The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) hit historic lows this week as President Joe Biden continues to order a record release of barrels from the emergency stockpile. The SPR now sits at around 453 million barrels – the lowest level in 37 years. For perspective, the U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates that in 2021, the United States consumed an average of about 19.78 million barrels of petroleum per day. If oil and gas production were to halt completely, today’s SPR would have just enough supply to fuel the United States for 22 days. ------------------------------- Whole story depicted in Bloomberg Graph...

ANP received the following email a little over a week ago, and I have spent time researching the issue, which is meat prices, how they continue to rise and how a “surge” is expected, which experts are predicting will last years. (Article by Susan Duclos republished from AllNewsPipeline.com) Yes, years. Not counting how they have already “surged” over the course of the last two years, we are now being warned that another spike is expected, which we will get into below the email sent to ANP. The name of the town and reader has been redacted at the request of...

For the first time in nearly 50 years, Great Britain’s inflation rate is expected spike beyond 18 percent, according to a dire new report from Citi. Benjamin Nabarro, the chief UK economist at Citi, told clients at the start of the week that the bank expects CPI inflation to reach 18.6 percent by January, in part due to soaring electricity and natural gas costs. (Related: The UK’s hyperinflationary track started to really become noticeable last year.) “Our latest estimate, updated for the further 25 percent and 7 percent rally in UK gas and electricity prices last week, points to a...

Friend of the Brett Winterble Show + author and lawyer Gordon Chang rejoined the program to discuss his article about why he thinks China is preparing for war.

Avoiding unseen food hazards is the reason people often check the dates on food packaging. And printed with the month and year is often one of a dizzying array of phrases: “best by,” “use by,” “best if used before,” “best if used by,” “guaranteed fresh until,” “freeze by” and even a “born on” label applied to some beer. People think of them as expiration dates, or the date at which a food should go in the trash. But the dates have little to do with when food expires, or becomes less safe to eat. I am a microbiologist and public...

Many consumers are committed to organic products for reasons that are more emotional than logical. They frequently define their purchasing choices in terms of what they consider to be “wholesome and natural,” which often translates to the absence of “synthetic” inputs such as fertilizer and pesticides. For some, the prohibition on “genetically modified” crops (however they might be defined) is another consideration. Sometimes, they assume that in some vague way, organic agricultural practices are better for the planet. In short, on their dinner table they want something like the farm of the idealized “Old McDonald” children’s tune that many of...

Well right now over 50% of the US is in some form of drought – the US happens to be a breadbasket region. The North Central US/Canada is not in a drought (but it was severe last year), and that area alone is responsible for a lot of our canola and wheat production. But the Russian roulette of Drought stricken areas has hit all the below at the same time in many cases, in (record breaking in some) droughts: Northern Africa, and Southern Africa is in drought right now. Central South America is in drought right now. Europe is in...

My son makes YouTube videos for a living and is sponsored by a small array of advertisers. Recently he was sponsored by a company, Jase Medical, that allows one to visit an online doctor and after answering a few simple questions, you are prescribed 5 emergency antibiotics. The antibiotics treat pneumonia, bladder infections, bio-terror, Montezuma's revenge, and wound infections. I thought this was an incredible premise/service and wanted to share with you the ability to have a potentially life-saving supply on hand in case the SHTF. I filled in the short online questionnaire and received by antibiotics in the mail...

When Beth Brown needs groceries, she often does her shopping in her own backyard. Brown estimates she's saving $400 per month on groceries by growing vegetables like lettuce, squash, tomatoes and cantaloupe. The nurse and single mom of two boys said she's trying to save everywhere she can as prices skyrocket. "The prices of food have really gone up just everywhere," Brown told CBS News. "So I have been growing a lot more vegetables to kind of keep up with that."

The United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for sustainable development informs government policies to restrict farming and transform the food systems in different parts of the world, said Alex Newman, an award-winning international journalist who has covered this issue for over a decade. The 2030 Agenda is a plan of action devised by the United Nations (U.N.) to achieve 17 sustainable development goals (SDG). The goals and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development were adopted by all UN member states in 2015. Then-Secretary General of the U.N. Ban Ki-moon called the 2030 Agenda “the global declaration of interdependence,” (pdf) Newman said in...
