2023.07.27 到目前为止，我们可能已经接受了这样一个事实：世界各地的食品价格将继续变得更加昂贵。 在加拿大，平均食品杂货账单不断上涨。对一些家庭来说，现在已经难以承受。 6 月份，加拿大食品通胀同比增长 9.1%，紧跟 5 月份增长的 9%。 与正在放缓的 2.8% 的总体通胀率相比，食品价格的走势似乎是一个大问题。 加拿大统计局上个月通过 […]

负担得起的食物的日子现在可能已成为遥远的记忆。经过数月的稳步下跌后，食品商品的价格仍远高于大流行前的水平，目前正出现反弹迹象。 4 月份，联合国粮食机构的世界价格指数在一年内首次上涨，反映糖、肉和大米价格上涨。尽管联合国的指标仍比 2022 年 3 月创下的纪录低 20%，当时俄罗斯入侵乌克兰中断了粮食出口，但人们对通胀的担忧从未消失。 许多地区的杂货价格仍处于历史高位，使消费者预算紧张并加剧了饥饿危机。 许多人认为，虽然食品商品可能不会很快达到 2022 年的高位，但在可预见的未来，我们的食品杂货账单不会变得更便宜。这是由于几个相互交织的因素在起作用： 投入成本上升 […]

The modernization and electrification of our global transportation system will require a change hitherto unprecedented in the history of civilization. Not even the shift from horse and buggy to the crank-start Ford Model T can compete with what it will take to electrify the billion-plus cars on the planet’s roads, and eventually put a complete stop to noxious tailpipe emissions resulting from the combustion of gasoline and diesel fuel, that are poisoning the air we breathe.
For now, thorium is a theoretical solution to our energy dilemma, but it could be much more than that. A concerted effort to develop thorium reactor technology could provide stable, clean, base-load power for millions, something that is not possible with renewables due to the intermittency factor and the current early stages of renewable battery storage technology. It is safer and better for the environment than uranium and can even use radioactive waste as feedstock for the nuclear reaction, thus killing two birds with one stone. The market is not yet ready for thorium, but when it is, a whole new mining sector and supply chain will be born.

Look up the word sustainable in the Oxford English dictionary and you get the following definition: “avoidance of the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance.”
Unfortunately the world’s ecological balance has not been right for a very long time. As a society, we are consuming resources far more quickly than we are replacing them, which is the very definition of unsustainable.

As the fight against the coronavirus continues to take center stage, an insidious environmental problem is getting worse: plastic pollution.
The global health crisis has prompted a rush for single-use plastic just as governments around the world were taking steps to curtail or ban its usage. Demand has surged for everything from face shields and gloves to takeaway food containers and bubble wrap for online shopping — most of which cannot be recycled and is ending up as waste.

Goldman Sachs says that the next structural bull market for commodities will be driven by spending on green energy.
The fossil-fueled based transportation system needs to be electrified, and the switch must be made from oil, gas, and coal-powered power plants to those which run on solar, wind and thorium-produced nuclear energy. If we have any hope of cleaning up the planet, before the point of no return, a massive decarbonization needs to take place.
In a recent report, commodities consultancy Wood Mackenzie said an investment of over $1 trillion will be required in key energy transition metals over the next 15 years, just to meet the growing needs of decarbonization.

The thawing of permafrost is yet another manifestation of climate change, that populations living near it will have to deal with in the coming decades as global warming accelerates, particularly in the polar regions
Mining is often deemed complicit in the rise of greenhouse gas emissions, given its use of heavy machinery and ground disturbance, but in this case, in areas where the ground is permanently frozen but starting to thaw, operations can be negatively impacted, and big miners are having to shell out millions. We have seen the implications of thawing permafrost at Teck’s Red Dog Mine in Alaska, and at Norilsk Nickel’s Oktyabrsky and Taimyrsky mines in Siberia.
The problem is not going away; in fact, there is every indication it will get worse.

Few products have grabbed the attention of a global consumer market within such a short period of time.
Cannabidiol - or CBD as most people call it - has generated a lot of buzz over the past couple of years following the legalization of cannabis in Canada and multiple US states.

CBD is one of the most prevalent chemical compounds found naturally in hemp and marijuana plants. While many tend to associate marijuana with feelings of psychoactivity, CBD by itself does not cause a “high” and is non-intoxicating.
