Environment America’s Post

The deep ocean is one of most remote places on Earth, an alien and amazing place science is only beginning to discover. And we could destroy vast swaths of it, all for metals we throw in the trash every day. In my new report with Nathan Proctor, Tony Dutzik and James Horrox, we explore what harms would come from seabed mining--and why we don't need it for our transition to a renewable energy future. Because the reality is, deep sea mining is not the solution: unless we change how we use these "critical minerals," we will always need to find a new wilderness to plunder. Instead, let's invest in the real solution--reducing, repairing, reusing, recycling, and reimaging devices that use critical minerals--and reject efforts to make ever more extraction seem like the way to a sustainable future.

Australia's mining sector has long relied on a 'learning by doing' strategy, but is it costing us our environment? This insightful piece authored by Griffith University’s Professor Matthew Currell and Flinders University’s Professor Adrian Werner, explores the environmental impacts of our large-scale mining operations and questions the effectiveness of our current approach. #Mining #Environment #Sustainability #EnvironmentalEngineering #GriffithUniveristy @Griffith Sciences https://lnkd.in/dAhsnJng

Great to discuss geology with engaged and knowledgeable engineering students!!We will be hosting Diba J and colleagues on site soon enough for a closer look at our drilling and core shed to learn a bit more about “the other side” of the industry. #rmit #geology #engineering #afghanistantowinthecricketworldcup

Despite the political chess game, Alaska continues to stand strong, exemplifying resilience and sustainability in our mining practices. As the world watches, we remain committed to showcasing how mineral extraction can be done responsibly, underpinning our country’s mineral independence at a crucial time. Let's keep pushing forward, proving that our great state not only meets but sets global standards for responsible resource management. Here's to Alaska, a true leader in sustainable development and an unwavering pillar in America's energy strategy! #AlaskaStrong #SustainableMining #MineralIndependence #EnergySecurity

I've made the most profit from supporting and buying resource stocks in down markets like we are in now that are very long in the tooth. It's definitely not for the faint of heart but if you see companies that actually have some strong drill results but are in a weak market, watch for the opportunities to buy them. The funds that we've earned from doing this have supported our staff and their families, some charities related to supporting local kids, and they have gone into supporting new entrepreneurial ventures started by smart people.

Lock the Gate In shocking, though unfortunately not surprising news, a new report released today* has revealed that large areas of #koala #habitat are located directly on mining leases for some of the largest coal mine expansion proposals in Queensland. Using state-of-the-art satellite mapping technology combined with government data, the CQUniversity study shows how the mining lease areas for 12 planned coal projects in Central Queensland overlap with habitat critical for koalas’ survival. It’s the first time a report has assessed the cumulative impact of coal mining on endangered koalas in Central Queensland - which make up one-fifth of the state’s koalas. Coal and gas expansions threaten to send koalas over the precipice by fueling climate change and destroying vital habitats. But we don’t want to imagine an Australia without koalas, so we’re fighting back! Lock the Gate is working on the front line of the coal and gas expansion across Queensland and NSW. Colin, will you donate to our Koala Protection Fund to help save koalas from extinction?
