The Price Hidden in Your Pocket
Your smartphone contains a secret. Between its gleaming screen and sleek casing lies a mineral extracted by children working in conditions that would horrify you-yet 75% of the world's cobalt comes from a single region in Congo smaller than Greater London. This isn't ancient history or distant abstraction. Right now, as you read this, children are dying in collapsing tunnels so we can scroll through social media and drive electric cars. Congo produces 72% of global cobalt, the irreplaceable element that keeps our rechargeable batteries stable and our digital lives humming. But this technological miracle rests on a foundation of exploitation so brutal it echoes the darkest chapters of colonial history. The miners earning $1-2 daily generate billions for foreign corporations, creating a paradox where the country holding trillions in mineral wealth ranks 175th on the UN Human Development Index.
