In Nevada's Thacker Pass, Indigenous tribes are battling powerful entities over a massive lithium mine by Lithium Americas. Backed by the Biden administration and General Motors, this project, vital for electric vehicles, exposes the dark side of the "green energy" transition, prioritizing profit over sacred land and local communities.

The documentary, "Thacker Pass - Mining the Sacred," by award-winning journalist Brandi Morin and filmmaker Geordie Day, chronicles the Indigenous resisters putting their freedom on the line. It was co-produced by Ricochet Media, IndigiNews, and The Real News Network.

Plastic pollution presents a global challenge. A new non-catalytic pyrolysis technology, grounded in thermodynamics and quantum mechanics, offers an innovative solution. This process transforms plastic waste into powerful fuels, fundamentally shifting our approach to plastic, waste, and energy.

The underlying principle is that all plastic can be repurposed by converting matter and energy. Driven by a passion for social impact, Andoni leads Petgas, a Mexican startup. Petgas is developing this technology and market to convert plastic waste into clean, potent fuels.

This concept was presented at an independently organized TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.
