Electric vehicles, rare earth mining and consent

"The increasing global demand for rare earth elements (REE) is driven by clean energy technologies. The electric vehicle in particular, is a strong driving force. The un-ceded sovereign lands of hundreds of First Nations – now colonised and called Australia – hold at least four per cent of the world’s rare earth element reserves."

"There are no strategies in Australia’s critical minerals landscape to support First Nations negotiations. The UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP) requires that free, prior and informed consent is a minimum standard to be applied in all negotiations, including those with First Nations regarding rare earths exploitation."

"Rare earth mining will devastate and change the land forever."

Oops, I do take stands against or pro both sides, as I feel appropriate.

The subject is too important and the conflict helps #Russia, #Iran, and the #Houthis, among others,
and makes matters worse for the #Palestinians, the #Jewish people globally, and the #Ukrainians, in particular.

Moreover, in particular the related #2ndSuezCrisis in the #RedSea is already damaging #GlobalSupplyChains again, exacerbated by the draught crisis in the #PanamaCanal. Prices will rise again!

Episode 3.4 is live! "The Radical Democratizing Power of a Better Way to Make Things, With Sarah Hutton"

Have the inhumanity and environmental destructiveness of global supply chains got you down? What about the rapaciousness of multinational corporations who have twisted globalization into a nightmare for so many people on Earth? Here’s one thing you can do about it: you can support the growing movement known as distributed production. In Episode 3 of Season 4, researcher Sarah Hutton of the Internet of Production Alliance explains what distributed production is, why it’s all about people power, and exactly why it is a completely radical and powerfully democratizing activity that is also better for local jobs, local communities, and the environment. Listen here!
