    Cadmium, lithium and nickel mining are not cheaper than oil extraction and are more harmful to the environment.

    You didn't mention mining, you mentioned making alternate energy sources cheaper than fossil fuels. Considering the topic of the thread, I also didn't connect that you might of meant the environmental costs.

    Okay, but I was pointing out how alternate energy choices are already cheaper than fossil fuels? Which is a fact...

    If you take into account harvesting and application, they are not. They are cheaper(in certain countries) on the consumer end. But that's rare.
