People are aware of this bit it doesn't fit in the narrative for ev Akkus.
Those are not broke after 5-10 year of usage. Small cells might be broken but replaceable and if not used for cars we still can and will use them for power storage.
And then we can recycle them.

Seems pretty clear to me. > Any idea if it’ll be a net carbon negative? Doesn't need to be carbon negative, it just needs to be less bad than what we're doing currently with ICE.
