I hope I have pronounced his name properly. He was talking about the blood copper, the blood lithium and the cobalt. He is absolutely right. There is too much greenwashing. There is too much razzle-dazzle and appeasement and not enough hard facts. It is up to the Government to speak about that when they are at the COP. It is up to the governments to do that, not the lobbyists. I was very disappointed with that.

I have stated previously that we cannot have a two-speed recovery. We have to make sure. It is a danger to social cohesion. It is a danger to democracy itself. It is up to the governments to make sure that this is said. People are saying that we will exceed the 1.5°C. You cannot argue with mother nature.
