Very true. Located in the Swarzwald. The oldest natural forest in Europe. To get it, you just have to get rid of that forest. Happy times.....

Glad I looked this up, not...

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery pollution stems from toxic metals (cobalt, nickel) leaching from landfills, hazardous electrolyte chemicals (PFAS, solvents) released during disposal or fires, and significant water/land use/pollution from mining, creating soil/water contamination, air pollutants (PM, VOCs), and microplastics, despite recycling efforts being crucial but often inefficient due to cost and immature technology.

Improper disposal leads to leachate contaminating soil and water, while recycling processes themselves can generate harmful ash, slag, and emissions, posing risks to ecosystems and human health.

There indeed is no shortage in the ways we can pollute ourselves :/

You did not even care to look up the statement my comment was addressing. That there is a large deposit on Lithium in Germany.......And what that means...

There is no 'Not'. My statement is correct. Prove me otherwise on the statement I made, not on a statement you think I made.
