'A remarkably hopeful and useful book...The climate crisis leaves
us no choice but to build a new world and as Sanderson makes clear,
we are capable of making it a better one than the dirty and
dangerous planet we’ve come to take for granted.' Bill
McKibben, Observer book of the week We depend on a handful of
metals and rare earths to power our phones and computers.
Increasingly, we rely on them to power our cars and our homes.
Whoever controls these finite commodities will become rich beyond
imagining. Sanderson journeys to meet the characters, companies,
and nations scrambling for the new resources, linking remote mines
in the Congo and Chile’s Atacama Desert to giant Chinese battery
factories, shadowy commodity traders, secretive
billionaires, a new generation of scientists attempting to
solve the dilemma of a ‘greener’ world.
