hey elon, how does it feel to be one of the spearheads of this very short-sighted (from every single standpoint; from the fact that to make one single ev battery takes tons of raw material ore to be processed, with environmental toxins and hazardous byproducts being made and released into the environment at all levels along the way (and that require petroleum to acquire and ship all those resources around the world for processing, manufacture, and then to reach market); to the fact that you have to destroy literal mountains and dig up resources that were deposited millions to billions of years ago that are absolutely not renewable in any way, shape, or form; once that ore is dug up, that's it, and we are depleting the earth's crust of those rare earth minerals in such a fast rate that there won't be any easy to access deposits in a hundred years or less. at least there is cause to believe (that you and the rest of the "elites" know about, but will absolutely not tell the rabble and peons anything about it (and all you "in the know" reading this will take great pleasure in reading this and being able to share how easily debunkable and "nonsense" this idea is); as revealing that information would upset the instilled paradigms of thought that you have all the neo-serfs under for this current phase of civilizational re-structuring and societal management) that there are deep geological processes that regenerate oil wells, so this idea that oil will "run out" before all rem are strip mined out of the crust is extremely laughable in comparison.) "green industrial revolution" and one of the key players in the poisoning of the planet, all for short (given how much unquantifiable environmental damages will be caused, and how many years and resources will be needed to treat the problems in all the immediate environmental vicinities, and then how much it will cost the people (in life lost and in medical damages) surrounding such areas) economic gains?
