These people are insane. Are they planning mass depopulation or something? They cant keep up with the lithium and cobalt and rare earth metal requirements for these garbage batteries. They arent recyclable. Theres nothing in place to deal with their disposal on mass scale. An electric car has a $12000 battery and is easier to replace the car than install the battery and pay for it. We have giant fucking holes in the ground scarring the planet filled with toxic and radioactive shit to get these materials out of the ground in africa where it is mined by children who handle it with bare hands half the time. They die in agony if they survive long enough and work for nothing. Literal slave labour. All so Elon Musk and his ilk can make $100 billion in one year during a pandemic and so make believe communists can pretend they are sticking it to the man buying every apple product under the sun.
The production of the fucking battery alone produces roughly equivilant to 10 years of carbon emissions from driving the car. Just the battery. This doesnt count the recharging electricity that comes from magic to this fuck heads and not from carbon emitting power plants. It doesnt coutn the maintenence and production of the new electric car. Half the car will be made from oil based products and byproducts. The steel will require fucking coal and flux and so on to produce. The polymere bodies are entirely fucking oil based. Lets destroy our oil industry and infrastructure. Sounds wonderful. I'm sure we can live off tim hortons and mcdonalds and shoppers drug mart as our national job sectors.

Fun fact: Decomposing corpses give off greenhouse gasses.
