is the best way to prevent more damaging impacts from rising temperatures due to climate change.
The war in Ukraine has also added to concern that the majority of mining and processing for these minerals are controlled by countries that have a tense relationship with the U.S., especially China. Wulf said supply chains are concentrated in areas where it is cheaper to produce these minerals with less oversight, but that concentration also raises concern about the relationship between countries like China and the U.S.
But Wulf added that the amount of land being mined is relatively small in most places and can be done in ways that minimize the impact on the surrounding environment. Conservation advocacy groups have raised concerns about the impact to animal or plant species that could face threats from nearby mining operations and in some cases petitioned to block proposed new mines.

This is where absurdity meets reality. Mineral mining requires enormous amount of energy to extract the rare minerals to produce the batteries for cars and trucks of the future. The carbon footprint will far exceed that of our current traditional energy production & use. HUH

'Experts' If mining is fine, why not fracking What's going to power your mining equipment, lithium? Displacing natural landscapes is green now? Stop pushing this garbage.
