    Those are the facts, and any other arguments are either borne from ignorance or poor research.

    There are currently 1 billion cars in the world which according to you will be replaced with EVs within the next 10/15 years

    That's a lot of lithium, cobalt and rare earths Barg

    Tesla sees a problem with supply to build the batteries

    How big will that problem become when GM, Ford, VW, Toyota etc get in on the act of sourcing the same products
    at a time when house batteries will also be trying to convert solar energy from suburbia's roof tops

    and all to be accomplished within the next 10/15 years

    I think hydrogen cars may have a better of revolutionising the car industry rather than lithium/cobalt based electric power

    But you were correct about your bit about poor research and ignorance
