This is a fair point! Lithium mines do have their fair share of issues. However, the end result (hybrid cars vs gas) is better for the environment overall.
It's not perfect, but it's better than pipelines and gas emissions.
So if neither one is good for the environment, but one is just a teensy bit better, does it make sense to overhaul all the infrastructure and force everyone to get new vehicles? This is like putting a bandaid on a 6inch gash. You may stop some bleeding, but it’s not effective. There are better technologies out there and electric cars are definitely not the way.

I didn't say it was a teensy bit better. I think it's considerably better.
Explain the science please. You think it is? I actually went to school for this stuff. Would love to have a debate.
The science of hybrid cars vs standard cars? Emissions alone is what I'm basing it off of.
