[00:00:00]Here's one number that exposes how hard the old mining giants will have to work in a green metals world.

[00:00:07]Scope 3 emissions, the pollution from customers using their products, can be more than 20 times bigger than what comes directly from their mines.

[00:00:17]>> 20 times? So, even if a company cleans up its own operations, the steel mills and smelters using its ore still blow the carbon budget?

[00:00:26]>> That's the reality for big names like BHP, Rio Tinto, and Glencore, whose iron ore and coal still feed some of the world's dirtiest [music] steel and power plants, even as they promise net zero by 2050.

[00:00:42]In our latest full episode, we break down whether Australia's push into lithium, nickel, [music] rare earths, and green iron can genuinely flip that script, or if it just becomes a cleaner-sounding version of the same old model.

[00:00:58]>> If you want the full context behind that one number, and what [music] it means for your EV, your grid, and your climate, watch the complete video on The Green Blueprint.
