Under their roots lie vast reserves of lithium, vital for the rechargeable electric car batteries that will reduce planet-heating pollution.

Canada’s oil sands are the fourth-largest oil deposit on Earth and among the most energy-intensive to access and process. Buried beneath the boreal forest of northern Alberta, bitumen is a thick, heavy tar-like form of petro...
