To rightists, our pointing out of their bad behaviour is the
problem, never their bad behaviour itself. This is why it is a
waste of time trying to reason with them. We simply have to
eliminate their bloodlines.

The Longest Running US Oil Spill You've Never Heard Of
--- Quote ---
> When Hurricane Ivan knocked over an offshore oil platform off
the coast of Louisiana in 2004, oil started leaking into the
Gulf of Mexico. The company that owned the platform went
bankrupt and never had the well capped. It wasn't until 15 years
later that the US Coast Guard hired Timmy Couvillion to use his
specially designed containment device to start collecting the
leaking oil. But to this day, the leak continues from America's
longest running oil spill.

What The Rubber ‘Apocalypse’ Means For The U.S. Economy
--- Quote ---
> The global economy now faces a rubber shortage because of
multiple supply chain disruptions. "We could be on the cusp of a
rubber apocalypse," Ohio State University professor Katrina
Cornish told CNBC. Rubber producers are working against all
odds: climate change, disease and the fight for shipping
containers. The global rubber market was valued at nearly $40
billion in 2020, but one analysis predicts the natural rubber
market could be worth nearly $68.5 billion by 2026.
>
> Rubber is a critical raw material needed for car tires,
personal protective equipment such as masks and gloves, and many
more everyday products. Anytime you’re going anywhere, you’re
using rubber. Now, supply chain disruptions have thrown the
rubber industry into a tailspin.

One analysis predicts the natural rubber market could be worth
nearly $68.5 billion by 2026. One reason for the increased
demand? Car tires.

> “We are using tires more and more,” Stefano Savi, director of
the Global Platform for Sustainable Natural Rubber, told CNBC.
“The amount of mileage that we’re going to do as a global
population is definitely bound to increase, and that’s why the
demand for rubber is really continuing to increase.”

Rubber tires — a dirty business
--- Quote ---
> The booming global tire market is worth billions - but this
comes at a high price, both to humans and the environment. Over
50 million car tires are sold each year in Germany alone. But
where does the natural rubber for them come from?
>
> The biggest producer of natural rubber for tires is Thailand.
More than four million tonnes of rubber are harvested annually
in plantations there. And demand for rubber is ever growing -
because ever more tires are needed. But the labor conditions in
Southeast Asia are harsh - with working days of up to 12 hours
and very low wages. In addition, toxic herbicides banned in
Europe are used to fight weeds on the plantations. After the
harvest, the ‘white gold’ rubber is sold to brokers, who, in
turn, sell it on. German tire manufacturers, like Continental,
for example, are keen to stress that they use "natural
commodities conscientiously.” But many car drivers don’t give a
second thought about where the rubber in their tires comes from
- and why we don’t recycle used tires more effectively.

Why A Looming Copper Shortage Has Big Consequences For The Green
Economy
--- Quote ---
> Copper prices have surged in 2021. The base metal remains in
high demand, much thanks to its need in green energy projects
and electric cars. In May 2021, commodities analysts at Goldman
Sachs called copper ‘the new oil.’ That’s because electric cars
need several times more copper than their gas-powered
counterparts. And power grids getting electricity from wind,
solar and hydro sources also need copper—much more than the
industry is currently producing. Here’s how copper became so
important to the world economy and the green energy revolution.

How a Sovereign Group in Jamaica Is Fighting a US Mining Company
--- Quote ---
> Jamaica was once the world’s leading exporter of bauxite,
which is the ore from which aluminum is made, but decades of
mining have taken a toll on the land and the people. With
reserves depleted, the government is now pushing to move mining
operations into the most ecologically sensitive part of the
island known as Cockpit Country. The people of Cockpit Country
fought off the British in the 1700s and now they're conjuring
the warrior spirit of their ancestors to take that fight to the
mining companies.

And as usual, Westerners do more Western civilization in order
to study the effects of Western civilization.

Jean-Baptiste Fleury of the University of Saarland in Germany,

a cell membrane through purely physical processes, however, is
completely ignored by the vast majority of studies.”
