If we are able to transfer to green energy, like wind, solar, or nuclear, those cars suddenly become a lot better for the environment

Most of the countries we get minerals from aren't really stable, so I question how much investment in Green Energy we can actually do there knowing that ROI is not really guaranteed.

Sodium Ion batteries are entering the market now that solve all our problems with sourcing those battery minerals. Lithium batteries will only be needed for the small things like phones within a few years.
