Wrong, only 10kg of Lithium is used per electric car, Tesla recycles Lithium from batteries properly. Currently only disadvantages to petrol are range and charge time.
Also hydrogen vehicles waste a lot of energy pumping hydrogen upto very high pressures near 1000 atmospheres I don't want to be near the tank when it explodes after hitting a rock on the road. Hydrogen leaks under pressure being the smallest molecule being much harder to contain than water. Metal hydride storage avoids the pressure at the extra expense of carring around metal hydride to store the hydrogen molecules.
Also electric tesla charging stations should be built around solar panels, electricity wind turbines, and small hydro electric generators, people should then have a https://pumps.ie like websiite giving in real time the storage of the stations supercapicitors or battery saying whether the station is ready to charge a vehicle and this added to google maps and automatic car driving so that fuel can be filled practically for free on relevant days. It costs 3 million euro to run copper wires 2km to an electric transformer. So the charging station will need a tow car in case a vehicle gets stopped on the way up also decent roads need to be built to the wind turbines or wires run to a suitable location.
Farmers can negociate with wind turbine installers to put in a free charging station for electric tractors.
Win win win
