The biggest unsolved part of EV IMO is the fact that mining lithium destroys the environment, and IIRC uses a fair bit of child labor. Looking at it from that perspective it’s not yet a green technology.

Lithium mining is pretty well industrialized I think.

Cobalt mining has problems with child labor.
