    Lithium mining is quite destructive, and electric vehicles don’t have the longevity ICE cars have and more quickly turn into waste. We’ve just replace one form of ecological damage for another.

    Capitalists are seeking to profit off of the lie that your individual decisions can help save the planet from their relentless profit seeking behavior. Don’t believe them. They just end up selling their carbon credits giving another company the greenlight to pollute even more, canceling out any benefit they might be able to claim.
