Zero-Emission Mining Technologies are Here

Want to restore the planets ecosystems and see your impact in monthly videos? The first 200 people to join Planet Wild with my code will get the first month for free at If you want to get to know them better first check out their latest video: Restoring an ancient forest by doing the opposite of tree planting In this video were going to get serious about mining for the energy transition. Were going to find out where emissions in mining come from what solutions are available and check in on progress from the industry towards that goal. The general vibe is that we can make mining less harmful to the environment it can be zero emissions companies are already making moves in that direction and were going to find out about the technologies theyre using to achieve that. But the serious part is: mining doesnt come without a local environmental cost. It cant. This is one of those tricky tradeoff situations where we have to do something a little bit bad to prevent something very bad from happening.
