  3. #Lateinamerika muss sich vor dem Ansturm auf Mineralien schützen #Bergbau #Rohstoffe
    Die Energiewende hat Mineralien wie #Kupfer, #Lithium und #Nickel zu strategischen Rohstoffen für die Weltwirtschaft gemacht, die nun auf eine kontinuierliche und stabile Versorgung mit diesen Ressourcen angewiesen ist. In Lateinamerika befinden sich einige der weltweit größten Vorkommen an kritischen Mineralien. Auf #Chile und #Peru entfallen etwa 40 % der Kupferreserven.

  4. Answer: "No."

    Most #CriticalMinerals are on #IndigenousLands. Will miners respect #TribalSovereignty?

    by Taylar Dawn Stagner, March 26, 2025

    "#Mining — whether for #FossilFuels or, increasingly, the critical minerals in high demand today — has a long history of perpetuating violence against #IndigenousPeople. Forcibly removing tribal communities to get to natural resources tied to their homelands has been the rule, not the exception, for centuries.

    "Today, more than half of the mineral deposits needed for a global energy transition — including #lithium, #cobalt, #copper, and #nickel to make things like #batteries and #SolarPanels — are found near or beneath Indigenous lands.

    "In 2007, the United Nations adopted a resolution called the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples [#UNDRIP] that included the right to free, prior, and informed consent to the use of their lands, a concept known as #FPIC. This principle protects #IndigenousPeoples from being forcibly relocated, provides suitable avenues for redress of past injustices, and gives tribes and communities the right to consent to — and the right to refuse — #extractive industry projects like #mining.

    "There’s a lot at stake: When followed, FPIC promises a process that gives Indigenous peoples a voice in how their homelands are used, as well as the right to say no to development altogether. And when it’s not, which is the vast majority of the time, #TribalCommunities are further #disenfranchised, facing #violence and #ForcedRelocation as their #sovereignty and rights are ignored.

    "There are an estimated 5,000 tribal communities around the world, encompassing roughly 476 million people across 90 countries, according to the U.N. Different tribes have different opinions on mining, but rarely is their legal right to refuse extraction projects recognized, even under the 2007 declaration.

    "Grist talked with five experts to better understand what free, prior, and informed consent should look like in this new era of mineral extraction. Their responses have been edited for length and clarity."

  5. New method converts old phones and paper industry #waste into #GreenBattery tech

    Scientists have created a sustainable, cost-effective, and highly efficient solution that promotes a #CircularEconomy while supporting the transition to greener #EnergyStorage.

    "A new sustainable method turns discarded #MobilePhoneBatteries and industrial lignin into a powerhouse material for #SodiumIon batteries.

    "It is a stunning example of circular economy innovation. Rather than letting these materials sit in #landfills or go up in smoke, the team from China is giving the waste a high-tech second life.

    "When tested as a sodium-ion battery anode, this composite of #nickel-#cobalt sulfides and #lignin-derived carbon delivered electrochemical results."

  6. @binbash
    Von vernickelten #Ketten (die rosten nicht) rate ich ab, da #Nickel ein hohes #Allergiepotential hat und zu juckenden Hautrötungen führen kann.
    Bei Connex gibt es Ketten mit #Messing- und Black Coating-Beschichtung, aber diese sind dann nicht mehr silbrig glänzend.
    Connex vertreibt übrigends selbst Armbänder, leider aus vernickelten Ketten...

  7. Keine Wärmepumpe: #Kühl- und #Heizelement fünfmal effizienter als Klimaanlage

    Eine #Nickel-#Titan-Legierung #kühlt und #heizt fünfmal sparsamer als Wärmepumpe und Kühlschrank. Zunächst soll sie #EAutos mehr Reichweite verleihen.
