Just last week at a local eatery, we watched in horror as two 20-something kids tried to park in a crowded lot. They tried 3 different spaces...
My nephew isn't stupid. He is just so self-absorbed and addicted to social media that he hasn't learned anything by seeing the real world around him. I had him help me plant some bushes once. He stood in one spot and dug all around himself. I had to tell him you stand outside of the hole you are digging, not in the center of it.
We need to recycle these batteries and not dispose of them barring them is only going to make the problem a hellva lot worse latter
Agreed. Question, are our current lead acid batteries recycled?
Lithium ion batteries are quite a bit different than lead acid to recycle. Much more expensive materials in there so it is cost effective to recycle. The key is to figure out how.
OK, so current L/A batteries are recycled, wasn't sure. I know Li-Ion are different but I have to hope the manufacturers are working diligently on ways of recycling them.
Tesla and other manufactures have been recycling lithium ion batteries for some time. They have taken cells that cannot be used in high output high demand conditions such as EVs and re purposed them for energy storage for houses. Once they are no longer usable as a battery in general though is where a cost effective approach to recycling materials in the cell is required.
