Description:
A harrowing journey through the past, present, and future of mining, this expertly-researched account ends on a vision for how industry can better serve the needs of humanity.
A race is on to exploit the last bonanzas of gold, silver, and industrial metals left on Earth. These metals are not only essential for all material comfort and need, but for the transition to clean energy: in the coming decades, billions of tons of copper, nickel, silver, and other metals will be required to build electric vehicles, solar and wind installations, and green infrastructure. We need more metals than ever before, yet the qualities and quantities are diminishing, making the extraction process more polluting to land, air and water. And most of these metals will be mined from the global south, where social conflict will only grow, led by Indigenous peoples demanding a greater say in how their wealth is used.
The stakes couldn't be higher: How can we mine the metals we need without replicating the environmental and human rights abuses of the past?
Pitfall is the compelling story of the quest to exploit the metals our civilization needs-and at what cost to local people and their environments. Beginning with the first waves of big, foreign-owned mines in the 1960s, investigative journalist Christopher Pollon shows how transnational companies rose to dominate copper, precious metals, and lithium in Latin America, made inroads into war-torn countries in Africa, and exploited nickel, industrial metals, and rare earth metals across Asia and Oceania.
If we cannot change our course, Pollon argues, we are co

Nice product. High quality microfiber to go with it.
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This product is a nice value for the price. It appears to be a high quality product. As someone just using it recreationally to clean my car every now and then, it seems that it protects very well. It leaves the interior of my car smelling alright and with a nice glossy shine. There is a decent amount in the bottle and its easy to spray on. If you are just using it to wipe dust off the dashboard or something like that, i'm quite sure that the dust will return not too long after you use it. It seems that it protects more for drying out and stains. The microfiber cloths it comes with feel high quality!

Amazing product at a reasonable price
Size: 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff is incredibly versatile! I use it for anything inside the car to clean it. The best part is it doesn’t leave any sort of greasy residue at all and it wipes off extremely clean. You will not be sorry whatsoever if you purchase this. I’d recommend using a brush in areas that need a little bit more work as this suds up very nice and becomes a good cleaning solution!

The best interior product
Size: 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I am a Turo host and I buy this in bulk because it is the best interior cleaner! All purpose and works on every surface I’ve come across. It has a very light smell to it, but it’s pleasant and just smells clean.

Sturdy and secure
It took a few tries to get it positioned exactly as i wanted it but once that was done it hasn't moved. I have a Samsung s25fe phone with a case and it fits just fine. Seems secure. It does shake slightly while driving on bumpy roads but it doesn't move positions and I don't feel like my phone is going to fall. So far it's been great.
