   FireAnt: And yet here you are actually giving enough crap to respond to his crap comment.

   What’s that say about you? Hypocrisy much?

   Man I love watching the ideologues get into a snit. It’s so easy and predictable.

   Or…..In the words of Gen. O. P. Smith at the Chosin, “Retreating? Hell, we’re advancing in a different direction!”

   As I recall she did. But it’s been a few decades since I’ve watch it.

   Kroykali: Well, in their defense, they are doing some amazing things with old battery cells when they just aren’t good enough for EVs anymore. However the flip side to that is that there are going to be way more of them than I think they can use. And disposal of those cells, and those damaged in accidents or fires (hello? LA?) or hurricanes (Florida) is most assuredly not an easy or inexpensive thing.

   I equate it to laws of physics. You cannot wholesale switch from petroleum to electric (still carbon powered) without another issue occurring. When X happens, an equal and opposite Y happens. Or something like that.

   Hey. My pick up truck is shiny (ish). Don’t smoke dope or drink alcohol. I think I’ve used door dash once in my life.

   And that locally invested money (great as it is) does nothing for you in retirement which is the whole reason for our long term investing.

   Do it every fall. I live in a more rural suburb (there’s a contradiction) and on my three acres of land I am not leaf blowing six times. When I mow the lawn the leaves get chopped to itty bitty bits and fertilize the lawn. I do own a leaf blower, however it’s more to blow out areas I cannot get at.

   But thank God I do not live in an area where I have to deal with this.

    There are massive deposits in northern Nevada too. But the environmentalists and Indians are fighting access to them.

    It’s OK if the environment is destroyed in other places in other nations with far less stringent environmental, human rights, and work protections though.

    The hypocrisy of the environmentalist movement is astonishing. And this coming from a guy with solar on his house and who owns an EV.
