@Rekall_Incorporated unless it's for lithium recycling, any research on lithium batteries and technology right now feels like wasted energy and human potetial. #lithium mines are a man-made plague in this planet than need to be minimized. why not work on sodium #batteries instead and cleanner more efficient lithium #recycling? at least this way we can be more resilient for our green technologies, while working towards #degrowth goals in the global north.

Because no matter how hard we crusade here, I still can't find anything other than lithium chemistry batteries.

Don't let perfect be in the way of good. First and foremost, we need to drive oil off the product spec. Even if it's not all refined products, each and every one of them will leave a hole in the industries revenue stream.
