Audio: Our hunger for raw materials - globally unjust
Updated: Dec 16, 2022
A Podcast from Christoph Burgmer and Peter Kreysler on behalf of INKOTA
The European Union has committed itself to becoming climate-neutral by 2050 and thus to counteracting climate change. But what is the real benefit of such an "energy turnaround" if it is not accompanied by a "raw materials turnaround"? Nothing! Why do we need a raw material turnaround at all and how can it succeed? In a two-part podcast series, we look for answers for the non-governmental organization INKOTA. For feasible alternatives. In the first part, we go on a search for clues in some countries of the Global South. After all, this is where most of the raw materials we need are mined.
