Yeah, fuck that lake!
Environmentalists: “We really need to address climate change”
Me, an environmentalist: “let’s mine like crazy for the materials we’re sure to need”
Environmentalists: “no, not like that!”
Honestly, yes. Look that lake up and you'll see how worthless it is for anything lake-y.
Also though, let's not pretend we wouldn't strip mine Lake Tahoe if there was unobtainium under it.
It's a manmade lake, for what it's worth.
