Why you should recycle your batteries

Why you should recycle your batteries

Doesn't produce air pollution, at least in traditional sense.

So there is air pollution, but since it isn't burned, everything is a-okay...

This feels like propaganda. Where do we make lithium batteries in the USA?

You caught on. They have to now separate lithium from cobalt, and the only way to do that is with a process that requires a lot of heat.

Few things:

1) The video is interesting and mildly informative. It’s a whole new industry ramping up which means new job and career opportunities. Cool. Worth a watch.

2) I find Jerry’s overly polished delivery annoying as fuck. I’ve watched a few of his other videos and I think he’s a paid shill for the electric car industry. I don’t trust him much.

3) I actually support the development of electric cars and such. It is a more efficient use of energy. However, our current level of battery technology SUCKS. So I don’t like the stage we’re at and I feel like the jews are keeping us here because they can more easily control us (cars having low ranges and long charge times). If an electric car had a solid range of 600 miles and took no more than 15 minutes to charge, I’d absolutely buy one. That would be fine. Also, if charging stations generated their own electricity or stored electricity (like gasoline in underground tanks), I’d trust the system a lot more. As it stands now, if the jews decide to shut down the grid then we’re not getting any electricity.

Came here to agree with this. I can't really watch his videos anymore. His abuse-the-phone videos were a little funny at first.

Agreed, electric vehicles can be great, it just needs to be the kind that develop in a free market without massive subsidies, laws crushing competition, and brainwashing. I imagine that if these hadn't been done, we'd have interesting electric vehicles that weren't trying to be cars.

Covid lockdown would have been a lot more troublesome if they could have shut down gas stations.
