How can mining be more environmentally friendly?
Bacteria can be used to mine
The bacteria Acidothiopacillus ferrooxidans is used to mine gold, copper, and other metals; I believe (but I have to double check) that more than five mines worldwide use this system; it is superior to the cyanide method in terms of metal recovery and does not pollute water or soil. The system that this type of bacteria is used in needs to be under control (temperature, pH, pressure, etc.).

Mining can be made more environmentally friendly through various approaches, including:
- Implementing sustainable mining practices that minimize environmental impact.
- Utilizing advanced technologies for efficient resource extraction and waste management.
- Reclaiming and restoring mined areas to their natural state after extraction.
- Reducing water and energy consumption during mining operations.
- Implementing stricter regulations and monitoring mechanisms to enforce environmental compliance.
- Investing in research and development of cleaner mining technologies and alternative materials.
- Engaging stakeholders, including local communities and environmental organizations, in decision-making processes to mitigate environmental concerns.
- Promoting transparency and accountability in the mining industry to ensure responsible environmental stewardship.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
