Now we see how hypocritical US environmentalists are... are they going to support the strip-mine to boost EV-vehicle & home solar-charged lithium power systems? Or will they scream about "protecting the environment" here at home, while ignoring the strip-mines in China etc.

Vs mining for coal or drilling for oil etc?

Versus bio fuel produced from the algal blooms across the oceans, and or grown in tanks. The waste product can then be used to create good bio filters for various clean air projects.

Hell no, folk are inversted in the heavy/rare minnerals due to them wanting profit rather than cleaning the eco systems.

Joined up thinking will not happen though as battle lines have been drawn up and the money divied up already. Interest groups and friends in high places, have to love it while you puke.
