MODERATORS
We're talking about oil and gas for energy, not construction. 99% of battery materials can be turned into new batteries. The only reason most haven't been recycled is that they're still in use.
Show me 1 gallon of recycled* fossil fuels and I might change my mind.
*
Fossil fuels that have been burned for energy then recycled back into fuel to be burned again, not vegetable oil diesel or plastic that hasn't been burned.
