The world has yet to embrace the FACT that we cannot have a zero emissions or carbon neutral world without the mining industry. We will need mining to provide the minerals that we use to transport and store clean energy. FULL STOP. PERIOD. The mining industry will need to be supported by governments who are foward thinking and environmentally focused. Governments that now claim to be environmentally forward thinking but have policies that undermine the mining industry have not yet made the correlation between development and the clean energy race. It's only a matter of time before the world and its politicians have to catch up and realize the the mining industry must be a key stakeholder at the table to save the planet.
