Indigenous Perspectives (Vol. 5, No. 1, 2002): The Myth of Sustainable and Responsible Mining

The third in a series focusing on the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), this issue discusses the mining industry's efforts to present its paradigm of “Sustainable and Responsible Mining” to greenwash the industry. This issue critiques these initiatives in the light of indigenous peoples' opposition to extractive industries that mine and destroy their lands.
