Joe Rogan Reacts to the Disturbing Reality of Earth Running out of Minerals

We live in a world of finite resources. If we humans want to continue living on our beautiful little planet, we’re going to have to transition to renewable energies like solar and wind power, sources that are abundant and won’t run out any time soon. Many people think that transitioning to electric vehicles is a positive step towards helping us in this quest. But a lot of the components needed to build the batteries that go into a Tesla or a Prius comes from the ground. Minerals like cobalt and lithium are being mined like crazy. It’s the 21st century gold rush. But there’s a huge human – and environmental cost – to digging this stuff out of the ground. Welcome back to Factnomenal. Today, we’re looking at the disturbing reality of cobalt mining and what it means for sustainable energy. Buy us a coffee to show your support!
