Tech broligarchs are bad, but your hatred for transhumanism is irrational.

Any research made into life extension/reversing aging/mind uploading will help medicine advance. If they find a cure for Alzheimer, some Chinese or Indian company will copy it and make it "aspirine-cheap" for the global poor

Global steel production is down 2.1% YTD until October

Global steel production is down 2.1 % Ytd, including a 5.9% decline in October.
And most of it is due to blast furnace production decline

There's NO WAY there will be a growth in global coal consumption outside the power sector this year, even if Nov-Dec see growth

But the other main users of coal, the cement and steel making sectors, are seeing dramatic drops in output.

Chinese drop in output alone could lower global steel production by 1%, even if the rest of the world sees a rise in steel production

Yeah bro, because Assad didnt send Palestinians to Sendaya and didnt kill 40,000 Palestinians during the siege of Yarmouk

small suggestion: could you somehow the percentages visible in a table form? for small BEV/PHEV percentages, its impossible to see on the monthly graph, like Japan and New Zeeland

also, a 12-month rolling sum view option would be super interesting as well

Kyle's takes on Syria and Iran were always horseshit, dont bother listen to them

This is not praising the new government, its simply saying that Assad Syria was so bad there was literally no room to get worse

Useful puppets given that Israel has bombed Syria ever since Assad fell?

Over 1 million Syrians returned home since Assad fell per UNHCR , anyone who denies the fact that new Syria is more safe for the majority of people has no fucking idea what's going on

To be fair,America was always prone to sectarian and ideological violence.

And European nationalism got heavily suppressed post WW2, while American nationalism flourished without any shame or humiliation.

That resulted in a sense of entitlement unparalleled in the developed world, except Israel

How is it possible that coal emissions increased in H1 2025, when IEA says global coal demand decreased 1% in H1 2025?

Is it due to the use of lower grades of coal?

your framing is wrong
its not that agricultural productivity has declined, It's that it has grown at a slower rate than before

“When climate change slows productivity gains, it pushes more land into cultivation, often at the expense of forests and carbon-rich ecosystems,”

this is not as bad as you think

security of supply will lower global oil prices, which are already down to 65$ per barrel, pre Iran-Israel war level

Iran lost a significant chunk of its equipment, can't supply Russia anymore and oil prices are low, best outcome
