It’s going to be mined somewhere. Acting like American land is too sacred to be mined for lithium while mining has equally bad if not worse effects on other places is basically NIMBYism for resource extraction. And while BANANAs might be effective in urban development, I don’t think too many people and especially not developed worlders want the effects of that if the philosophy is applied to mining lithium.
