Clean energy is basically only nuclear, which is laughably unclean if you think about it for five seconds. Maybe geothermal is clean. Solar might be clean if it's done locally in the regions that produce those minerals, but I doubt it.

    There is a difference between "extraction" as it currently exists and trade in the purist sense, which allows for the beneficial sharing of resources for all people.

        I do agree with this, in whatever form it comes in, the waste and excess of the global north must be fixed. I mostly take umbrage with the idea that "The entire concept of civilization is inherently unsustainable," since the system that has created this is not civilization, it is capitalism, mercanitlism, imperialism etc. Civilization does not need to be exploitative.
