Batteries are a complete carbon disaster

1) child slave labor is used to get the metals and materials such as lithium in China and cobalt in the Congo

2) Manufacturing requires 74 percent more emissions than the regular engine . You need fossil fuels to run manufacturing plant and build the cars

3) recharging needs fossil fuels

4) extremely dangerous and high pollution to get rid of batteries
 
Biodiesel is a good alternative to fossil fuels. Why not go with that?

#1. We have all the lithium we need right here in the US. You are a hypocrite concerning the Cobalt in the Congo. None of you Luddites said shit until it started being used in batteries. And there is less and less cobalt being used as batteries improve.

#2. At present. However, a couple of years of burning petrol or diesel, and that ICE has put out far more GHG's than was used in manufacturing the battery even at present. And that does not even count the CH4 and CO2 emitted in obtaining the oil, transporting it, and refining it. Basically, you have told a complete lie.

#3. I see. So batteries will not charge with electricity produced by solar, wind, hydro, or nuclear?

#4. You are totally full of shit on this. These batteries, were they products of nature, would be considered high grade ore for the metals in them. And there are already companies making a profit recycling them.
