I do think that we need to move towards renewable energy and nuclear but this is good news for the short term since we were almost 100% reliant on China to get battery resources.
While the goal would be to move things over quickly, this is decent news for now
I agree. Sadly often resource discoveries are used as an argument to postpone progress.
This is the way

I can’t be alone in thinking that picture featured a trebuchet?
