Their results suggest that the Marcellus Shale "has the capacity to provide significant lithium yields for the foreseeable future" – as long as fracking continues, that is.
If scientists can extract even a conservative amount of lithium from fracking wastewater in the state, they calculate it could meet more than 30 percent of the current US demand.
That sounds really promising, but the potential environmental impact of extracting lithium from fracking wastewater is as yet unexplored, and the wastewater only exists if fracking activity continues.
sorry we gotta go green by continuing to extract natural gas so we can get lithium for batteries
i don't make the rules
So this means Trump wins the election because the US can't help but do regime change whenever lithium is found.
Biden will win after some random fishermen btfo the cia.
Time to bring freedom to Pennsylvania. Senator Fetterman, your people yearn for liberation!
It seems like Pennsylvania's final fate is as a massive pit devoid of any resource.
Incoming barrage of media stories about human rights violations in the autocratic dictatorship of Pennsylvaniastan under the depraved rule of Senator Fettaffi
hey maybe somebody will come up with a non-fracking way to get at this stuff.
It's fracking or child slaves, sorry I don't make the rules.
China will probably mainstream non lithium batteries right as America starts building this stuff. But don't worry, the US will put 100% tariffs on them.
for 99% tariff-hitler.
