What if the green transition was just an old story repainted green?
Indeed, history seems to be repeating itself, but with cruel irony. Whereas in the 19th century, ivory and rubber fueled colonial ambitions in the Democratic Republic of Congo, for example, the 21st century is witnessing a new rush to Africa, but this time in the name of green transition. Because the electric vehicles that glide silently through the streets of Stockholm carry within them the invisible scars of Congolese communities. Each battery tells the story of a childhood broken in an open-pit mine, of a community dispossessed of its ancestral lands. Behind every gram of cobalt whispers the silence of razed forests, poisoned rivers, and betrayed hopes.
