The Democratic Republic of Congo is a global leader in cobalt production and accounts for over 50% of the world’s cobalt reserves.
Cobalt is used in electric vehicle batteries. Beyond the monumental waste from cobalt EV batteries that no longer function, what about the cost to human lives?
Children routinely work in cobalt mines under hazardous conditions. UN agencies estimate that more than 40,000 children are working in cobalt mines in the southern Katanga province, with inadequate safety equipment and for very little money. These mines are often full of toxic metals and in some cases, mildly radioactive. Additionally, the prostitution of women and young girls is pervasive near mines. So those who support the use/production of electric vehicles are also enabling and encouraging enslavement, sex trafficking and human misery.
Where’s the outrage, lefties? Or are these human beings worth sacrificing to combat the phony crisis of “climate change” – which is just another attempt to control human behavior?
Bottom line, God controls the climate – not humans. But that’s impossible for those on the godless left to grasp.
Why is nobody talking about this? https://t.co/39rcu88sTa
