Join our host and journalist Robin Stickley as she digs into some fascinating conversations about what, how, and Why We Mine. Think about it - practically everything around you that isn’t born or grown is mined. The toothpaste you brush with every morning, the vehicle you use to get around, even the screen you’re reading this on right now contain minerals extracted from the earth. As the climate warms and we race for sustainable solutions, we know you’re asking questions: How can mining help us hit our emissions targets by 2050? How do we continue to build an inclusive workforce and prosperous communities? How will we sustainably mine enough copper for the all the electric cars? Robin explores the answers and takes a closer look at Canada’s innovative mining technologies and community-driven approaches to ensure a sustainable future for everyone.If you want to understand more about “Why We Mine,” this podcast by Teck Resources is for you.
