Btw how are they planing to replace all the modern cars with electric ones, if tesla alone(and some chinese electric buses/scooters) puts so much strain on the only viable source of lithium? Electric transportation is just a small fraction of all cars produced now, with numbers rising they will need tens, hundreds times more of it.


In the end, when the price rises even more, the chinese will just come there with the military, purge the nigs and get all of mines for themselves. And nobody will object, because you need that batteries.
