Bryan Johnson,
a 48 year old American entrepreneur,
has made headlines for his outlandish anti-ageing techniques
-- spending millions of dollars in a bid to extend his life
and reduce his biological age to that of an 18-year-old.
Johnson refers to his Benjamin Button-esque ways as
‘Project Blueprint’,
meticulously taking 54 supplements a day,
eating every meal between 6am and 11.30am,
and following a strict exercise regimen.

Le vélo est le plus durable des moyens de transport, mais il devient de plus en plus néfaste à l’environnement. Une quantité croissante d’énergie et de matériaux est requise pour sa fabrication tandis que sa durée de vie baisse.

The US supreme court struck down a restrictive gun law in the state of Hawaii

At issue was a 2023 state law that barred carrying a firearm on private property without the owner’s approval
and created a list of more than a dozen “sensitive places” where guns cannot be carried,
such as beaches and restaurants that serve alcohol.

Just did very approximate calculations; with 10g of lithium per drone*, and assuming the Russian and Ukrainian drone efforts consume 5m units a year**, that'd be ~50 tons of lithium deposited into the environment per year, mostly within, let's say, 50km of the grey zone***. It's only about $20,000 / ton****, which means $1m of metal*****.
So to answer my own silly question: no, it won't be economically viable to scalp the top few inches of topsoil and extract the lithium from it.
* Roughly right for quadcopters / small FPV; larger and longer range ones will have more, so this is a bottom bound. (OTOH longer range UAVs will tend to use ICE kerosene rather than batteries
** Changing all the time as both sides try expanding production as fast as they can manage. Ua are scaling much faster at time of writing
*** Handwaving. Contact zone's hardly moved since early 2023; OTOH Ua are pushing range limits on small battery-powered form factor, saw a 60km claim for the Logistics Lockdown operation the other day
**** There was a big spike to the $70-8000 range in 2022; median price is closer to $10k than $20k
***** (IDK the chemistry but presumably it's in an exciting range of different compounds, depending on how many bits the battery was blown into, how hot / pressured the blast wave was a few tens of mm from the boom, what other stuff was in the vicinity that the lithium would combine with, etc etc.

Met een pakket orders ter waarde van 1,9 miljard euro is Nederland een van de belangrijkste klanten van de Israëlische wapenindustrie geworden. De helft daarvan is besteld na de start van het Israëlische offensief in Gaza in oktober 2023. De genocide heeft daar kortom geen enkele rem op gezet.'
