Hi all,
I recently read a Grist article, "Construction begins on controversial lithium mine in Nevada," and am saddened to hear that "construction began this week on an open-pit mine at the largest lithium deposit in the United States, even as tribes and environmental groups continue a years-long effort to block the project."
With that said, I am curious to see if anyone knows if there are current extraction standards/guidelines in place for nations and companies at this time? I'm thinking it would look similar to labels for organic or fair trade?
Thank you,
