World demand for rare-earth elementswhich arent rare but are rarely mined in Americawill rise 300% to 1,000% by 2050 to meet the Paris green goals. If electric vehicles replace conventional cars, demand for cobalt and lithium, will rise more than 20-fold. That doesnt count batteries to back up wind and solar grids. . . . and dilithium crystals, a major cause of interplanetary and intergalactic conflicts

Solar panels works great in parts of the world where the climate has enough sunny days year-round to make them viable financially. That right there means most of California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico and western Texas here in the USA.

Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles do not have the drawbacks of vehicles powered by lithium batteries that are cited in this article. Toyota and Honda have sold fuel cell vehicles for several years. Now Hyundai has introduced the Hyundai Nexo. Here is a test from last week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDDLMWKwTpQ There are wrinkles, but two or three years should iron them out.
