Sarah Wilson Instagram – We are coming to the end of our Collapse Series, with only two eps to go. I hope you enjoy this deep dive into the complexities of the “green” energy transition and climate security issues with Olivia Lazard.
Olivia Lazard (peace mediator, rare minerals expert) reveals the hidden flaws in the “green” energy transition that many assume will solve the climate crisis. As a fellow at Carnegie Europe and a global security advisor, Olivia explains how the mining and extraction of rare earth metals like lithium, graphite, and cobalt—crucial for the green economy—are limited, ecologically damaging, and destabilizing the world in ways few comprehend.
In this conversation, we explore climate security issues, debunk the “AI and innovation will save us!” mindset, and discuss the realities of geo-engineering. Despite the “heady” topics, Olivia brings in “heart” considerations that resonate deeply. We end by questioning whether we have “hope.”
