Why lithium is not the answer to oil

Lithium's journey from the Big Bang to powering electric vehicles highlights unsustainable mining practices. The article argues for a Rights of Nature approach over critical minerals, criticizing oversized EVs and market-driven resource nationalism. True sustainability requires shifting from infinite growth logic to valuing nature's complexity, not just changing fuels.
