I think that any pollution problem would also be due to the organic
solvent and other materials rather than the lithium. The main issue at
present seems to be toxic gas emission from the burning batteries.
Perhaps dousing the fire with sea water would give the lesser of two
pollution evils, but until tested we won't know.

Lithium is present in seawater with a fairly high concentration.
Doubling this for thousands of cubic metres requires a lot of lithium.
The biological impact of this is probably minimal.
Heavy metals is more of a concern.
