Lots of R&D in the battery tech sector ongoing; what you say is true currently but absolutely will not be the case forever.

And if we're talking about environmental impact, Li mining vs. fossil fuels is a very silly argument considering the ongoing climate change trends. Best to keep our planet habitable in the short term and worry about lithium reserves and recycling down the road. Just one more can to kick.

There's a lot of flash assumptions here.

The funitil isn't a gondola. It actually functions more like a tram. And I don't think they make funitil anymore. They are being replaced by 3s lifts which are pretty similar. I do think that'd be a good option for replacing the tram. But I don't think a traditional gondola is a good idea personally.

Also Cannon is actually just as windy as Palisades if not more. You know how Mount Washington had the highest wind speed record, cannon actually had the 2nd spot. Also keep in mind the cannons tram goes to the summit and the Gold Coast only goes halfway up.

There are east coast gondolas that make sense. Stratton, K1, starship, stowe just to name a few.

Well if you are handy and generally comfortable with doing electrical work it's actually pretty simple. The hardest part is actually getting the solar panels mounted, everybody situation is different if they go on your roof that's where it gets complicated. The other issue is if you're going to be tying it in to your electrical service. That gets more complicated. Doing a battery backup or off-grid setup is very easy, the equipment has gotten a lot cheaper in the last few years.

Cool so you have an opinion on a specific issue that isn't based in the facts of the specific topic. You also won't do any research because it might challenge your opinion that, by your own admission, isn't rooted in specific facts.

You are basically just humble bragging about putting effort into remaining ignorant and don't even seem to realize it.
