from The Drill Down with Peter Schweizer · host Government Accountability Institute
As more US states and European countries commit themselves to pushing electric cars, the nagging questions about mining become more pressing. Electric cars need lots of rare-earth minerals. As demand for EVs grows, so does the need to find, mine, and refine these minerals into service. And this leaves a lot of questions, and a lot of room for America’s adversaries to exploit the demand. On the latest episode of The Drill Down, co-hosts Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers talk sense about the problems this creates.
