If we have cold fusion there will not be much drilling for fossil fuels. I
think it will be cheaper,

At the current rate of World energy usage, and assuming only 33% conversion
efficiency (i.e. 6 MeV / Li atom), that would last us for 34 million years.
Do you mean that is how

Predicted lithium shortages are leading to novel technologies for recovering
the element, now found mostly in salt lakes in South America.
I am asking the same in my issue of Ego Out today. We can hope that Li
based batteries will be slowly replaced with better sources.
