Lithium-ion batteries are responsible for thousands of
fires a year causing extensive damage to waste facilities,
trucks and homes across the nation.

Australia produces about 3,300 tonnes of lithium-ion
battery waste each year, which has caused more than
10,000 fires annually in waste management facilities
and trucks alone.

The alarming figures have prompted environment ministers
across the country to take urgent action to prevent
fires from having devastating consequences on lives
and property.

. . .

THOUSANDS of fires, in Oz alone !!!

Somebody better come up with a fair lithium
alternative FAST FAST FAST ! Almost every
home/biz has a bunch of these sleeper fire-
bombs.

But then what would all the Chinese SLAVES
do ??? The GreenWokies will have to come
up with SOMETHING ... :-)

Tire fire
... a fire involving approximately 10 million tires began which still
smouldered 15 years later. ... multiple fires and finally resulted in a
tire fire on August 13.

The Waste Tire Problem
BURNING. Approximately half of all waste tires are burned. Over 150
MILLION tires are burned every year. To make that number less alarming,
burning tires is often reported as Tire Derived Fuel or TDF.

This is a constant problem in recycling centers where they
stockpile hundreds even thousands of batteries.

It used to be worse, if that matters. One of the Samsung
devices was banned from airliners, it caught on fire so
often.

The WORST problem, reported here, isn't fires at
some waste facility way off the south end of town
but smack inside peoples HOMES.

It's not only in Oz either ...
