      Hi Howard, thanks for bringing this to our attention. Do you have any rare plants or animals that are subject to protection? If so find evidence of these and you have good grounds to get it stopped. The sites of the 'Mondego narcissus' provide some areas of protection near us, further north by Fornos. And if necessary we'll protest at the CM in Guarda - if this is where the decision is to be taken.

    Howard, are there any lawyers involved with stopping this mining project, or organizations working against it? Can you list any details you know here so I can follow up? Usually when there is approval for a devastating project like this, someone was paid off to approve it, the whole story needs to come out, whether the corruption is current or in the past.

    Oh goodness, I'm so sorry to hear this - especially for those of you who live in this beautiful area. I have booked flights to come out at the end of the month to look at land where you are, precisely for all of the reasons you've described; now I'm wondering whether I should look elsewhere. I left the UK in 2018, and have been travelling since. Portugal really appeals to me, beautiful countryside, lovely people, sunshine... and I'm astonished that this mine expansion is being considered. Although, of course, money talks.
    In any case, I've signed the petition and send you all my very best wishes and love. I will keep watching your channel, and help wherever I can.

    I will sign. But the mining will continue - if not there, then in some other place. There is sadly just ONE overwhelming problem on this planet : that one rapacious species has colonised every part, has no predator but does have a ridiculous sense of entitlement. Human.
    It was good that you mention the habitat destruction for non-humans also. But almost everything we humans do impacts harmfully on others : human and non-human. It's sad that one cannot make clay objects without destroying lives. Wish you well.

    The mine should go ahead. Portugal badly needs economic development. It is not in a privileged enough position to forgo economic opportunity.

    Yeah, it seams prety clear. Im all for it. Then, in that zone, seize all cellphones with lithium bateries, all hybrid cars and, last but not the least, all electric cars people own in that area, starting with the video publisher. Hypocrit at work. They dont want lithium mines, but they sure love their nice smartphones, cars, etc. equiped with lithium bateries. For them lithium its cool, just not at their door step, but from someone else neighbourwood its all good.

      This lithium is not for batteries - it is for ceramics.

      Agreed that everything has to come from somewhere, and sure, people all seem to want the latest stuff, but that in itself is not sustainable. The mine here is for ceramics, not for batteries, and the impact on tourism, the degradation of water sources and many other factors outweigh any economic benefit of this particular operation. Cheers for taking the time to comment.

    Para mim o estranho é ver os estranhos ao nosso país a lutarem por ele, Portugueses não têm vergonha de deixar isto acontecer? Os estrangeiros agora têm opiniões a dar sobre o meu país? Não acordem que não é preciso! E claro que esta história do lítio é mais uma das hipocrisias dos nossos governantes, ou melhor, dos sabujos da UE. Vamos ter cidades limpas e todo o país destruído por esta loucura dos carros "verdes"
