Read up on cobalt mining, lithium battery disposal and bird butchering wind farms for starters.
OK, first let me say thus "highway that charges your car while you drive", is flat out, the stupidest, most wasteful idea, I've seen in my lifetime" Just imagine the amount of copper wire that would be used, and the line losses that would be encountered trying to adapt a system that barely works on cellphones, let alone charge an electric car while it's moving.
This whole cockamamie idea us rotted in profit, and predicated in people's paranoia about global warming
As for "bird butchering wind farms", while this may be true, keep in mind we almost wiped out the bald eagle with that "miracle insecticide" DDT. Also, how many species we are forcing into extinction via loss of habitat and global warming. Which, (IMO), more than balances out losses from bird/turbine encounters.
So, the only real solution to global warming, is reduction of the human population. But nobody here seems to want to even consider.that.too many people cause more pollution than the earth can handle. All this devotion to "going green", only prolongs the inevitable.
In 1968 The Rolling Stones released a song entitled, "Salt of the Earth". This was only 54 years ago. The line in the song that strikes me the most us,
"let's drink to the two thousand millions" It's scary that we've hit almost quadruple that number in only 5 decades, give or take..
So, for your listening and your reading pleasure, (should you feel so inclined), I give you these:

All of this leads me to wax nostalgic thinking, "if we knew then, what we know now, what a far better place earth would be.
Oh, and BTW,kept our zippers up a bit more.
