Join our host and journalist Robin Stickley as she digs into some fascinating conversations about what, how, and Why We Mine. Think about it - practically everything around you that isn’t born or grown is mined. The toothpaste you brush with every morning, the vehicle you use to get around, even the screen you’re reading this on right now contain minerals extracted from the earth. As the climate warms and we race for sustainable solutions, we know you’re asking questions: How can mining help us hit our emissions targets by 2050? How do we continue to build an inclusive workforce and prosperous communities? How will we sustainably mine enough copper for the all the electric cars? Robin explores the answers and takes a closer look at Canada’s innovative mining technologies and community-driven approaches to ensure a sustainable future for everyone.

Copper has long been used in cooking, roofing, and making beautiful jewelry. It’s also a key component in the transition to an electrified future, and its antimicrobial superpower is the focus of scientific study. As copper works behind the scenes to stop the spread of germs, what will it mean for public health over the next hundred years? We talk to Dr. Marthe Charles, Head Of Division Medical Microbiology and Infection Prevention and Control at Vancouver Coastal Health, about the role of copper in public health and Catherine Adair, Manager of Community Development at Teck about their work to ensure that Copper Stops the Spread.
