Systems Approach toward a Greener Eco-efficient Mineral Extraction and Sustainable Land Use Management in the Philippines

As the world transition towards a low-carbon future through renewable energy, mining of minerals and metals to attain this goal is substantial. The Philippines will play an important role in such global economy as it is the world’s fifth most mineral-rich country. However, their exploitation has not...
