I survived my neighborhood “driveway party” unscathed except for our local busybody grilling me about my new #ElectricVehicle. She’s obsessed with what becomes of the batteries at the end of life. As a geologist, I noted that the expense and liability of mining lithium and other metals would make recycling a much more economical option (and obviously more sustainable.) I doubt that she worried about crushed ICE cars filling America’s landfills and ravines. #EVs #EVsRock https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/02/17/1068037/how-do-ev-batteries-work/
