Lithium is a necessary component of the batteries for electric cars that environmentalists are always claiming to be in favor of.
However, after lithium mining was proposed in California, environmentalists objected to the proposal.
The Los Angeles Times reported:
The drilling request has generated strong opposition from the Center for Biological Diversity, the Sierra Club and the Defenders of Wildlife, who say the drilling project would be an initial step toward the creation of a full-scale lithium mining operation. They say lithium extraction would bring industrial sprawl, large and unsightly drying ponds and threaten a fragile ecosystem that supports Nelson’s bighorn sheep, desert tortoises and the Panamint alligator lizard, among other species.
“A lithium mine would destroy these spectacular panoramas,” drilling opponent Tom Budlong said recently as he and fellow activists buzzed over the Panamint Valley in a chartered Ecoflight aircraft.
Absolutely hilarious!
And space ships.
Evidently, the Leftist enviro-whackos (but I repeat myself) believe that a flock of flying pink unicorns will shit out the lithium, in the form of perfectly constructed car batteries, right next to an auto assembly plant (that runs on solar and wind energy, of course).
I am just wondering how many more times the Leftists have to prove that they have completely lost touch with reality, before the average person in the street not only dismisses them because they’re nucking futs, but then goes on to spitefully vote the opposite of the Lefties, just to piss them off.
They want us dead.
Ot as bad as we want them dead!
Sierra Club and it’s defenders don’t homes built in the forests because it’s where their homes are.
They are all for giant windmills blocking the views and the spinning blades killing thousands of birds.
Let all of those who say go EV and you can’t go wrong sing that tune when the batteries low and the freeways are jammed and the sun ain’t shining and the wind ain’t blowing.
They’ll need more than lithium then to mellow their minds.
Make sure and wave at old former Gubby aRnie as he drives by in his hydrogen Humveeee, his entourage of stoners close behind picking up his cigar ashes as he motors on.
California - Mission Accomplished.
Liberals Democrats and progressives oppose all forms of energy.
They oppose wind.
They oppose solar.
They oppose electric.
This is why they adore Islam so much. They would like to see a return to the 12th century
