  1. No. We're running out of rare earth metals. China owns the remaining reserves. I smell a malthusian crisis (ww3) on the horizon

  2. Because it means we're collapsing

  6.  @moustaphadiallo600  No. Are you? There's gold and phosphorous on the moon. Why don't we mine it?

  7.  @moustaphadiallo600  We went to the moon multiple times. Quit wasting money and resources just to stay on the moon and come back. We need a permanent colony.

  8.  @moustaphadiallo600  We will witness peak phosphorous and oil before 2050. Rare earths are economically unviable to recycle with current tech. Rare earths are needed for solar and hydropower, and if we are to avoid peak oil and food prices skyrocketing we need to mine the moon.

  9.  @moustaphadiallo600  Common sense. phosphorous and other resources are getting scarcer by the day. If you want a dark age, political instability from hyperinflation and resource depletion, be my guest. I value progress.

  10. Resource depletion is the cause.
