You need a lot less lithium for a battery that will last 20 years than you need per day gas wise.

Um. This is not a lithium mine. Lithium veins or more commonly found spodumene (for lithium) mines are nothing like this. 10 seconds of searching, this is BHPs escondida. Its a copper mine.

Replace cars with pretty much all electronics/anything using electricity and lithium with copper and you've got an even stronger message.
Not quiet sure where we would be if we never had copper. Of course we have better materials that replace a lot of copper now but it's importance is non negotiable.
