Current estimates suggest that at least 30 energy transition minerals and metals (ETMs) form the material base for the energy transition.

    In Tanzania, several women employees at a court began to fall ill one after the other. What would normally be overlooked as an innocuous seasonal virus proved to be fatal – the women had been infected with HIV.
