Powerful New Lithium Battery Concept

Slashdot reports:
"A company called PolyPlus has developed lithium metal-air batteries that have 10 times the energy density of regular lithium-ion batteries."
You have to wonder though--where will all that lithium come from? And how will we dispose of the depleted batteries? Especially the big ones from worn out cars.
