  1. Meet the new wars, same as the old wars - just substitute rare earth elements #RREs for oil, with EVs driving it all.

    "We will coup whoever we want" - Elon Musk

    #OverConsumption is at the core of our problems. More consumption just leads down the same old paths.

  6. S&P Global has completed a look at the #LimitedResources needed by the #ClimateChange incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act for EVs and #renewableEnergy.

    "energy-transition-related US demand for the critical
    minerals lithium, nickel and cobalt, taken together, will be 23 times higher in 2035 than it was in 2021. For copper, it will be twice as high. This is equivalent to
    compound annual growth rates of 25% for the three critical minerals and 4% for copper." Most of that is for EV batteries

  11. @Salty And if you've got 300 miles of range on your EV, you're using up precious lithium, copper, and other #LimitedResources without any compensation to the commons just for the convenience of using the same vehicle for the 2% of all trips that are longer than 100 miles.

  16. This is fantastic. When you stack functions by making #EV batteries also function as backup power, it begins to offset the wastefulness & #overconsumption inherent in EV culture as currently implemented with heavy batteries overusing #lithium and other #LimitedResources to have ranges 3x what is needed for 98% of all trips. Of course it would be FAR more efficient if you weren't using energy to unnecessarily move your battery storage around, but I'll take it.

  21. EVs are a green #consumption solution driven by the inertia of affluence that magically assumes everyone can afford to trade in their already embodied carbon vehicles & spend 2x as much to emit more carbon manufacturing a new car that uses new #LimitedResources like lithium in 10yr lifetime batteries that are only recycled at a rate of 5%. All we need to do is issue mandates to car companies and build a massive network of charging station infrastructure.

    First of all, the reason I'm posting so much stuff about #LimitedResources is because I agree that the rush to switch the fleet to EVs is based on magical thinking and #OverConsumption

    But #RareEarth materials remain an issue because of that consumption. While electronics use far less per item, that's offset by the fact that there are 7B smart phones in the world vs 1.4B cars. phones are replaced every 2yrs or so. and the recycling recovery is of RareEarths is less than 1%

    The requirement for wind renewable energy is, thankfully, far less than that required to replace the 800m personal ICE fleet with the 1bn EVs as Tesla hope for, and as MIT recently modelled.

    The consumer electronics market is a side show here, both in importance and volume, and use in LED lighting is orders of magnitude smaller.

    The major benefit is the reduced ecological footprints of public transport over personal transport vehicles (#EVs or ICEs) and journeys.

    Electrified and efficient, or possibly green hydrogen fuelled, public transport is the icing on the cake.

    Good job we don't need EVs!

    We need public transport and bicycle and pedestrian friendly communities.
