With Beijing tightening its grip via new rare-earth export controls, revisit our commentary from @Cathy_Haenlein and @DanMarks14 that argues that the UK has a vital opportunity to redefine its position in critical minerals and forge a more resilient path. rusi.org/explore-our-re…

Our new report by @DanMarks14 and Jennifer Scotland examines the design and operation of voluntary carbon markets (VCMs) to pinpoint what makes them vulnerable to corruption. Learn more below. rusi.org/explore-our-re…

'If a poison must be picked, the UK government is justified in not abandoning its energy and environmental objectives on the basis of security concerns resulting from China’s market dominance in clean energy' writes @DanMarks14. rusi.org/explore-our-re…

How can we ensure the security of production networks while simultaneously switching to clean energy quickly, cheaply, and in a way that boosts our economy? Learn more below. rusi.org/explore-our-re…

China dominates global supply chains for #CRM - so what can countries like the UK do to improve #ESG standards for minerals which are critical for the global green transition? @RUSI_org @DanMarks14, @Cathy_Haenlein & I dug into the levers the UK holds rusi.org/explore-our-re…

The UK has lacked momentum towards its objective of 'levelling the playing field' for the responsible sourcing of minerals while maintaining its market position. But there are policy options that might help the country achieve both.

Will low-carbon hydrogen become critical for the supply of materials required for national security? If so, is the UK doing enough to lay the foundations for future security of supply? In this paper we argue that more could be done to engage with prospective global hotspots.

📺With many major Chinese brands rapidly entering the UK market, there are concerns that the software embedded in electric vehicles could be used to spy on UK drivers or even cause a remote shutdown. @Jarnecki explores whether these concerns are valid. #RUSIVideoCommentary.

📺 "No country with a manufacturing sector as large as the UK or with similar GDP or population produces as little steel as the UK already. France has a similar kind of characteristic and produces about double the amount of steel", says RUSI's @DanMarks14 to @BBCBusiness. 👇
