We celebrate the 9th edition of the International Geoethics Day on 16 October 2025. The theme of this year is "geoethics for a sustainable energy future".

Critical Minerals and Critical Perspectives: Political Ecologies of Mining in Aotearoa and the USA

The IAPG – International Association for Promoting Geoethics – is proud to co-sponsor and contribute to two major events this September. These occasions represent important milestones for the geoscience community and provide platforms to address sustainability, ethics, and the future of raw materials and engineering geology.

We highlight the Sub-theme: "Geoethics and Inclusive Development" (Ethical governance of Earth's resources is crucial for sustainable development)

Video recording of the talk "Geoethics and the polycrisis: Navigating humanity’s role in shaping a responsible future".

The Society of Exploration Geophysicists released the podcast of the interview to Giuseppe Di Capua (IAPG Secretary General and Treasurer).

The journal Chemical Science issued the paper titled “An anthropocene-framed transdisciplinary dialog at the chemistry-energy nexus”.

Serving as a significant milestone in geoethics, this book provides insights into the ethics of the human-Earth system relationship.

The IAPG White Paper on Responsible Mining was translated in Spanish by Marita Ahumada (member of the IAPG Task Group on Responsible Mining)
