How can you stop mining?

Answer 1

Start by deciding what you want to give up. You are likely sitting in a building, reading this on a computer. The building was built with metals (from mining). Your computer was built with minerals and metals (from mining) The electricity for your computer is carried on wires (from mining)- and was probably generated by a power plant that uses oil, gas, coal, or uranium (from mining). Plan on being hungry- the truck (metal from mining) that carried your food to the store drove on a road that was paved using crushed stone (from mining). If it was not grown by someone, then it was dug out of the ground- by mining. The period of time before mining was the Stone Age. Ready to go find a cave where you can huddle by the fire on a cold night? Remember that when the sabre toothed tiger shows up, your only weapon is a pointy stick- since metals and stones come from........ mining.
