      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

      The only way that would be avoided were if we kill the majority of the human population and the rest agrees to live in caves and shit in holes.

      At least this takes off pressure on other resources.
