I mean, it’s about as sustainable as you can get on earth I would imagine, there’s a huge amount of lithium in seawater. It would take an insanely long time to deplete the 180000000000 tons of lithium in sea water.

They’re my favourite podcast. I support them heavily on Patreon. So much solid content.

I feel like it could also lead into the expanse, early Mars…
