Progress is powering forward with cheap, clean solar energy while fossil-fuel greed keeps families paying more and the planet burning—learn why solar wins on cost, health, and climate.
I have long been interested in solar, but I'm wondering where batteries come into play. You see, I drive an all electric Nissan Leaf and was feeling good about it until someone made a comment about lithium mining. I have since become aware of the fact that lithium mining---which plays into many tech products, including electric car batteries---very often happens on land that belongs to, or land that affects the lives of, indigenous people. That's just not right.
Sunlight is shining on everyone.
