#BurlingtonVT startup #NthCycle scores billion-dollar metal #recycling deal

By Hiawatha Bray Globe Staff, March 17, 2026

"Both Nth Cycle and Ascend have developed water-based technologies to extract metals by reprocessing 'black mass,' the ground-up remnants of worn-out #lithiumIon batteries. They can also use the leftover scrap generated by battery manufacturers. Both companies claim that their technologies can capture these metals while generating far less #ToxicWaste than other recycling methods."

Last year the California legislature approved a bill that allows "advanced manufacturing" projects to be exempt from environmental review. These projects could include manufacturing semiconductors, making lithium ion batteries and the production of rare earth materials, all of which involve poisonous chemicals and toxic waste. https://horizonskyline.net/2026/03/27/if-you-think-gov-newsom-cares-about-californias-environment-think-again/ #environment #Newsom #SB131 #toxicwaste #CANews

#ToxicWaste from screens ends up in endangered #dolphins, study finds

Gene-altering chemicals found in humpback dolphins and finless porpoises, raising alarm they may end up in human food chain

Excerpt: " 'The presence of #LCMs in their brains is a major red flag,' He said. 'If these chemicals can cross the blood-brain barrier in dolphins, we must be concerned about the potential for similar effects in humans who are exposed through contaminated seafood or even drinking water.'

"#ElectronicWaste is a growing problem around the world, with 62m tonnes of it generated each year. The main culprit is '#FastTech' – cheap and often poorly manufactured items viewed as disposable, including devices that use LCMs.

"To reduce the damage, the researchers said people should try to extend the life of their #electronics through #repairs and disposing of them using certified #EWaste recycling methods."
