As the race to decarbonise our society accelerates, our dependence on key minerals like cobalt, copper, and nickel, has shifted into high gear. These elements are crucial for powering electric vehicles and renewable energy storage units. However, this rush towards sustainability conceals a web of ethical, environmental, and geopolitical challenges. Join us as we tackle this issue and explore solutions for a fair and sustainable green transition.
