Nickel Mining. We see 1st hand the dark side of EV battery production. (ep 267)
From Virgin Rainforest To Barren Wasteland. Nickel Mining is booming in Indonesia. We sailed out catamaran up the east of coast Sulawesi, one of the hotspots for mining and witnessed first hand the impact this industry has on the coastline.
We spent a week anchored at the magical Labengki Island, an absolute paradise and it was only when we left and sailed further north did we see the destruction. It was such a shock to see in just a couple of miles the change. From virgin rainforest to barren red rock landscapes.
We are aware of the need for raw materials and are not naive to the way the world works but still, it was jarring to see it happening up close and personal.
We would love to hear your thoughts on this.

No Watermaker : How we fill up with fresh water in remote areas (ep 298)
Sailing through the Kabui Passage is a bit nerve wracking as it's super narrow, has big sharp cliffs on either side and the current can run either way up to 5 knots. It is a big shortcut and it is a very beautiful river-like cruise if you have the courage....
