"The world has enough rare earth minerals and other critical raw materials to switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy to produce electricity and limit global warming, according to a new study that counters concerns about the supply of such minerals."

The world has enough rare earth minerals and other critical raw materials to switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy to produce electricity and limit global warming, according to a new study that counters concerns about the supply of such minerals.

The increase in carbon pollution from more mining will be more than offset by the huge reduction in pollution from heavy carbon emitting fossil fuels.

Erin Wayman: Recycling Rare Earth Elements: As demand grows, pulling the metals out of discarded stuff is worth a try

"'Recycling is going to play a very important and central role,' says Ikenna Nlebedim, a materials scientist at Ames National Laboratory in Iowa and the Department of Energy’s Critical Materials Institute. 'That’s not to say we’re going to recycle our way out of the critical materials challenge.' Still, in the rare earth magnets market, for instance, by about 10 years from now, recycling could satisfy as much as a quarter of the demand for rare earths, based on some estimates. 'That’s huge,' he says."

Nikk Ogasa: The Rare Earths: Luminous and Magnetic: What makes these metals so special?

"Rare earths fulfill thousands of different needs — cerium, for instance, is used as a catalyst to refine petroleum, and gadolinium captures neutrons in nuclear reactors. But these elements’ most outstanding capabilities lie in their luminescence and magnetism."

The future has changed: Sweden expedited into NATO. Russia saber rattles Sweden. China’s power decreases. Kids learn Swedish. US increases cooperation with Sweden. Sweden economy booms to 18th century power. A big deal.

WSJ focus on green energy misses the point: it’s computers and cell phones and cars more broadly.

Europe's largest deposit of rare earth metals is located in Sweden.
The catch: "it will be at least 10-15 years before we can actually begin mining and deliver raw materials to the market"
