Default Pollution

I always laugh to myself when someone starts moaning about all the pollution and environmental damage that mining for EV materals is going to cause. I've lived in 3 different places where the oil industry polluted the beaches. The east coast of Saudi Arabia, where Aramco would occasionally have a mishap. Santa Barbara, CA, where we needed to keep a bottle of baby oil at the door to wipe the tar off our feet after going to the beach (offshore rigs). And Madeira Beach, FL, where a tanker spill created an environmental disaster and made the beaches unusable for months. Bring on the EVs!
