AskPippa🇨🇦<p>Lithium is one of the big metals in demand because of its use in batteries. But, there is constant improvement with alternatives.<br>An example is sodium batteries which show promise for several applications where they could be used instead of lithium (and potentially reduce the demand for lithium).
