You’ve probably heard that we need to mine near the Boundary Waters in order to get the metals to build a green economy. “If we want solar power and electric cars, we must mine!”

Don’t believe it.

Join us on Wednesday, July 14 for a Lunch with the Friends program where we will look at the claims made by pro-sulfide mining allies and weigh them against the facts so that you can make a more informed decision.

Some of the questions that we’ll explore are: Is the United States using more copper? Is there a shortage of copper in the world? How much metal would Twin Metals and PolyMet actually produce? What about metal recycling?
