My bet is that the manufacture of such a battery along with its disposal would have a lot more negative impact on the environment that a lump of coal, especially in the US were we scrub our smoke stakes at coal fired plants.
True Bear, very true. First Eunice Foote demonstrated the heat-trapping properties of carbon dioxide at a scientific conference in 1856, then after finding out that in 1862, John Tyndall discovered that certain gases (water and carbon dioxide) help trap heat from escaping the atmosphere. Later, in 1895, Swedish Chemist Svante Arrhenius observed the carbon-dioxide traps heat best… Santa went to Sweden first to interview the scientist then between that time and 1904 he moved to the S. Pole forth with by then. (The numbers were starting to rise in small increments, but the fact that they are a rising trend was of concern. So much so he moved to Antarctica and uses only either carbon neutral or absorbing technology the LIGHT ELVES (Svartálfar) created.)
Foote’s results were not definitive with too many uncontrolled factors in the experiment. She could not have anticipated that atmospheric CO2 levels would rise from 290 parts per million at the time to 400ppm, prompting a global crisis. Santa with his long life could being able to create and use scientific instruments to analyze CO2 in the atmosphere. The “carbonic acid” as they once called it.
Still, her hypothesis was prescient and a version of her experiment is used to teach high school children today.

The guy lives at the North Pole. I’m sure he’s very concerned about climate change.
