The world is coming back on its feet after the coronavirus pandemic, and governments are putting a lot of money into businesses.

One of the most important materials is copper, and it tells us about the situation for businesses. People use copper in many products, and now, the demand for copper is quickly growing. It is one of the reasons why the prices of copper doubled during the pandemic.

Companies are developing new more environmentally-friendly technologies, and it is not clear if copper producers will be ready to benefit from this situation.

Difficult words: come back on one’s feet (to recover from a problem), copper (a soft red-brown metal or material), demand (to want something), benefit (to get a good result from a situation).
