A massive fire broke out at a French industrial site used for recycling hybrid and electric car batteries on Saturday, sending thick clouds of smoke into the air.
The town of Viviez in the department of Aveyron in Southern France was shrouded by black clouds of smoke after a fire broke out at a warehouse used to hold hybrid and electric car lithium batteries. Overall, the site held an estimated 900 tonnes of lithium batteries, however, officials claimed that the cause of the fire has still not been determined, Le Figaro reports.

“Lithium oxide forms along with small amounts of lithium peroxide when lithium metal is burned in the air at and combines with oxygen at temperatures above 100 °C:[3]”
Fire sounds like a good way to recycle Lithium back to a refinable compound.
Enviro-wackos don’t care about toxic batteries or the children poisoned mining the metals for them.
And windmill blades tumbling down...besides slicing and dicing our feathered friends.
Think of line in Green Acres theme.
“Fresh Air”
All that black smoke will help counteract global warming - yet another EV feature we hadn’t counted on!
An English ton in 20 Hundredweight (CWT) or 2240 pounds...
112 pounds in a CWT......
I wonder how much pollution that fire has added to the atmosphere…..pollution that wouldn’t have happened if not the whole electric car fiasco.
Good thing I went to a British school so I can interpret when needed...

New York is where Id rather stay
Darling I love you but give me 5th Avenue...

The smoke didn’t present a danger?
LOL! Yeah, Imperial measure is something else.
I did read the article- officials say no danger to the environment, eh? It’s been burning for days….riiiiiiight.
It is all about the religion of Climate Change. Reason and logic and safety are tossed out the window... because of the completely irrational belief WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!
Burning to the Center of the Earth
Should not surprise anyone, it happens everyday in China. But the dummies pushing EVs don’t want us to know how dangerous those batteries are.
If any fireman complains the environmentalists will beat them up so bad they won’t complain any more...
Lol.
I think it was the batteries.
Yes, because WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!
They will wait until this story fades into nothing, then they’ll tell the truth that it was indeed the batteries. Because the agenda always wins.
