Opportunity and Risk: Mining and the Green Energy Transition [[link removed]]
Wednesday, June 1 // 3:30–5:00 p.m. (ET)

The shift from fossil fuels to other minerals comes with environmental, social, and governance tradeoffs. For developing countries, in particular, there is both opportunity and risk, according to a recent report [[link removed]] from the U.S. Agency for International Development.
Join the Wilson Center's Environmental Change and Security Program for a discussion of how the projected increase in mineral demand could influence markets, supply chains, and geopolitical competition, shaping the future of global peace and security.
