Until now, I never considered the possibility of long-term damage created as a result of an EV battery fire. Either damage to the environment...or physical damage to firefighters that fight these fires. Wait’ll the firefighter lawsuits crank up.

EV’s are terrible for the environment.
Fires - actually many forest fires are recently caused by EV battery exploding.
Fires are virtually inextinguishable, firefighters have special training how to handle those. And pollution from fires - see above.
Massive mining and manufacturing pollutions.
Massive hazardous waste generated.
EV’s are small vehicles, but very heavy due to the batteries, so they are not even energy efficient.
Basically, their only feature is to shift some of the pollution out of the sight of the snowflakes.
