Omschrijving

Electric vehicles promise a greener future, but at what cost? The Hidden Price uncovers the untold story of the metals—lithium, cobalt, nickel, and more—that power EV batteries. From the water-starved deserts of Chile to the cobalt mines of the Congo, where children toil in hazardous conditions, this gripping exposé reveals the environmental devastation, human exploitation, and global inequalities behind the EV boom. Through vivid stories, rigorous research, and a global lens, Simon Davidson explores the paradox of clean energy's dirty secret. Yet hope emerges in innovative recycling, ethical sourcing, and sustainable technologies. A must-read for anyone invested in a truly sustainable future, this book challenges us to confront the hidden costs of progress and demand a better way forward.
