While President Biden and Interior Sec. Deb Haaland push for more oil and gas wells and fracking in the Greater Chaco region -- the Navajo Government's "Navajo Transitional Energy Company" is pushing coal mines, and now plans to join an Australian company to devastate the sacred land of the Hualapai with lithium mining.
Lithium, in demand for electric vehicle batteries, is part of the fake green solutions to climate change.
Flying under the banner of energy transition, the Biden administration and Navajo Nation are pushing the most polluting and devastating drilling and mining on earth.
The Climate Trace map revealed at the U.N. Climate Summit in Egypt shows the San Juan, N.M., oil and gas fields, and Navajo power plants and coal mines, are among those polluting the world's air, emitting greenhouse gases causing global warming, and poisoning the air and causing respiratory illnesses.
The Navajo government's energy transition team is already operating four coal mines and a power plant, and invested in a Texas company mining rare earth minerals.
The Navajo Transitional Energy Company, part of the Navajo government and located in the bordertown of Farmington, N.M., owns 20 percent of the shares in Texas Mineral Resources Corp., and 7 percent ownership interest in the Four Corners Power Plant on the Navajo Nation. It also operates the Navajo Coal mine, and three coal mines in Wyoming and Montana, according to its website.
The Texas Mineral Resources Corp. mines rare earth minerals for U.S. military killing machines. Besides mining for electric vehicles, it produced "rare earths used in each F-35 Joint Strike Fighter jet, assembled by Lockheed Martin in Fort Worth Texas," its website states.
The U.S. Government's Rapid Response Team met with regional officials in August and said the energy transition in the Four Corners would be led by the atomic bomb industry, the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Interior Sec. Deb Haaland was among those present, visiting local oil and gas fields and meeting privately at San Juan College to discuss energy transition.
Meanwhile, the Biden administration is pushing for new oil and gas wells, and fracking, in the Greater Chaco region in northwest New Mexico.
Earthjustice shares the photo above of the sacred spring that would be devastated by the lithium mine, and words of Hualapai.
The Hualapai and other tribes have used Ha’Kamwe’ for centuries for healing, prayer, and rites of passage, such as childbirth and coming-of-age ceremonies for young women.
Now Paya and other Hualapai are fighting to save the spring. An Australian company on the hunt for lithium is drilling exploratory holes deep underground, in some cases just yards away from Ha’Kamwe’. In recent months, the water level of the spring has been dropping, according to Hualapai leaders, amid the continuous drilling.
