No, I do care about this. The amount of lithium mining we're doing now is just a small fraction of what will be needed if cars go all electric in the future, and this leaves permanent scars on the land.Tibbers said:
I frankly don't care and the only reason you do is to snub the eye of the green movement. Who cares about the green movement? It's largely wrong anyway, but getting our country toward a better energy grid is important. Nuclear and thorium is clearly the way to go for cities, but houses and cars can't be thorium and nuclear dependent. You already have lithium powering your phones and laptops so buckle up.
One thing you can be sure of, the left won't want lithium pits in their backyard, Brazil however is all about it. Partner up with some lithium companies down there like SGML or ATLX.
Nuclear is great, but like you've alluded to, cars will still need batteries to store the electricity.
