Sane ThinkerLithium Americas is a Canadian company with mining projects in the Lithium Triangle of S. America. A judge just lifted an injunction against them at Thacker Pass, NV that will run over Native Americans there, and compete with drinking and agricultural water. One metric ton of lithium requires up to 500,000 gallons of water. There is nothing green about lithium. I hope you will remember this during all those glitzy EV ads. https://geoffreydeihl.substack.com/p/showdown-at-thacker-pass
Thank you for the boost. This is a heartbreaking situation. The Native Americans in this community are appallingly poor, and mining is always a filthy business. I researched this article for weeks. "...30 billion gallons per year. Also, per Lithium Nevada, the mine life is expected to be 46 years. 30 billion x 46 comes to an incomprehensible 1.38 trillion gallons of water. https://geoffreydeihl.substack.com/p/showdown-at-thacker-pass
