I hear they can build 15 combustion vehicles for the build of 1 EV as far as use of fossil fuels.
My opinion...The mfg of these "super batteries" should be held responsible for recycling them into their components. I don't care if it means more costs.We, the public,trusting and buying should not be be involved in trying to get rid of them.We have zero knowledge of this system..Therefore idiots will jerk them out and throw them in the backyard or the nearest river so they can sell the remainder as scrap...Common sense tells you it will happen...
RIGHT ON, Brother Bill!!!

If we really want to save fossil fuels, i say we trade Recycling for longer cycle times. Household appliances: tje appliances of the '70's may not be as electrically efficient BUT many are still running (our old Cubs are an example). It has to be more fossil fuel efficient to run a less efficient machine then it is to throw out, recycle, and build a new short life appliance. Recycling... fuel to get appliance to recycler, recycler using many machines to separate plastics from metals. Not to mention the climate controlled buildins to do this work. Then all the energy used to melt down to raw materials. The EPA needs to look at this perspective.
A one year old car, if all airbags deploy in a small car accident, thd car is totalled due to price of airbag costs. That fixable car is scrapped. Makes no sense. Our Dictators forced airbags on us. It should be a choice. Let the people snd car manufacturers decide whats important.
