Climate Change / Re: Ford “Drastically” Cutting EV Lightning Workforce Hours
« Last post by banddag on Today at 02:57:09 am »Leach fields in just one lithium mine:
As the accompanying article states: "Although pretty from a distance, lithium mines are environmentally damaging and use a lot water and energy."
But hey, it's not coming out of a tailpipe on the EV, so it must be "environmentally friendly".
"F**king idiot" is a perfectly sober sobriquet for the sort that believes that nonsense.
You do know almost all the Ev co's are going to solid state batteries- Toyota, Nissan, Ford, BMW, Kia which uses no lithium. . Tesla is still sticking with lithium for now. The largest Ev solid state battery plant in the world was just built in Massachusetts, another one is being built in KY by Ford, BMW and Kia who are going into together.
