For one lead batteries are nearly 100% recyclable by weight.
Lithium starting batteries suffer from cold numbing and they don't like under hood heat.
So if you relocated the battery away from the engine and took it inside on cold nights it would work.
Also if your lithium battery gets drained to say 8 or 9 volts it's going to have its capacity severely damaged.
Some chemistries can't charge below freezing with out damage, others can go lower most shouldn't be charged below 20F, I don't think any of them can charge when colder than around +4F with out permanent capacity damage.
