Q All right. We're, we're done being purely bullish. Let's talk about hold the places where we think a technology is hyped just right. Uh, we'll go, we'll switch the order. Steven, you, you go first. What's your hold?
A Well, this feeds it directly into your comments on lithium ion batteries and, you know, what other storage technologies are going to win out. And I am a hold on battery recycling. We have for many years been focused on battery recycling. I mean, uh, recycling solar panels, um, uh, the components of wind turbines and, uh, and batteries. And there are a couple different ways that we recycle batteries. There's pyrometallurgy. There's actually burning them and taking the, the, um, taking the residue after that burning process. And there's hydrometallurgy, um, using chemistry to reclaim materials after batteries are shredded. And these processes have historically been fairly expensive and time consuming and You don't capture all the material inside the batteries, but there are a ton of new companies, uh, some, many American companies actually that are Deploying new processes, uh, borrowing from some of these existing processes, uh, to reclaim more materials inside lithium ion batteries. And so there have been, um, you know, there's, there's been hundreds of millions of dollars raised by these companies in the last couple of years. And so I think that the technologies that they're playing with are interesting on their own. And we have seen, you know, some veterans coming out of Tesla, who are starting, founding a couple of these companies. Um, but beyond the technology itself, I thin…
