Hyper-industrial-scale plastic production has become an industrial-scale health, environmental, and remediation problem. It is challenging to put a dollar figure on burying ourselves alive. The damage appears to have no endpoint. The UNDP estimates that up to $600 billion in environmental damage and ecosystem losses so far, but that figure fails to capture a bare minimum of $250-billion in annual health-care costs linked to plastics. Microplastics are now in our blood and our organs. They are the air that we breathe. It’s becoming harder…

The oil futures market appears not to have caught up with the massive supply disruption from the Middle East yet—a supply shock that is now in its third month and lasting more than anyone expected in early March. Brent and WTI crude futures this week are trading more than $30 per barrel higher compared to the levels on February 27, the day before the U.S. and Israel bombed Iran and prompted the Islamic Republic to close the Strait of Hormuz. But the futures trade $20-$30 per barrel lower than the physical cargoes of some grades produced outside…

UN REBAÑO CONTRA LAS LLAMAS SIN CONTROL Fotografía:

The Democratic Republic of Congo is leading a significant shift in mining strategy as producers cut back on cobalt after prices fell sharply under heavy oversupply and move capital into copper instead. Copper demand is rising fast, driven by AI data centers, electrification, and electric vehicles. But at the same time, supply is tightening due to declining ore grades and mine closures, pushing DRC miners toward a stronger market. The DRC has imposed strict export quotas, replacing its 2025 cobalt export ban with strict annual quotas of 96,600 tonnes…

The United States is exporting crude at record levels as the world grapples with an unprecedented disruption of Middle Eastern supply. U.S. oil has become the supply of last resort—and it is not infinite. U.S. crude oil exports since the start of April have been running at 5.2 million barrels daily, data from Kpler showed earlier this week. “It's a constant parade of tankers coming in and out,” the chief executive of Corpus Christi port in Texas said, as quoted by CNBC, which reported the port just booked its busiest quarter ever,…

Before 1 May, the once-mighty Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) had 12 members, but with the departure of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) at the start of the month, it has 11. These comprise Algeria, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, and Venezuela, together accounting for around 33% of the world’s crude oil output, about 46% of its total petroleum traded internationally, and roughly 73% of its proven oil reserves. Back when it was founded in 1960, these…

The American Petroleum Institute (API) estimated that crude oil inventories in the United States fell by 8.1 million barrels in the week ending May 1. In the week prior, US crude oil inventories fell by 1.79 million barrels. Analysts had expected a 2.8-million-barrel draw.

Venezuela’s oil is moving again. That does not mean Venezuela’s oil industry has been rebuilt. It means something narrower, more technical, and more revealing: part of the machinery required to make Venezuelan barrels tradable has been switched back on. That distinction matters for oil markets. Venezuela’s oil exports rose 14% in April to 1.23 million barrels per day, the country’s highest monthly export level since late 2018, according to Reuters. The increase followed a political reset after Nicolás Maduro’s…

With little fanfare but clear strategic impact, Equinor has brought the long-forgotten Eirin gas field into production, sending fresh gas volumes into Europe’s system at a moment when security of supply still outweighs nearly every other energy priority. The project may not be large by global standards, but its timing, speed, and symbolism speak far louder than its size. Once written off as uneconomic, Eirin is now flowing gas through the Gina Krog platform and onward via the Sleipner A hub, reinforcing Norway’s position as Europe’s…
