Texas Tech University's Jennifer Guelfo was part of a research team that found the use of a novel sub-class of per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) in lithium ion batteries is a growing source of pollution in air and water.
I wonder when the stupid is going to realize that they're being played about being/going green and saving the environment. Pssssst the Western World powers don't actually give a fk about being green and saving the environment, they just use that to create excuses to eliminate your freedoms and your access to perfectly fine resources.
Similarly, I wonder when the stupid is going to realize that perfect is the enemy of good and something can be dirty and still be a marked improvement.
Government doesn't care about these problems. They pretend to care because it is a tool for more control over the people. The people who are all about saving the environment are gonna make demands of the government, just like the government would want, and government will try to solve it in a way that only limits our freedom. Like Commiefornia, who plans to eliminate all vehicles who depends on crude oil for energy, whether its citizens like it or not.
