I Am Surprised About How Much Power Batteries These DaysCan Hold, and how long they can last and how many times you can recharge them and how robust they are. Very Impressive.
I don't know how much energy and pollution it takes to make a rechargeable battery, but I'm guessing due to how much power they can hold, and how long they can last, these days, I'm guessing Batteries I would consider one of the Few Technology to be "GREEN".
Plus, I think they can be recycled and make into new batteries again!!!!
Many of the other "Green" technology I don't consider "green" due to high energy and pollution to create the "green" product and their short life span due to lack of robustness....not to mention the vast amounts of land require (solar, wind).
I see batteries replacing most combustion engines for "small" work loads..... Lawnmowers, snowblowers, chainsaws, city commute vehicles....etc.
All just my opinion/view/thinking.
