Diamond mines are some of the largest holes ever dug in the Earth, requiring immense amounts of fossil fuels to extract the gemstones with heavy machinery. The Mirny Diamond Mine is almost a mile in diameter and 1,722' deep. It is the second largest hole in the Earth.
While lab diamonds are vegan, mined diamonds are not, with damage to watersheds and ecosystems far beyond the hole in the ground. One single diamond mine to be dug in India in the coming years will require the cutting down of 492,000 trees and the destruction of a Bengal Tiger corridor.
Furthermore, diamond mining gets less sustainable every year, whereas growing diamonds is getting more sustainable. Many diamond growers are already using renewable energy to grow diamonds and multiple diamond growing facilities are under construction in areas where renewable power is readily available.
