Lab-grown diamonds: Popular with Gen Z, millennials but not sustainable | Fortune

Most don't know they're made in China and India from electricity generated by burning coal.

It’s got all the hits. Huge energy. Extremely patronizing toward younger people.

So the article quotes one “diamond expert” Paul Zimnisky poo-pooing artificial diamonds. Now according to Mr. Zimnisky’s website:

Disclosure: As of January 2024, Paul Zimnisky held a long equity position in Lucara Diamond Corp, Brilliant Earth Group, Star Diamond Corp and Newmont Corp. Paul is an independent board member of Lipari Diamond Mines, a privately-held Canadian company with an operating diamond mine in Brazil and a development-stage asset in Angola.

So yep, child slavers as qualified experts.
