I think the best bet is to figure out how to get desalination plants to also scrub CO2 and lithium from seawater. With government subsidies, it might actually turn a profit, and we'll need to do all three of those things anyway.
(Scrubbing CO2 from the atmosphere would also work, but would take longer to address ocean acidification.)

This is a feel-good technology, something to placate the population that something is being done. We have better factories. They're called trees.
