Wars,"
adds to the discussion.
