Now those folks who don't understand "total lifecycle emissions" that the car can be recycled over and over many, many times.

The copper, the aluminum, the Li, etc.

And every time it's recycled emissions decline vs digging up ore to make one in the first place.

The same goes for electrons. Electrical power.

PV's can be recycled over and over as can the batteries that store the electrical energy.

You can't recycle oil, coal or NG.

Once it's burned (creating massive pollution)..

It's gone.

Period!

The Sun?

Well... it will be around for billions of years.

Providing all the energy humanity requires many times over with no emissions or pollution.
