Silly Wabbits posting rubbish..........What came first, the Lithium Battery or the extraction of Lithium from Lithium bearing ore and fluids? How do U make a good stinking Bier fart without drinking Bier? That is why the European Union has identified Lithium as a strategic material!

When it comes to the extraction of the minerals and the treatment of metals used in batteries, these processes usually take place outside of the EU, and in some cases in countries unable or unwilling to implement adequate health, labour and environmental protection conditions. The EU should not offshore the environmental impact of the production of the batteries used in Europe.

Environmental, health and social conditions within the EU are amongst the highest in the world, but nothing prevents the development of fully compliant extractive activities here as it is already the case for some metals.
