The War Below: Lithium, Copper, and the Global Battle to Power Our Lives is a work of narrative nonfiction by Reuters senior correspondent Ernest Scheyder. The book examines the mineral supply chains that underlie electric vehicles, solar panels, batteries, and other technologies central to the clean energy transition. Rather than treating decarbonization as a purely technological challenge, Scheyder shows that it depends on mining, refining, permitting, geopolitics, and public consent. The result is a grounded account of the tensions between environmental ambition and extractive reality. Scheyder follows critical minerals such as lithium, copper, cobalt, nickel, and rare earths through contested sites in the United States and abroad, showing how local opposition, Indigenous rights, ecological protection, and strategic competition with China shape the future of energy. The book is both explanatory and journalistic, designed to help readers understand why the green transition is inseparable from difficult choices about land use, industry, and global power.
