#EVs require more than 800 lbs of copper. There are over 3.2M #EVs on American roads today and that number will continue to grow. Ensuring that we have the copper to meet the demand will require new mines to be approved. #copperiscritical bit.ly/3ZRFm7N

The transition to renewable energy is happening faster than expected. A strong domestic supply of copper is a key element to meet our decarbonization goals in a socially responsible way. cnb.cx/3XLL1dP #copperiscritical
