Why not both? Downcycle the old EV batteries for grid storage, then when they reach the end of useful life, recycle them. We need to resurrect the first 2 R’s (Reduce, Reuse) to be able to survive on this planet.

Typical US citizen, butting into a conversation that isn’t even about you. We’re talking about global matters, not your backwater shithole.

No doubt! Even though I live in an area which has snow six months of the year, I’m planning on getting myself a bicycle to get around for basic things like going to work or smaller shopping trips. The less I can use the car, the better.

If we’re outside of the US, spending money on things that aren’t American products, as much as possible.
