Don’t get me wrong. I know the vehicle itself will have way lower emissions and than a regular gas or diesel vehicle, but what I’m confused on is that they will have to mine to get the raw materials to make these batteries and then once the battery is done it’s lifespan they will need to find a way to dispose or recycle these batteries. Imagine doing that capacity when the whole world has transitioned to EV.

With an EV, you have to dig a hole once.
With a gas car you have to dig a hole every tank of gas.
Also all the materials in the EV are fully recyclable and will be in the material stream for a century or more. A tiny bit of your new car probably has hundred year old steel in it.
