Mining ore’s for batteries is also better for the environment than drilling / transporting / refining oil for ICE fuels.
I beg to differ. Mining in REE rich countries has a far more detremental impact on the enviroment and human health. Deep sea mining for REE has been temporaiy halted due to scientists, will have a far fetching impact on the ecosystem, disturb the carbon stored in the seabed and release it.
Are EV’s better for the enviroment, well that depends on how look at it and whether you are talking about the UK or countries where it is mined.
