    Infrastructure investment for battery recycling absolutely should be a part of the retooling, but the impact of batteries slowly leeching into the soil is nowhere near the ongoing harm caused by fossil fuels right now.

    Your worry is a valid one, but it is vastly out of proportion when put next to the very real damage already happening. And it can be mitigated.
