    …The strong implication above is that lithium extraction is fine and just a part of a “transition that must happen as quickly as it can”.

    The reality is more uncomfortable.

    Renewables (rebuildables) are much more metals intensive than fossil fuels and nuclear. Which, if we are as strategically inattentive as we currently are, carries in it the seeds of its own downfall

This chart is *just for the infrastructure* and obviously the relentless throughput of coal and gas to be burned is *staggeringly awful*.

And the mining to materials pipeline is overwhelmingly fossil-fuel powered https://dothemath.ucsd.edu/2024/08/mm-11-renewable-salvation/
