Climate Crisis and Mining in the Global South

Three organizations from the Global South will provide this webinar to discuss the consequences of “clean energy” production on mining countries in the Global South. The extraction and processing of minerals for the production of solar panels, air generators, batteries and new technologies cause important social and environmental impacts, often making the concept of “clean energy” a contradiction in terms. We must ask ourselves: clean for whom?
