Sooo sustainable. Seriously. Green idiocy
The most toxic and energy intensive thing you can mine is lithium. And the batteries have a very limited life, especially given the harsh conditions in Australia I am surprised the greenies don't know this. Then again the greenies have never stepped foot onto a mine site
So does our electricity costs. Up 30% next year.
Wow look at how eco friendly that lithium mine is.
So green.
Electric cars today and out to mid 2030s are powered by coal. AEMO has made that clear.
