A story in @TheAthletic deeply deeply about about climate change (combined with earlier kickoffs and the influence of TV media rights deals) with zero mention of the concept of climate change! nytimes.com/athletic/7570746…

It me! And hello from @diggersndealers in Australia, where literally as I type this we’re hearing from one of at least a couple junior miners very eager to tell everyone here how much tungsten their project happens to have
FT Exclusive: A mining company says it has discovered America’s largest deposit of tungsten, a crucial defence industry metal in severe shortage, but space agency Nasa is blocking its development. ft.trib.al/wt2tBpN

Lots of important findings in this story but these are the biggest, signs the fertilizer crunch is about to start hitting planting seasons around the world. And likely many of the world’s poorest will suffer first and the worst from the Iran war’s ripple effects.
Thailand is one of the first ag countries to enter a planting season since the Iran war. We went to document the impact of supply shocks to fuel/fertilizer — It was worse than I anticipated. Farmers are leaving huge tracts of land barren bc they can’t afford to plant.

US trade rep Jamieson Greer is trying to convince the world’s big consumers to pay more for minerals. He’s not wrong but it’s a hard hard sell And just as much at home as abroad. Trying to compete w China could be a bottomless money pit Thinking a lot rn of Rick Perry, c2017…
