Does the computer you use to post this run on diesel too? Your phone?
The problem with batteries is that they are not a source of energy. You still need energy to generate the electricity to put in them. You could used Diesel for that or, more likely, you could use gas.
Spot the natural gas production going on here. No, not the giant wind turbines but the smaller towers in between.
Diesel isn’t the “source” of energy either. Much like a battery, all hydrocarbon products are simply the storage medium for the source energy—the environmental hydrogen and carbon sequestered in the soil millions of years ago.
The very real, very physical and obvious problem, devoid of politics, is that millions of years worth of carbon safely sequestered underground has been re-released into the atmosphere in just 150 years since the beginning of the industrial revolution.
Enjoy your 100 degree days. This is the new reality. Even God’s own sunshine and wind stored in a battery is not going to save mankind now. We fucked up.
The earth will be fine, and mining scars like that alleged lithium mine in the illustration will heal over the next millions of years. Humans will be replaced by something else.
Environmentalists want to save humanity. The earth always has and always will take care of itself. It’s humans that are fucked.
Carbon dioxide is FOOD for all plants which generate oxygen for you to breath. How is that a dangerous toxin, again? You are literally advocating killing yourself by actively reducing breathable oxygen without even knowing it.
6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Carbon dioxide + water + energy from light produces glucose and oxygen.

Note the proportional drop in Oxygen for EACH reduction in CO2. It is directly proportional 1:1.
Also note that plants increase their absorption of carbon dioxide when it increases. This is why it is pumped into greenhouses to the extent that humans working inside have to wear breathing gear.
Nobody said CO2 is a toxin. It traps heat in the atmosphere. Hence, the rising temperatures.
More plants would be great, but what we actually do is wipe out large areas of the Amazonian basin for strip mining.
So, less plants every day. Your source is called “Sciencing”? Adorable.
