(LOS ANGELES, Calif.) - When you look at a gleaming new electric vehicle what do you see? We love our cars, that is not in question, and our new technologies- and lithium mining for batteries for these vehicles is where it all begins.
I looked up “What is Green Technology?” on Investopedia and found this:
What Is Green Tech?
Green tech refers to a type of technology that is considered environmentally friendly based on its production process or its supply chain. Green tech— an abbreviation of "green technology"— can also refer to clean energy production, the use of alternative fuels, and technologies that are less harmful to the environment than fossil fuels.
We began this series on Lithium mining and the mining of other metals needed to create and upgrade energy systems which are considered essential. But there are problems of policy, of the enforcement of laws, and of environmental inequality and landscape destruction.
In my office, on the wall, was a page titled, "questions to ask about any new technology." It seems we can never ask enough.
