Hope there's no pipeline involved. But residents? Meh! The branDUHn (b)adminstration knows what's best. I'm sure our senatorettes will be all okee dokee with it too.

This is Priceless.

A group of Environmental Activists is protesting AGAINST the mine because it will destroy the environment. And another group of Environmental Activists WANTS the mine because Fossil Fuels are destroying the environment and Lithium and Green Energy is the savior of the Environment.

Environmental Activist = RETARD !!!!

Because “clean energy” is all about massive strip-mining operations.

residents and activists who say they believe the repercussions of the mine will outweigh the lithium’s contributions to the nation’s transition to less-polluting energy sources than fossil fuels.


The argument is sound......................

So torn on this one.
I support mining and the Lithium needs to come from somewhere domestically instead of China.
I despise Greenie carpetbaggers.
Nearly all of the “Protestors” (Who is paying them, China?) are from outside this state.

But I also loath the effort to cram EV’s down our throats.

They want us to be dependent on other countries for all forms of energy and any basic need.

...Despite its name, and the fact that it is also developing a lithium mine in Argentina, Lithium Americas’ majority stakeholder is China’s Ganfeng Lithium the world’s largest producer of the element.

Why am I not surprised?

So much for the endangered polka-dotted flat-head fish-eyed jack-lizard--or whatever-- enviro crises beats the environment every time.

I’m thinking this mining for battery materials is a good deal for Caterpillar, Komatsu, etc. Investment opp?

I’m amazed the Chinese didn’t buy up that land and bring in slave Uighur labor along with Chinese or trafficked child labor and mine like they do in China. At least with the Uighurs we’d have access to more human organs for transplant. See how humane and nice the Green New Deal has become?

Environmentalists are snobs and have no trouble destroying poor countries’ landscapes.

These are the same people who opposed wind turbines off the coast of Nantucket.

There is no such thing as “old growth sagebrush”.

Another fabrication by the uneducated environmentalists.

They’re fine with the current mining, which involves massive child and Chinese slave labor throughout the parts of the world that have lithium.

It’s all cool, don’t worry.

How much fossil fuel does it take to operate a strip mine? Those huge dump trucks don’t run on water.
