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.

Most of those points you can google with good results. Unfortunately common knowledge of EVs is 10 plus years out of date. Batteries are using less and less difficult materials now and will keep developing.
There is so much room to keep developing all the tech and materials in these vehicles, just like with any other cars abs tech.
Also rule out the ‘how we will manage when everyone uses one’ cars or gas stations didn’t exist forever. We made and adapted all of these things. Hell at one point you had to buy petrol from chemists!
Another thing people often bring up that needs to be ruled out of electricity is made with fossil fuels. Yes but if doesn’t have to be. Get more things using electricity and you increase demand which can be met with non fossil fuel methods and old power stations replaced. You stay on gas you don’t get that choice of how you produce (normally import) it.
