A band of billionaires, including Jeff Bezos, Michael Bloomberg and Bill Gates, among others, is betting that below the surface of the hills and valleys on Greenland’s Disko Island and Nuussuaq Peninsula there are enough critical minerals to power hundreds of millions of electric vehicles.
hmm. not sure how big of a fan i am of this (even though it’s a logical conclusion of being able to actually access the resources possibly found here). just seems… weird? for lack of better wording to go “oh, well climate change sucks but heyyyy cool resources we’re getting as a benefit of letting it continue”
Basically a direct analogue of the billionaires wanting to let the meteor fall for the minerals in Don’t Look Up.
I don’t get it, isn’t this always happening and all over the world?
