I have to disagree with @FredSimonEU on this piece. Why is it Indigenous people who have to compromise, and accept violations of their rights?
Why wouldn't you ask corporate developers to compromise, and find fairer and better ways to build?

@FredSimonEU "Hard choices need to be made, some of them involving trade-offs"
Doesn't it seem fairer to ask those who've always had power and money and dominance to be the ones who make the hard choices, rather than the historically marginalised and most cruelly hard-done in recent history?

@FredSimonEU Why would you go straight to "Indigenous communities should ignore the findings of the Supreme court and accept violations of their rights"
Rather than: rich countries should pay up and transform so they demand fewer critical minerals in transport?

@FredSimonEU #Fosendommen is a perfect example of what happens when you take the simple view towards clean energy development that society, human rights and environment must always come last in decision making. You end up with the worst mess imaginable - all entirely avoidable.
