How much are you getting paid to peddle this "EV's BAD" BS?
I'm all for green energies and all. But in his defense, in the vast majority of presentationss/documentaries/panflets for "replace fossil fuel with electric", they nearly never openly take into consideration how fucking bad for the environment and the local populations mining rare minerals used in batteries is.
So yeah, let's stop using non reusables, but also let's acknowledge and openly talk about it.
We can and do talk about it, but it's not valid to use it as a talking point against electrification. There is tons of research being done to reduce dependency on lithium and the likes. Chances are, the people who own the mines are banding together to lobby against it too. To the LexiconDexicon, be constructive, don't just talk shit that helps no one.
I love how it's only a problem when the auto and oil industries are threatened, and totally ignored for decades for phone, tablet and laptop batteries.
That’s not entirely true and there are several companies now that can recycle the lithium used on batteries.
