GSA Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, and Volcanology (MGPV) Division’s webinar recording of "Mineral Education and Science Communication for the Energy Transition" is now posted on the "Webinars" MGPV webpage<https://community.geosociety.org/mgpvdivision/resources/mgpv-webinars> of the "Resources" menu. The speaker is Thomas Hale, Department of Geography and Spatial Sciences, University of Delaware. Mounting government and private sector interest in critical materials and economic deposits for the energy transition is ushering in new opportunities for early career professionals who want to apply their technical knowledge to practical issues facing society. However, the gap between mineral education in our society and the need for expanded science communication puts pressure on scientists to secure funding and produce new knowledge while also translating their research to the public and policymakers. This presentation explores the opportunities and challenges surrounding mineral education and the role of the MGPV community in raising awareness about materials in our everyday lives while also being key thought leaders for policy development and education about the energy transition.
