Tow it somewhere out of the way and sink it.

Those 500 EVs are going to do their part to get our oceans “boiling”.

World’s Largest Floating “Green” Battery

the carbon footprint will be hard to overcome with the sales of more EVs...

[Seaplaner]

To extinguish a lithium fire, one must cool the bat to a sub-ignition temperature.

A CO2 (ha ha ha) fire extinguisher might work in certain circumstances.

Ever notice how you never get the straight story when something goes against “The Narrative”, be it EVs, Covid jabs, Green New Deal, Ukraine, election integrity, etc?

Boy Howdy! It is starting to look like transporting electric vehicles with lithium ion batteries is even worser than transporting ICE vehicles with a full tank of real fuel.
And allowing the crew to smoke in in the cargo hold.
With faulty fuel caps.
And leaking tanks.
while celebrating a holiday with fireworks.

[Rappini]

Gee I wonder how the fire started.

[iontheball]

All you need is one shorted out hot battery fire and the entire ship goes up in smoke and then down in the drink.

[Sertorius]

climate change caused the batteries to explode.

[Noumenon]

I wonder how much longer before shipping companies refuse to handle EVs.

[Sirius Lee]

And the larger number of batteries involved potentially makes the fire that much more difficult to extinguish,

LOL! Dumbasses.

[skimbell]

500 instead of 25?
Chit! That’s a mistake that anybody could make.
Wonder what the real numbers are.

[Colo9250]

I wonder how many of those EVs were Mercedes EQE350s which have been recalled for some reason? Seems there was one in the Jacksonville Florida area that burnt down a woman’s home after being left in her garage, just a few weeks ago. It was loaner.

Probably not a good idea to leave any EV in a garage.

[Parley Baer]

The first reports I saw of this fire, the ship had 498 electric cars on board. I guess that number did not sit well with the greenies and they have been massaging the number down.

[T.B. Yoits]

At some point the insurers will stop writing policies.

The "green coalition" communists should be sent the bill for the damage to the environment.

They want to push electric cars, let them pay the bills.

[wafflehouse]

what about the environmental impact?

[cpdiii]

Tow it to deep water. The fires will go out when it sinks.
