  "textContent": "Cobalt sits at the heart of the clean energy transition, but this study suggests its supply chain is far more fragile than it appears. Cobalt plays a central role in lithium-ion batteries and electric vehicles, but its global supply chain faces growing systemic risks that extend well beyond isolated disruptions. A new study shows that [...]",
