Just tripped over this on the interweb and thought you might find it of some interest..?

Me..? I prefer not to take sides, but I am ever interested in informed opinion.

It's truly staggering how fast technological development is moving. Li-Ion / Graphite batteries now are offering the prospect of 20 year / 1 miilion miles lifetimes.

So my petrol car doesn't look so bad now.

Reading that article it sort of reminded me of the obesity crisis when we all started eating low fat food but got fatter because of the extra sugar and other additives in it. I.E. by avoiding the current nasty we get something worse from additional stuff put into the solution.

It's a similar situation with Glyphosphate for weedkilling. We used to use Ammonium Sulphamate which degraded in about six to eight weeks.

Re end to end emissions - two articles make interesting reading (there is huge variation in figures for CO2 emissions generated in battery manufacture).
