Australian mining magnate and climate campaigner Andrew Forrest calls for fossil fuel bosses' 'heads on spikes' in extraordinary outburst on sidelines of UN COP28 climate conference
The Australian mining magnate and climate campaigner lashes out at oil and gas supremos he says are "selfish beyond belief".
This is the energy we need to turn this around.

A mining magnate and climate campaigner at the same time?

It's possible; while shifting off fossil fuels cuts the overall need for mining sharply, it does still involve the use of rare earths, lithium, copper, and other metals
19Plus, people still need everything from kitchenware to trains in a net zero society, which means more metal. While it can be recycled, we need a lot more to get to a point where everyone has the same standerd of living, even before mentioning stone, gravel, clay, etc. Outside of coal and oil producing ingredients like cobalt, i’d imagine that overall mining demand would be rather steady even if a lot of carbon neutral technologies didn’t require more metal inputs.
