    It may suck but its a path to get off fossil fuels which are worse overall. Also, alternative battery technologies are being developed that have less lithium and cobalt needs. I would like to see interchangeable batteries from manufactures so new batteries can easily be installed on old cars without it being a hardship to the owner.
