Just add the 4.4 billion metric tonnes of crude oil to this and you'd understand how much mining isn't even in the same league as oil extraction. It's also worth remembering that we don't really set fire to the stuff we mine, and it can normally be recycled or reused. Burnt oil, well that's a different story. Great illustration for anyone preaching the "we're going to wreck the planet through mining for EVs"

Great insight for the folk planning electricity interconnectors and energy islands across Europe 👇
Monthly data shows wind and solar complement each other across seasons to provide stable output.
