Loosely following this conversation.
Question for you - Where does the 14 million tons figure come from?
Google. And I did say "even if that's off by a factor of 10" because it could be a low estimate.
But if we're talking about a 10 year timeframe, it doesn't even matter, because we won't have mined and refined that much. Last year, about 100k tons of lithium were mined. Even if that increases by a factor of 10 in 10 years, we still won't have mined even 10 million tons worldwide, let alone refined it, manufactured batteries, deployed to grid storage, etc.
And apparently there's a lot more lithium in seawater, but like sodium batteries, it probably won't go from hypothetical to mass filtering and production and refining in under 10 years. Finally, I don't know how to estimate US storage capacity needs but I'm guessing it's a LOT more than 200M tesla batteries.
Sodium batteries are already entering mass production next year by multiple manufacturers.
Humans can achieve amazing things when we put our minds to it. The hardest part of getting off fossil fuels is just deciding that's what we will do.

president mcscandal is still scandaling, while he sweats in NJ and Mar-a-Trasho.
he clearly sicced the IRS on Comey and McCabe, two law enforcement offers who dared go after trump's crimes. This is what we are in for when trump is re-elected. Or DeSantis - he's shown he's 100% for using government apparatus to go after opponents.
We're doomed.
1 in 950 million chance this happened innocently. Rs will try to brush it under the rug.
Among tax lawyers, the most invasive type of random audit carried out by the I.R.S. is known, only partly jokingly, as “an autopsy without the benefit of death.”
The odds of being selected for that audit in any given year are tiny — out of nearly 153 million individual returns filed for 2017, for example, the I.R.S. targeted about 5,000, or roughly one out of 30,600.
One of the few who received a bureaucratic letter with the news that his 2017 return would be under intensive scrutiny was James B. Comey, who had been fired as F.B.I. director that year by President Donald J. Trump. Furious over what he saw as Mr. Comey’s lack of loyalty and his pursuit of the Russia investigation, Mr. Trump had continued to rail against him even after his dismissal, accusing him of treason, calling for his prosecution and publicly complaining about the money Mr. Comey received for a book after his dismissal.
Mr. Comey was informed of the audit in 2019. Two years later, the I.R.S., still under the leadership of a Trump appointee after President Biden took office, picked about 8,000 returns for the same type of audit Mr. Comey had undergone from the 154 million individual returns filed in 2019, or about one in 19,250.
Among those who were chosen to have their 2019 returns scrutinized was the man who had been Mr. Comey’s deputy at the bureau: Andrew G. McCabe, who served several months as acting F.B.I. director after Mr. Comey’s firing.36 -

I know I'm 5 or 10 years late on this but I can't believe Hillary Clinton thought after destroying Libya that she should be President of the USA

Wow! Bad news for the Biden supporters.
The democrat party wants to get rid of Biden for 2024.
It’s pretty clear that the left is organizing to dump Joe Biden when it becomes evident that he’s a certain loser in 2024. Rather than waiting for a Ted Kennedy-like figure to challenge him in the 2024 primaries, which would likely doom Democrats to certain defeat, the left will need to push him out early, and clear the calendar for one or more Democrats to organize a serious presidential campaign

Biden is getting slammed from his own party and it's nonstop.
"Democrats are getting extremely frustrated and are now blaming the Biden White House for the party’s woes come November. ‘He’s Missing the Boat Here’: Democrats Slam Biden Over Flailing Leadership, Lack of Fight on Guns and Abortion,” wrote Mediaite.
“Frustrated Democrats express alarm over Biden’s powerlessness,” stated The Hill. “‘Be absolutely furious’: Dems want more from Biden after Highland Park,” said POLITICO.
The Democrats are fully aware that the lay of the land is not in their favor come November. They are now willing (some of them on the record) to blast the Biden administration as inefficient, rudderless, etc., and in dire need of some energy at the very least. And they are absolutely correct on that note, by the way. Biden gives public statements and just sounds like a tired old man.
Wow.
Lets go Brandon!

seems to me trump could tear newsom apart every day and twice on sunday...he's like a giant target, a classic coastal liberal who won't or can't play rough. Newsom will try to skate over the Republican feces-throwing but it will make him look weak.
As for desantis....who knows. Clearly he has authoritarian and maybe fascist leanings and loves the culture wars. Will be excite the morans? Will he get them to transfer their deep love for spanky to desantis? I doubt it. For the ma'gas everyone is going to be a giant letdown after their cult leader disappears off the scene. No one will fill his shoes.

Joe Biden destroyed Trump in the Presidential debates.
As for coastal elite, you’ve described Trump to a tee.

How can the president take fuel from our strategic petroleum reserve and send it to China?
It makes perfect sense now:
42 -
Oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is not to be released so the government can sell it to our enemies. It's to be used for emergencies or warfare. What makes this even more insane is that this oil was sold to the Chinese gas company Hunter Biden invested in.
Impeach Joe Biden 2023.

the oil price spike is a *market failure* not a *political failure*
Don't let people tell you it's because of anything Joe did.
oil companies were so shocked by COVID that they cut back on investing in production. Same for refiners. That mistake made them lose billions of dollars of potential profits and cost worldwide consumers billions of extra collars.
Exxon CEO taking the blame:
$XOM CEO last month: "The pandemic really sucked a lot of the investment out of the industry...It's been a two-year significant reduction in investment...To respond to that effectively, you are probably looking at 3 to 5 years of continued fairly tight markets."

Hey, gas prices are going down! Have been going down! For weeks, it turns out!
Isn't that great? WOW!
And the June jobs reported was markedly better than most predicted: almost 400,000 new jobs added! Isn't that wonderful? We're so lucky that things seem to be going in the right direction!
