It's not like the US is going around and trying to make some sort of loophole for itself, it's just that it's extraordinarily difficult for Congress to ratify anything that they don't see as urgent.

I don’t know if it actually had anything to do with this or not, but at least I can see more value now in the time spent doing it.

      We NEED to stop strip mining and blasting pollutants into the air from the fossil fuel industry. To do that it looks like we need to mine new resources to transition to build the infrastructure for renewables, but we should have a plan in place for recycling those resources, better mining strategies to minimize disruption and plan for restoration as well.

      Lithium doesn't have to be consumed but could be recycled, it's byproduct for use also doesn't have known crisis causing properties (i.e. Green house effect). HVDC lines are an exciting alt to grid scale spreading of renewable production so hopefully that limits the need for grid batteries. There is also work for passive energy systems (think trams for EV trucks) to reduce the size of battery needed for long haul deliveries. Some are looking into induction charging for person EVs as well.

    It’s also significant as this would make the US larger than China on a “fair” basis. Before, the UN and CIA world fact books both included only the US coastal territorial waters when comparing sizes and not China’s so that the US would be bigger, but with the new extensions, even if China’s territorial waters would be included in a fair comparison, it would mean that the US would have more area in that respect, however still far less actual land area. I still think the extensions are pure bragging rights

      failing to get international recognition reduces the legitimacy of a claim, because you can't call upon international changes to other agreements for failing to adhere to it. You have to use enforcement only capable within your borders or military force. One low risk low reward, the other very very high risk (see Russia).
