First Company to Mine Plastics Debuts on Toronto Stock Exchange

Despite more people in the world adopting more sustainable ways of living, it is still not enough, it seems, given that less than 9% of plastic waste globally is recycled. Additionally, in spite of efforts by municipalities and governments to offer monetary incentives, the amount of plastics that aren’t recyclable grows by a considerable fraction annually and finds its way into our food, seas and even our bodies. It seems straightforward, then, to rid ourselves and the world of plastic altogether, does it not? However, this discussion is much larger than us, as we’d first need to find a way…

Opposition to Mining in the U.S. May Affect Energy Transition

As more countries around the world adopt the use of electric vehicles and that of sustainable energies, the disconnect between the crucial need for various minerals required for the batteries of electric cars as well as the advancement of wind and solar power, and the processes used in mining to extract said minerals, grows larger. This is mainly because these processes negatively impact the environment, which may likely become a public bone of contention.

US Economic Recovery Pushes Price of Aluminum Higher

The premiums that U.S. purchasers of aluminum have to pay for the lightweight metal to be shipped to the United States hit a record high last week. The numbers surpassed the level reached more than five years ago when trading houses and banks began to participate in warehouse merry-go-round deals in order to collect higher rents.

Gold Supplies Fail to Keep Pace with Demand

Many economies and industries were affected by the onset of the coronavirus pandemic and the spread of this disease, which led to shutdowns of facilities and countrywide lockdowns in various regions in the world.
