Simple truth about Technology in Regard to Future Energy Needs

Description

The concept of electric cars is great. No emissions are the best part. What they are not telling you is that the batteries are not recyclable, and no one accepts the batteries for disposal. Thousands of these cars that were used by the French government as police cars and other bureaucratic transportation. Now the cars are worn out and the batteries are more expensive than the car is worth, so they are all lined up sitting around leaking toxic substances into the ground as the batteries slowly deteriorate. Much like the blades from the wind generators. Well-intentioned but still detrimental to the environment "This machine is required to move 500 tons of earth/ ore which will be refined into one lithium car battery. It burns 900-1000 gallons of fuel in a 12-hour shift. Lithium is refined from ore using sulfuric acid. The proposed lithium mine at Thacker Pass is estimated to require up to 75 semi loads of sulfuric acid a day! The acid does not turn into unicorn food like AOC believes. A battery in an electric car, let's say an average Tesla, is made of 25 pounds of lithium, 60 pounds of nickel, 44 pounds of manganese, 30 pounds of cobalt, 200 pounds of copper, and 400 pounds of aluminum, steel, and plastic, etc....... averaging 750-1,000 pounds of minerals, that had to be mined and processed into a battery that merely stores electricity...... Electricity which is generated by oil, gas, coal, nuclear, or water (and a tiny fraction of wind and solar).... That is the truth, about the lie, of "green" energy. There’s nothing green about the green new deal. You people better learn how to vote, or this nonsense will continue to flow down on top of you from the throne of government you put these people on." Lithium batteries generate pollution in several ways. The main and most damaging is due to the emissions that the material generates when it is not properly recycled and/or stored. Secondly, its contamination can reach the water, and the damage it generates to the marine environment and all its habitats is affected by it. Of all the sectors, the automotive sector is the most influential. It is estimated that by 2025 it will account for 90% of the entire lithium battery market. The rise of electric cars is driving the development of lithium batteries even further, but as they wear out, more and more of these components will accumulate, and their recycling becomes even more necessary. Silly, Silly Greenies, they are using your agenda to advance theirs. If they really wanted a green agenda, then you would forget poor technologies like wind and solar and opt. for Hydrogen. Hydrogen takes less power to produce than what it takes to charge billions of vehicles. Electric batteries are dirty and dangerous. The current state of automotive technology is easily adaptable to Hydrogen fuel. Much the same technology is already available in the use of natural gas and propane powered vehicles. Hydrogens only emission is water and heat. The production of electricity to produce Hydrogen is much cleaner. If the people who back battery technology really cared more about the environment, than they do their pocketbooks, they would be supporting a no brainer like Hydrogen. Silly Greenies, they are using you. The concept of wind and solar are just not well grounded in Engineering. 50% of the carbon emissions produced each year is created by the 1%ers. Private jets produce 2 metric tons of carbon per hour of flight. Their mansions produce 10 times the emissions a normal 2000 sqft. single family home does. Even their cars are major contributors, especially since very few of them drive electric cars or even a Prius. But they want you to eat bugs and fake meat and forget beef. Before you know it, we will be eating Soylent Green.
