This development is a goldmine opportunity to reduce America’s economic and energy dependence on foreign states and to create thousands of clean, good-paying middle-class jobs.
We will destroy the environment trying to produce enough lithium to give every person in North America a car, when we should have been switching over to free public transport.
I agree we should have built better transportation infrastructure, but we will not destroy the environment by producing lithium batteries, especially with only two sites that collectively contain at least 200 times the current global use of lithium.
Humanity objectively makes the planet a worse place. Since our first steps, we’ve driven 70% of all species to extinction. Every day we drive 150 more.
If any other organism was this destructive in any environment we would work to eradicate it.
Not necessarily. It depends how it’s mined. Lilac is partnered up with Lake Resources and have a proven, patented, and tested tech of ion-exchange instead of hard rock mining.
= no digging and recycled water use (no evaporation).

Personally I think it’s too late anyway, so why destroy another habitat?
If it’s too late anyway…
Have you been to Arizona?
300 years of developed sustainable technology go a long way
Guess we’ll see!
Environmental nihilism only serves to make the world a worse place.

Human exceptionalism is disgusting.
It’s not an either/or situation
The Salton Sea is already an environmental disaster. This just makes the best use of it.
