In China, Tesla uses Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries (the best). These have no cobalt and do not contribute to child mining in the Congo.
In the US, Tesla uses Lithium Ion, Nickel-Cobalt-Manganese and Nickel-Cobalt-Aluminum batteries, all of which have cobalt and contribute to child mining in the Congo.
Teslas built in the US are inferior to Teslas built in China in almost every way. They are built by US labour to much lower quality levels (I posted that link before but can repost it if you wish) and they use inferior batteries which require cobalt.
Many. Mostly the Congolese government, but China is a big player. Michele, I am under no delusions that the Chinese are not oppressive and exploitative, much more so than Americans. I just note that on the one point of battery production, your criticism isnât valid.
Honda is screwed, anyway. They currently sell 0.6% battery EVs. They let the ship sail without them, and now theyâre never going to catch up. I am tempted to sell Honda and Nissan short. Perhaps Toyota, too.
Since your nothing without radios and your two manufacturers are Chinese and Japanese you often try to pit these groups against each other and objectify them for radio function, which you donât have by yourself.
I like your edit feature and delete. But you have this feature which people here seem to use to not allow others to delete things previously typed. Maybe itâs there way if holding people accountable for their words. You seem to stand by that.
That said. This said was a very poor choice by yourself.
Condolences to the loved ones and families of the victims.
You love to see american death and violence. The guy who did it looks just like you. Same look like he canât wake up or get up. Same mannerisms, same expressions and same voice.
lol no i saw him editing and deleting his posts too
apparently you can freely edit and delete posts within the few mins of making it?
but if someone quickly replies they can see the status that someone is typing / editing their post
lol i doubt reg is capable of such horrible action; i think even when he is pushed over his limit he would still be way too worried for his own safety
Lithium batteries create toxic fires. They burn for days with all measures to stop them. They please massive amounts of pollution. People protested a battery storage facility and were just ignored. Sure enough a fire in on of the trailer containment units. It was hard to believe how much atmosphere it choked off and how it just kept burning so hot and so long.
