> The Paris agreement was a big step moving humanity towards sustainable energy

How so? That is a non binding resolution where the world's greatest polluters are still allowed to increase their carbon footprint. Countries receive all sorts of praise for signing it and their so called commitment to "battle climate change", even though it's still business as usually, but at least they signed it I guess.

And since a lot of mining is done in countries where the majority of their energy comes from fossil energy sources it has a footprint.
