you bad
"It's going to disappear. One day it's like a miracle, it will disappear," Trump said at the White House Thursday as the virus marched across Asia and Europe after US officials said the US should brace for severe disruption to everyday life.
The President also warned that things could "get worse before it gets better," but he added it could "maybe go away. We'll see what happens. Nobody really knows."
Totally unhinged incompetence.
@BarronVon batteries don’t cause climate change.
They are bad for the environment in different ways. The disposal issues of batteries are nothing compared to the damage of co2 emissions
The resources and how to make the batteries are bad for the environment and disposing them is bad for the environment too. That’s why there’s a hefty tax to dispose of them
@Sophie what’s wrong with that statement?
He’s right, the virus will be stopped but it takes time.
@Sophie that's only true because only 2% of new cars sold are electric. 300 million cars in the us. not including transport trucks and commercial vehicles.
300 million x 1200 lbs (weight of a tesla battery)
please lookup how much cobalt is produced globally each year
less than 100k tonnes.
nickel and cobalt are low yield return recycled
meaning the majority becomes toxic chemicals.
combustion engines will be near zero emissions one day. and the liquid fuel of methanol is 30% less volume for the same potential energy as a battery
the idea that we could replace the combustion engine vehicles on the road today with batteries is laughable and would require strip mining entire countries
the carbon investment of such a large scale of mining and manufacturing not to mention what mining does for soil degradation and water pollution.
it's like u people have no idea how the world works or where things come from or anything.

@Sophie
yea I'm sure the landfills filling up with cellphones and laptops has nothing to do with ocean acidification
@BarronVon that’s correct, they don’t cause ocean acidification.
I don’t want this mf virus gd
We’re all gonna die

This libtard Sophie needs to leave the server
@purpletomato You have total free agency to leave the server if you have a problem with her
@BarronVon your point in no way referenced my point
You listed a bunch of irrelevant stats
@purpletomato im actually a mod, but good luck with that
Btw your pfp looks like a diagram of a uterus
@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ to say it’s going to disappear is irresponsible.
How? It’s called calming the markets
It’s idiotic to say “well we’re fucked”
It’s irresponsible to say that a miracle will make it disappear
Saving lives is more important than calming the market
And if that’s his plan, it’s not working
Hydrogen and Electric cars/trucks are the future of transport. It just takes time to develop technology and get it into mass production. Hydrogen can be mass produced and is a waste product from various forms of production, whereas fossil fuels are non renewable.
> Saving lives is more important than calming the market
These aren’t mutually exclusive things, Trump is helping solve the crisis. Infact some of his policies have made it easier to tackle in the US.
