blazera , 8 days ago to Memes in Nuclear isn't perfect, but it is the best we have right now.

People just feel like there has to be a catch with renewable energy and latch onto the idea of rare earth metals. Besides cobalt having some use in some kinds of lithium batteries right now, theres not really rare earth stuff going into renewables. Solar panels are silicon and aluminum, wind turbines are simple machines connected to a magnet spinning inside coils of copper, lithium batteries are already being made with iron as the other component.

Shocked pikachus all around.

A reminder that this is just discretionary spending going to the highways, but the bulk of the infrastructure bill is even more highway funding. But the climate effects are offset with even more SUV sales. Let me know if yall figure out any new ways to make things even worse.
