Batteries, Fires, and ESG - Oh My!

Streamed on:

In the news lately has been a plethora of stories about electric vehicles catching fire, with some even spontaneously combusting. It has become a running joke on the Internet in the last few months. Now, joining flaming Telsas, we have E-bikes and E-scooters that are catching fire and burning down buildings. The culprit is Lithium batteries. And because a lithium fire is impossible to put out, as water only makes Lithium burn faster, such fires are almost impossible for firefighters to deal with. Is this worth the virtue signaling to own a "planet saving" vehicle?

And speaking of virtue signaling, you'll never guess what we found out about ESG "environmental, social and governance" scores and what business is doing (or not doing) with it.

Join Host Anthony Watts, along with our panel of experts Sterling Burnett and Linnea Lueken as we explore these burning questions in CCR #54, Friday March 10th, at 1PM EST/10AM PST.
