The mean time that the fossil fuel industry shills will milk a single event where renewable energy infrastructure is damaged is 10 years, so we're only 5% of the way in to this crap from the usual suspects.

I won't give an ICE vehicle the acceleration that you can get out of an electric vehicle.

There's a lot less child-slave labor in the batteries in ICE cars, though

How much child slave labor is there in a battery?

So about 10% of the world’s cobalt is coming out of these artisanal mines, but you don't have an estimate for how much of that involved child labor, nor do you know how much cobalt goes into a battery.

So when you say "There's a lot less child-slave labor in the batteries in ICE cars" you've got no basis to what this "a lot" is.

If 10% of your birthday cake might be made of dog feces, would you enthusiastically eat it?
