Oh boy. Plastics? Well, we need less of those anyways (and maybe actually recycle them?). Pharmaceuticals? Yeah, that's a BIG problem! Maybe manufacture them in smaller factories locally. As for fertilizer? Let's see... #Urea, #nitrogen and #ammonia -- all can come from urine! And sulphur? Grow more garlic and onions rather than use oil production byproducts. WTF!
"Around 30% of fertilizer products go through the Strait of Hormuz. Quatar is the world’s biggest producer of urea, a key input to fertiliser manufacture. The region also produces around 35% of the urea and 23% of the ammonia, another feedstock for nitrogenous fertiliser, which is exported globally. Sulphur, another component of fertiliser manufacture, is also produced in the region as a by-product of oil production."

The Hormuz ‘dry run’: life without oil and petrochemicals
Reposted from Northwest Bylines Mark H Burton With transport through the Strait of Hormuz at a virtual standstill, we get a picture of how oil and petrochemicals are part of our life The supply chain problems arising from the unprovoked USA/Israeli attack on Iran are becoming clear. They are multiple, affecting not just oil and natural gas, 20% of which passes through Hormuz, but also the many things dependent…

In this pre-election period, it is vital that we stand together to defend our #NHS from those who seek to undermine its core values

A fascinating story.....
"No big English town has a history quite as short as Middlesbrough’s.
In 1801 the population was 25, living in four houses on 500 acres of bleak salt marsh south of the river Tees."

So over the last couple of days electoral reform has come up a lot in my timeline and as an ex-employee of Charter 88 (the constitutional campaign group of the 80s/90s) of course I'm always happy t be talking about (and trying to) change the UK' voting system....
So here is Sean Danaher (following the Electoral Reform Society's logic) setting out why, if we are to change Single Transferable Vote is the best bet....
Enjoy
