Africa is positioning itself as a major global player in Critical Energy Transition Mineral (CETM) supply chains, holding 30% of the world’s known reserves.
In our latest report, we provide concrete examples of how environmental, social, and economic practices can be part of a just transition that balances production on the continent with responsible mineral supply chain management. #ClimateWeekNYC

Researchers at @cleeberkeley & the Corporate Electric Vehicle Alliance from @CeresNews have 3 recommendations for electric vehicle fleet buyers who have the power to shift EV supply chains:
1⃣Join @IRMA (we couldn’t agree more!)
2⃣Advocate for domestic mining reform that expands mining only as much as necessary
3⃣Advocate for federal policy to standardize EV battery labeling and traceability through battery passports

First audit released of South American lithium mine by
@IRMA_mining, mine audit scheme that has
@hrw on its board.
Audits are an imperfect tool, but IRMA's audit standard is the most comprehensive available in the mining sector.
