The refusal to recognize the devastating human cost of producing these EVs amounts to wilful ignorance on the part of buyers and sellers alike.

All that seems to matter is grabbing the latest ‘thing’ and somehow convincing themselves that they are helping…something.

Neither critical thinking nor, Heaven forbid, a conscience has informed the EV drivers of my acquaintance to any discernible degree.

One glimmer of hope is that ports all over the world are clogged up with unsold and unwanted electric vehicles.

The EV market has pretty well collapsed, and manufacturers are having to stop or claw back production.

Not that their decisions are made in consideration of the unconscionable conditions of African slave labourers. As ever, it’s about money and profits.

Ditto about the piling up of unwanted EV's. A customer's neighbour has a daughter who really wanted an EV so her dad bought her a used one. Two months later the battery died. He could not get a replacement at ANY cost. The car was junk.

Wow! Absolutely ridiculous! That’s insane what they are doing to Canadians. The harsh, dangerous & deadly conditions those people in the Congo are working in, it breaks my heart to see this is happening. I once heard a story of a kid was going to get medicine for him family, the ended up going to the mine to make some extra money to pay for the medicine & he end up dying in the mine & it was ALL COVERED UP & no one gets any blame for innocent children dying. I hope the Canadians come together VERY SOON & realize what their government are planning!!!

1) Cobalt has been mined and used-up for 100 years by Glencore to be used to refine gasoline 2) Glencore is the company who was sued for Slave Labor 3) Tesla pays African's to pick up dirt, A Job. No "slave labor". 4) Future Tesla batteries do not use Cobalt. 50% already do not use Cobalt, it's LFP, Lithium, Iron and Phosphate. @ TeslaLeaks.com

I always like to hear both sides of a story. Thanks. Getting to the truth these days can be hard so thanks for shedding some truth light on this situation.

Appreciate the perspective, had heard that wastewater from fracking contains ingredients for future batteries, awaiting the US ban on the use of that so as to facilitate continued chaos abroad as opposed to jobs at home

What brand of vehicle? I wonder if he'll have to pay to scrap it or it could spontaneously combust in her driveway. I'm sure you noticed the 100% tariffs that are being put on Chinese import EVS, recently it's been discovered that battery materials are found in fracking water in Pennsylvania, awaiting our government banning the use of that to enable the Congo catastrophe to continue

This must be the equity they keep talking about. If you asked someone in local government what all of their buzz words really mean they wouldn't be able to without sounding ridiculous. They have zero intention of supplying electric cars or much else to the current population as we all know.

Maybe so but do you really think that Tesla, or Musk isn't part of an enslavement technofascist plan? I'd go to Rising Tide Foundation to get the real history of who Tesla is and Musk's family history is. People don't want electrical vehicles and there is absolutely free energy being used by our military now I have no doubt. You get to stay in the scarcity model with whatever advances they pretend to woo people with will continue that model absolutely.

You mean Rockefeller Medicine and Rockefeller Oil that invented global warming, carbon taxes, carbon credits and smart cities? You mean nobody wants the 20M EV's sold per year? You mean the gas stations that read your license plate when you drive in, scan's your face when you walk in? That's "Freedom"? 100% of Tesla owners charge to full at home, with solar. The "Sun" is scarce? That's "Fascism"? Owning your own energy?

and when those evs catch on fire which they spontaneously do - its really hard to put out..and re-ignites multiple times. takes so much water to put an ev fire out

Besides Italian exotics spontaneously combusting, I'm not aware of 200 times more fires per capita from gas to electric or vice versa, can you provide evidence? I've saved your website and subscribed, thanks

This is very close to home for me. We have spent some time in Africa, with the longest time being three months in Ghana. We managed a guesthouse for missionaries there. I have been enraged at the many ways the people of Africa have been used and abused; being used as guinea pigs for vaccines, for example. Those who try to virtue signal about their concern for the environment are hypocrites.

It seems like there is some progress in the understanding regarding the dangers of Mining of Cobalt:

The following web site https://fresh-energy.org/whats-up-with-the-cobalt-used-in-ev-batteries indicates that far more Cobalt is being used for small electrical appliances like cell phones, laptops, and tablets, then is being used in electrical vehicles. It also states that due to the unethical and unsafe labor practices of mining Cobalt, and because EV cars do not actually need Cobalt to work, the industry is moving away from Cobalt ( the newest Tesla battery is only 5% cobalt) and is rapidly progressing away from using it entirely- that is what the effort to incorporate nickel-iron-aluminum or lithium-iron- phosphate batteries in EV technology represent. Still we need to complain and take action with regard to Cobalt use in Cell phones, laptops, and tablets, before we complain about its use in EV vehicles as that revision in the EV industry is already happening. Does that mean everyone stops using cellphones, laptops and tablets? It is worth considering. Or shall one continue to use those common devices while a better solution is developed? If one complains about the use of Cobalt for EV vehicles, and stops buying them for that reason, then they must of necessity complain and take action about its use in all areas of our life. Otherwise those protests about EV batteries are less then convincing. I am not suggesting a position one way or the other. I am merely stating the facts of the overall situation that need to be considered

This video doesn't go far enough; NOT EVEN CLOSE!

Lets face reality.....the Zombies in the 'First World' really care NOTHING about Slave Labor 'somewhere else'.

Zombies should be shown ALL of the EVIL from 'EVs'!

Start at the Slave Labor. Tell how many DIE at these 'mines'; and how many get ill from mining these toxic things. Show the COST ($$$) of what it takes to process what is being mined. This cost should include the oil/gas it takes for EVERYTHING involved......right up to the delivery to the battery/car factories.

Then go into 'all things batteries'. The cost (energy) in making these, as well as the Health of the workers making these HIGHLY TOXIC batteries. Then go into the COSTS for the EV OWNERS. The $$ that one will be spending on batteries; and more important......the HEALTH of the people who WILL BE 'SITTING ON' these HIGHLY TOXIC batteries, AS THEY ARE DRIVING. These batteries do SERIOUS DAMAGE to HUMAN HEALTH (and Zombies are putting their KIDS ON THESE BATTERIES???!!). Don't forget to throw in the fact that these MORONS are literally SITTING ON BOMBS (the batteries), AS THEY DRIVE! Include the ENDLESS vids of EVs BLOWING UP/CATCHING FIRE! DO include EV scooters/bikes......they seem to like to 'blow up' IN PEOPLE HOUSES. Would YOU park an EV car/truck in your garage/in the driveway NEXT TO YOUR HOME?! ALSO INCLUDE the TENS OF THOUSANDS GALLONS OF WATER that Fire Depts WASTE by putting out these EV BLAZES. A NORMAL car/truck fire uses A SMALL FRACTION of those gallons of water, to put out a 'normal fire'. Same with a house/apartment EV FIRE.......MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF WATER to put those out! Talk about SELFISH!!!!!!!!! EV MORONS and THEIR FIRES are USING UP OTHER PEOPLE WATER!!! WASTING WATER!!!!!!!!! MASSIVE.....MASSIVE......MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF WATER!

Then we have 'Dead EV Batteries'! That CANNOT BE RECYCLED!! So, WHERE do they put these HIGHLY TOXIC and MASSIVE batteries??? Are they doing wtf they do with 'DEAD WIND TURBINES'??? THESE.........CANNOT be recycled either! So what they do is......DIG A MASSIVE HOLE IN THE SOIL and BURY THEM (Wind Turbines)! Now that HUGE plot of LAND is NO LONGER FIT FOR HUMAN (and animal) USE! One CANNOT grow FOOD/FARM that land......nor can you EVER BUILD A HOME on that TOXIC WASTE DUMP SITE! Throw THOSE FACTS in the video, too, about Wind Turbines!! Include the DESTRUCTION of HUMAN/ANIMAL HEALTH with these Wind Turbines, also!

Of course, there is MUCH MORE to include in a REAL, 'The Truth About Electric Vehicles' video!

But the bottom line IS.......ALL those that are buying ANY 'EV' are a bunch of EVIL, SELFISH FUCKING MORONS who ARE COMPLETELY TRASHING THIS PLANET, AND ALL HUMAN/ANIMAL HEALTH! And may they BURN IN HELL.....WITH their EVIL EVs!!

There NEEDS to be a REAL, 'The Truth About EVs' video done!!

And the real brain melt is that this so-called "climate crisis" is actually a huge pile of bullshit, just like nearly everything else these globalist fraudsters are telling us. Is this how we "own nothing and are happy"? Uh huh. Not to mention all this battery stuff is simply SENDING OUT MORE EMF's... You can ride around in your EMF machine, holding your EMF phone to your EMF'd brain.

Thanks, CTD, I'll share this on my page. Hope you're doing well! xo

Same thing in WA state. In eastern WA, 85% of our energy is already green: hydro, nuclear, natural gas. Yet the leftist governor (and Biden) want to rip out the hydroelectric dams and ban natural gas, and think they are going to run all the electric cars they are mandating on solar and wind.

Exploitation of the vulnerable has been the bane of mankind since time immemorial. England and the US finally got safer conditions for workers, including women and children, as well as adults working in mines, fields and factories -- but this took a long time. There is a balance when considering other countries. Is some opportunity, although risky, better than none? Many of these people are starving poor. Work of any kind, for pay at any level, is an improvement from their point of view. Again, this has been the case for most countries for millennia.

Most important, there is NO human caused climate change crisis at all. Not even a microscopic problem. So-called "Net Zero" benefits will probably kill off a couple of billion people when crops fall far short of needs due to the elimination of "fossil fuels". https://co2coalition.org/

I follow a feed on X that has educated me on so much of what is going on in different countries in Africa. Some countries are rising up & kicking out the evil people that have stolen their resources for years & years. The Congo is suffering so much as there are all sorts of countries in there stealing their cobalt & other resources as apparently is it very rich in resources. People are getting killed over this, women being raped and of course the little children are suffering so much it’s heart rendering. I keep praying for help for these dear people - someone to stop the evil.

No. Those are the private miners. Glencore, like Debeers, don't want any competition. Ever heard of Blood Diamonds? That's Debeers machine gunning the private miners. All whilst they manufacture perfect synthetic diamonds since 1896.
