The Law of Unintended Consequences:
REAL Experts in the field of battery technology predict that there will be an environmental DISASTER, much worse than anything seen, including the myth of AGW, when these batteries are discarded at the end of their life (apx. 10 years at the most).
The toxins in these things are (and thus will be) worse than virtually all chemicals released into the environment to date.

The batteries will not be discarded. Almost every one will be recycled -- whether because of the value of the raw materials, or because of government mandates. That doesn't mean there won't be environmental damage -- but, you don't help your argument by overstating the case.

Yup, when considered cradle to grave, electric cars are bad ju ju for the environment, even a Hummer has less impact. What idiots.

Really? State your sources. Tell me about these real experts. I've been following this for 3 years and I've never heard of these real experts. Tell me who they are or are you just making it up?
