Tämä on Lapis Lazuli, joka on tehty tästä Badakshan-rajoista. Puuri pigmentti. Voiko rauhassa olemaan todella konfliktipää? No, yhdistelmät ympärillä maailmaa eivät vain luoda rauhoja täysin transparenttiin, vaan tekevät niitä alueilla, joilla on markkinoitu konfliktia tai osallistumista.

Pippa Small on juulija Londossa. Hän on tehtävä järjestelmä, joka liittyy kaikkiin nettoihin, luodaan vastuullisia, käsitellytäviä tuotantojärjestelmiä varten, jotka auttavat heidän transformaatiotaan juuriin.

Joulu, joka tarkoittaa perheiden metallien ja naisen, jotka neuvottavat niitä. Koko prosessi, kuten Kolumbiassa, ja New Yorkissa, on tarkoitettu. Olemme todella varmoja työskentelemään pienissä perheiden naisissa. Olemme työskenteleviä perheiden naisissa. Olemme työskenteleviä naisissa, jotta tiedämme ja olemme varmoja, miten ne ovat tuottaneet. Gold next goes to a refinery. And from there, a local goldsmith, where design collaboration starts.

These pieces are made from gold from Choco on Colombia's Pacific coast, a place where gold has shaped identity, conflict and survival for thousands of years. Much of today's mining is informal or illegal and often linked to armed criminal groups. Carmen is a registered miner and member of the Women's Association for Artisanal Miners from Choco. Mining defines our lives in a challenging and complex way.

I think that the woman miner is a fighting woman. Illegal mining affects us deeply because we are exposed to gender-based violence, labor exploitation, the dispossession of our lands. Many people will be wearing gold directly linked to this, but would never know of its bloodied past, which often disproportionately affects women.

Despite numerous logistical and sourcing challenges across these different locations, one thing all the women I spoke to had in common was a determination to continue mining and creating ethical jewellery. In the process, the first challenge is often protecting the land the precious metals and gems are mined from. As Carmen from Choco told me, land is life. It must be preserved.

Sure.

Nice to see everybody.

On the billionaire tax proposal, I just wondered if you have actually engaged with any of the billionaires who have threatened or have left.

And what have those conversations been like?

Kiitos. Kiitos. Kiitos. Kiitos. Kiitos.

In the electric vehicle space, it wasn't long ago, just a couple weeks ago, that we saw that China's BYD has surpassed Tesla as the biggest EV maker in the world. And we've also seen a bit of a backlash, to say the least, against Elon Musk, the boss at Tesla, for his involvement in right-wing politics and the role that he played therein.

the Trump administration for the first couple of months last year. So what we're seeing now is a pivot away from EVs. Elon Musk even said that they are actually going to be phasing out the Model S and the Model X, two vehicles that were blockbusters at various points in this company's history. It was there when the Model X was released 10 years ago.

The company seemed like it was at the top of the world back then, but they're moving towards robotics, moving towards AI, capping that with this $2 billion investment by Tesla in Musk's private artificial intelligence venture, XAI.

The similarity is that there are documents that appear to show that these companies were aware of the addictiveness of their product. According to the lawyers of the individuals injured, they claim that they moved forward with their products –

Because they wanted to make money from them, notwithstanding the awareness that they were producing addiction and serious physical injury. That's the plaintiff's argument in both cases. Our North America Tech correspondent Lily Jamali told me more.

This is a case brought by a 19-year-old woman identified by the initials KGM. She had been alleging that the algorithmic design, the way these platforms actually design what dictates the stuff that we all see, left her addicted and affected her mental health. So she was suing not just Snapchat, but also TikTok and those other companies that you mentioned, YouTube and Meta.

In this case, what we saw today was a settlement announced at a hearing today with Snap, but those other three cases remain active. So those other three defendants will still have to defend themselves in court starting next week at trial, where we will see Mark Zuckerberg, the boss over at Meta, take the stand unless his company ends up following Snap and settling as well.

I mean, do we know what Mark Zuckerberg or other tech CEOs are expected to argue? Well, we have a sense from some of the statements that they have made, for example, at congressional hearings. Generally, they're very careful not to take responsibility or admit that they were aware of some of the addictive nature of these platforms.
