Climate warning

Revival of lithium mining project in conjunction with EU has attracted thousands of protesters once again.

"Our rally today is ecological and has no political ambitions, but the government has accused us of seeking to stage a coup," said popular actor Svetlana Bojkovic.
"We came here today to raise our voice against something that is beyond politics."

    While the world is on fire Serbia is busy reviving its lithium mining project, this should be stopped.

          @jane_wangui Most countries are struggling financially and they are looking for easier ways to get money, what they don't know is that it will cost them dearly later.

          The revival of lithium mining in Serbia highlights the tension between economic development and environmental preservation. While the government pushes forward, thousands protest, emphasizing that the fight is not political but a collective stand to protect their environment. The concerns raised deserve serious consideration, beyond mere accusations of ulterior motives.

            Until when will people protest for the right thing to be done?

              @winnie_nguru People will continue to protest as long as their voices are ignored and environmental concerns are side-lined for short-term gains. It's a powerful reminder that public advocacy remains crucial in pushing for responsible decision-making.

              Consider this when upgrading your next mobile phone- things only need replacing when they no longer work. Recognise, Reconsider, Reuse, Reduce, Recycle - we need less lithium if we use less lithium.

                  @lucinda_ramsay Absolutely, extending the life of our devices can significantly reduce the demand for resources like lithium. By embracing the principles of reuse and recycling, we can lessen the environmental impact and move towards more sustainable consumption habits. No Demand, No Supply!!!

                  This project has more negative ecological impacts, emphasizing the need for balanced approaches that consider both economic benefits and environmental protection.

                    This reflects a troubling disregard for environmental issues, immediate intervention is required here!
