Robbing Africa’s Riches to Save the Climate (and Power AI)

Considered Angola’s crown jewel by many, Lobito is a colorful port city on the country’s scenic Atlantic coast where a nearly five-kilometer strip of land creates a natural harbor.

Worried about strategic vulnerabilities, Washington is now ramping up efforts to carve out a stake in the #critical #minerals sector.

The DRC is home to the world’s biggest #cobalt reserves, while Zambia is rich in #copper.
