Hari Tulsidas<p>100,000 people including children in a mine with zero machinery. Sheer human power, paid at few dollars per day. 15,000 tunnels that collapse all the time. Children covered with sulphur dust from the nearby processing plant. This is how cobalt is mined in DRC. This cobalt, born in misery, powers all the smartphones, electric vehicles and other devices. The world refuses to see the truth. <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/CobaltMining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CobaltMining</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/DRC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DRC</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/HumanMisery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanMisery</span></a></p>
