I am close to finishing up my environmental engineering degree at UCSD, and I have been dying to build a classic car EV or hybrid.
I have begun researching battery options for EVs. I'm very curious about the long run environmental impacts of things. I was wondering what information people have about recycling or disposal of batteries? I've been reading that a lot of metals and components of lithium batteries end up in landfills. Is there a type of battery that is truly alright for the environment and how?
I love this site
Thanks!
