    I wasn’t arguing. I’m all for doing everything we can to minimize the damage we have done and continue to do. But they do cause waste. And as I’m no chemical engineer, and the technology has not been around long enough on a big enough scale that I’ve come across much about the issue, I just don’t know how bad that waste is, especially in comparison to waste produced by what we’re doing now. Hence why I asked the question. Otherwise, your explanation is helpful and I thank you.

      After batteries are used up in EV’s they still have a usable lifespan in grid energy storage systems. Then after their useful life there, they can still be recycled.

      The grid “not being able to handle EVs” is a farce.
