.....as part of a general move to reduce our impact, switching to an EV will certainly be a positive step in comparison to continuing to use diesel. 

What about the child Mica miners (as a single example there are many more) in places like Madagascar, do they not figure in the pursuit of your EV revolution ?

 As I have said before EV is the Betamax of personal transportation.

Not a particularly useful analogy.  Betamax was technically superior in almost every way to VHS and really only failed because of the vagaries of the video rental market.
I get that you're not a fan of EVs but let's debate the issue sensibly.

So with your sensible hat on you focused on the analogy rather than the point of my argument.  That EV vehicles use a heck of a lot of rare minerals and in many case recover these minerals in an exploitative way.

So that drivers can feel good about the amount of CO2 they are not producing, so hypocritical.
