lithium and the used rare earth elements can be recycled. It's not like they'd evaporate when being used.

This always amazes me about the anti-EV hysteria.

"But they aren't 100% renewable, you have to mine metal" as they jump in their combustion car powered by a fuel that has to be mined only to be burnt up in use.
