The costly reality of owning an electric car
Oct 7th, 2019 at 9:59am
 
How customers are being slugged $33,000 to repair cars only worth a fraction of the price - and why they can't travel long journeys.........

Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting,
"Holy Sh!t ... What a Ride!"

Fuzzy,

every man and his dog knows electric cars are just a pile of unsafe dangerous junk.

Australians are far too car aware to want to touch these dangerous unsafe very inconvenient piles of junk.

As usual the usually ignored and avoided demented loony nutty Greeny Scunge tries to get attention with some puerile rubbish.


But just to keep the normal people focused on just how dangerous and unsafe the very inconvenient pollution spewing Tesla toy "cars" really are.

The idiotic demented stupid fool the Greeny Scunge is copying her HERO she is so jealous of to try to get noticed. What a sick fool. She is stupid beyond description. Classic Greeny devoid of any intelligence and led by the snout by Greenies. Wonder where she marched as a DoomsDayer ?

What is your point socko ? Do you honestly think by continuously posting car accidents of Tesla's you are going to send the company broke ?

No one is going to take any notice of a deadbeat loser from Australia who couldn't replace a set of torch batteries in a torch Cheesy LOL

What sort of idiotic fool would talk about petrol/diesel cars in a thread about electric cars ?  Oh yes the demented wacko Greeny Scunge the Greeny with the undeveloped mind of a child in an adult body who insists on displaying her gross ignorance of just about everything.

Australians are far too aware of the very inconvenient limitations of these useless unsafe dangerous pollution spewing electric toy "cars" and don't want to risk their lives getting incinerated and killed by clouds of poisonous gas given off when a lithium fire bomb battery explodes in a fiery inferno. 

Or if it is a Tesla then having a wheel fall off when the crummy suspension breaks or being hurled into something when the dangerous heap suddenly accelerates.

Already China is swinging away from the electric toy "cars" towards the REAL future - HYDROGEN which can power big and small vehicles with quick refuel.

Now the shocking truth about child labour involved in electric toy "cars" and the environmental hypocrites that drive them until they crash..


Child labour

...

Amnesty points to serious health risks to child and adult workers in cobalt mines in the Democratic Republic of Congo, documented in a report it issued. More than half the world’s cobalt comes from southern DRC, much of it from artisanal mines that produce 20% of the country’s output.

Artisanal miners as young as seven were seen by researchers who visited nine sites including deep mines dug by hand using basic tools. Miners, the youngest of whom were earning as little as $1 a day, reported suffering chronic lung disease from exposure to cobalt dust.

Cobalt from these mines is sold on to major producers. No country has laws requiring producers to report on their supply chains, which Amnesty says means the chance electric vehicle batteries are “tainted with child labour and other abuses” is unacceptably high.

Battery manufacture now accounts for 60% of the 125,000 tonnes of cobalt mined globally each year.

A move last year by the London Metal Exchange to ban the sale of tainted cobalt was opposed by a consortium of 14 NGOs, including Amnesty, on the grounds it would simply drive the trade underground. They called for greater traceability of the mineral’s sources.

The World Economic Forum's Global Battery Alliance notes two major challenges:

"First, raw materials needed for batteries are extracted at a high human and environmental toll. This includes, for example, child labour, health and safety hazards in informal work, poverty and pollution. Second, a recycling challenge looms over the eleven million tonnes of spent lithium-ion batteries forecast to be discarded by 2030, with few systems in place to enable reuse and recycling in a circular economy for batteries."

The OECD Forum on Responsible Mineral Supply Chains meets in Paris next month, where members are expected to demand companies identify their cobalt sources. Apple, BMW, Daimler, Renault, and battery maker Samsung SDI have already agreed to publish their supply chain data.

Amnesty says most manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries takes place in China, South Korea and Japan, where electricity generation remains dependent on coal and other fossil fuels. They said makers should disclose the carbon footprint of their products.

The idiotically stupid Greeny Scunge rockets in with her child's mind in an adult body to humiliate herself yet again as she desperately tries to get noticed. She seems to be mentally disabled.


The electric toy "car" industry brutally exploits poor people in cobalt mines.

Read and be shocked here:-     https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/business/batteries/congo-cobalt-mining-f...


The electric toy "car" industry brutally exploits poor people in lithium mines.

read and be shocked here:-    https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/business/batteries/tossed-aside-in-the-l...



And the hypocrite people that drive these electric toy "cars" until they crash are supporting this brutality and exploitation of the poor.
