The ONLY reason for battery research is the climate con. Without that, nobody would need such batteries.
But I have to admit I sure do like lithium-ion batteries in my gadgets, tools, snow blower, leaf blower, wife’s e-bike, etc.
There will always be enough liberal leftist wackos to burn to turn turbines for power for generations to come. Probably will NEVER run out of them. Why hasn’t anyone thought of that?
