Developed world's "green transition" is running by the blood of "undeveloped" communities.
"All three mines continue to face allegations from communities around them and civil society organizations (CSOs) of serious human and environmental rights violations.
The report highlights the urgent need to identify, mitigate, and address human rights and environmental risks and impacts in transition minerals supply chains in #Indonesia and the #Philippines, both of which dominate the global market for nickel, cobalt, and other transition minerals critical to the global #energy transition towards #renewables."
"The report shows that across the different stages of #Asia ’s transition minerals supply chains – upstream (extraction/mining), midstream (processing and refining the minerals), and downstream (battery manufacturing and sales) – there are distinct #humanrights and environmental impacts, with the most serious harms usually occurring in and around mining sites or the ‘upstream’ stage. There are also serious impacts on the ground, especially on #Indigenous communities, in the minerals smelting and processing stage, known as the ‘midstream’, usually because of high levels of #pollution and poor environmental safeguards.
