[5/5] Pour Imran Shaikh, Oman voit cette résolution comme une étape. Une version renforcée pourrait être proposée à l’UNEA-8 en 2027. L’épisode révèle les tensions géographiques entre souveraineté minière, gouvernance globale et justice environnementale. #geography #extractivism #justice

Minerals treaty proposed by Colombia & Oman gets pushback at UN meeting A proposed Colombia–Oman minerals treaty met resistance at UNEA-7, highlighting divisions over binding global standards for mining impacts.

We need global binding rules for energy-transition mineral extraction As the energy transition gets underway, we need a new set of rules for mineral extraction to protect nature and human rights

Amid a rush for minerals needed for the #energytransition, voluntary safeguards and corporate goodwill are insufficient to protect nature and #humanrights”

[4/8] La pression découle d’un paradoxe. La transition énergétique, censée réduire les émissions, accroît la demande en minerais critiques comme le lithium, le nickel ou le cuivre. Le Brésil détient la 2e réserve mondiale de terres rares, après la Chine. #geography #extractivism #Amazon #Brazil

Critical minerals drive legalization of mining on Amazon Indigenous lands Lawmakers in Brazil can scrap a 30-year-old protection to meet global demand for gold and other minerals.
