Federal and state researchers said there might be five million to 19 million tons of lithium, more than enough to meet the world’s demand for the battery ingredient.
Oh cool so we can waste those reserves on cheap dumb tat that feel they need to be recharged.
I’m for mining and taking resources if they’re going to be for good uses. If say we mine the resoruces and the resources go into making dumb product that just wastes said resource, then we don’t deserve the resources.
We’ll let’s put those kids to work!!
They crave the mines
Minors be miners
I’d prefer to mine where there is less life. Southwest AR has a decent amount of wildlife. The area around the Salton Sea would probably be better.
I like it. Let’s mine the parts of the planet we’ve already severely fucked up.
It’s a better idea than continuing to fuck up more of it for the sake of mining.
I don’t expect commercial extraction to be limited to one area.
