regarding the #oil #resources #venezuela discussion, here is a thing to really have a hard think about.

- the US easy to get, cheap oil is on its way out, it peaked in the 70s, US conventional oil fields as a group are in terminal decline

- US production has been sustained by unconventional resources of which all have plateaued in gas production, which is the driver of this sort of oil & gas production, EXEMPT from the permian basin, which is predicted to peak 2026-2028 and then enter a slow long decline

the phrase that "all is connected" is not a fortune cookie platitude #systems people repeat like a mantra in order to sound smart. it is an adequate description of the world we have created. it is how complex systems function. that is this "world order".

it always came at a cost. maintaining complexity requires energy, which is fossil energy, in our case.

This is at the heart of a key Proutist idea - proper utilization of resources. Caring for the earth (and, we would add, putting economic power in the hands of people, not corps) benefits everyone. #earth #resources #economic https://www.optimistdaily.com/2026/01/investing-in-planetary-health-could-unlock-20-trillion-a-year-by-2070-says-un-report/

“We should expect more such climate unrest. One study from scientists at #PusanNationalUniversity, South Korea, (Christian Franzke, a climate scientist and project leader at the ‘Institute for Basic #Science Center for #ClimatePhysics’) published at the end of 2025, forecasts that three-quarters of the world’s most #drought-prone regions will be at risk of “day zero” by the end of the century, and a third of them will be hit before 2030.” — James Meadway

does anyone know if they are studies similar to Elinor Ostrom on Common Pool Resources but applied to knowledge resources instead of physical resources?

#ostrom #commons #knowledge #resources

Following the #US attack on #Venezuela – & #Trump’s transparent play for the #OPEC state’s vital #resources - some of America’s staunchest #allies have shown increasing concern about the undoing of the #WorldOrder.

At stake is an international system that has taken shape over the past 8 decades largely under US primacy & though subject to occasional reversals had helped stave off worldwide #conflict. It has come to be based on #FreeTrade, rule of #law & respect for territorial integrity.

What's really behind the Heritage foundation's neo-imperialism? Why are they encouraging cheeto to invade various nations?

Peak everything. The resource wars are coming & Project 2025 wants to make sure the US gets them.

They have no intention of letting any "liberals" give the global south their fair share or put limits on usage. Only rich white male christians deserve resources. The rest can die or be slaves.
