"There has been much excitement since Australia signed a landmark agreement
with the United States last month to expand cooperation on critical minerals
and rare earth elements.
These materials are essential for electric vehicles, wind turbines, and clean
energy technologies. The deal promises to help Australia move beyond simply
digging and shipping raw materials. Instead, we would refine and manufacture
advanced, high-value products here at home.
But at the very moment we’re being asked to play a bigger role in global
clean-tech supply chains, the science facilities that underpin these ambitions
are under threat."
