Hi. I'm sharing a pre-print by @anavaldi.bsky.social and me that is gaining traction @ssrn.bsky.social. Critical minerals policies are generating pressures to create 'technological peripheries' in both the South and North. We look at Chile and Spain. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

AI is using more energy and water than ever. Will it ever be sustainable – or could it be the final nail in our climate coffin?
