>>>Who is going to tell her the electricity she charged her car with was generated by from “fossil” fuels?
Wait till she finds out that Electric Car battery materials are mined by child labor in Africa and the abuse those little kids face every day. Till she finds out that used batteries are destroying the earth’s water and poisoning landfills. China is stealing all material from Africa by bribing African leaders. New form of colonialism had just started.
Excellent point, jenny.
But they’re saving the Earth, donchaknow!
Major Lithium Producer Could Shut German Plant Over EU Rule
Lithium producer Albemarle could be forced to close its plant in Germany if the European Union classifies the key mineral lithium as a hazardous substance that would change the way lithium is processed and stored, the company’s chief financial officer has told Reuters.
If the EU decides to include the lithium chemicals in the hazardous category, it would deal a blow to its own goals of becoming self-sufficient in batteries this decade and significantly raise the share of electric vehicles on the roads.
The decision would change the way lithium producers and processors work and will add costs to their operations.
