The Dangerous and Misguided Promise of the Electric Vehicle
M. G. Bucholtz
This book explores the backstory behind the push for electric vehicles, looking at the history of energy storage using batteries, and the availability and sustainability of the metals, minerals, and chemicals used in making lithium-ion batteries, and argues that the use of electric vehicles will not save the planet, but only ease people’s guilt and divert their attention.
