As has been discussed here above, for some reason the subject has become a political football. If you peel away the politics, and I want to say I think everyone on this thread has been great about giving opinions and facts and points of view without making it political, it really isn't all that complex a problem, can be understood with some facts and research. What you say is what I believe, that even given the problem of lithium mining, but also given that I believe solutions to that will be coming on line, that making a significant amount of fossil fuel use go away with electric cars is one of the largest impacts on emissions and climate change that is available to us.
