                  We already know this but I like this talk better than some of the others.
                  For now hybrids seems the way to go. Wonder if Hydrogen will reemerge at some point? Must have less environmental impact than mining for the battery materials.


                  For now this just works on our guilt and or sense of responsibility. Advertisers use this even is there claims are far from backed.

                    In a letter to shareholders sent in conjunction with the automakers second quarter financial results, GM chair and CEO Mary Barra wrote, “GM has also done something unique in the industry to help secure our future EV production. We have binding agreements securing all battery raw material to support our plan for 1 million units of annual EV capacity in North America in 2025. These are commitments with strategic partners for key materials like lithium, cobalt and nickel. This includes new multi-year agreements announced today by Livent Corp., for lithium, and LG Chem, for cathode material.”

                        "Details buried in the bill show Manchin’s betrayal of his West Virginia constituents may also enable wasteful spending on “green” school buses for our kids. The problem there is, these electric buses have been unpredictably bursting into flames so hot, fire departments struggle to extinguish them." With a seating capacity of up to 72 passengers plus the driver, the life lost from a single lithium battery fire of a loaded bus would far out number any school shooting.
                        Yep Slimjim BS

                        Guess its Not hidden if it's in the Bill And YOU can even read it Hhahahahahahahahaha

                        I wonder how many thousands of US Jobs it will create making Battery and Busses

                            The Los Angeles City Fire Department (LAFD) has deployed what is believed to be the first electric fire truck in North America.

                              Indiana will continue to see growth in green-related jobs, especially as we consider the transformation of Indiana's electric generation portfolio," Ryan Hadley, executive director of the Indiana Office of Energy Development, told WorkingNation in an interview for the "Green Jobs Now" project. "Over the last decade, Indiana has grown its wind generation output from virtually zero in 2008 to 6.5% percent in 2020."

                              Lightcast, which collected and analyzed original data for WorkingNation's multi-state Green Jobs Now project, estimates that there already are more than 11,678 workers in Indiana's green economy, a moderate amount when compared to other states.

                              "Green Jobs Now: Indiana" identifies the state's most in-demand green skills - "energy conservation," "energy efficiency" and "renewable energy" knowledge, according to the data - and occupations where green skills matter. It suggests certain workers could get annual salary boosts of perhaps $800 or more by applying green skills, with boosts upwards of $8,000 for some positions. That demonstrates the value to workers of learning green skills and to local economies of having training available as the federal government begins to deploy a $1.2 trillion infrastructure investment that should boost green jobs nationwide.

                              In Indiana, Lightcast estimates 1,146,364 workers, if given access to training, could be reskilled into green jobs.
