Towards a low-carbon society: A review of lithium resource availability, challenges and innovations in mining, extraction and recycling, and future perspectives

TL;DR: The demand for lithium has skyrocketed in recent years primarily due to three international treaties (Kyoto Protocol, Paris Agreement and UN Sustainable Development Goals) as mentioned in this paper, all of which are pushing for the integration of more renewable energy and clean storage technologies in the transportation and electric power sectors to curb CO2 emissions and limit the adverse effects of CO2-promoted climate change.
