What the Iran War Means for Global Food Prices (Bloomberg)
|
|
|
Bloomberg Opinion columnist Javier Blas says the war in Iran, and the blockage of the Strait of Hormuz, has prompted warnings about another bout of global food inflation similar to the one that followed Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Despite those fears, the agricultural market isn't at risk today, at least in the short term. Oil prices may be soaring, but the world's plentiful food stocks are helping to keep commodity prices in check. However, if the US doesn't find an off-ramp from the war, rising energy and fertilizer costs could eventually push the farming industry to a breaking point. Speaking to Stephen Carroll on Bloomberg Radio Javier Blas says we're not there yet though. (Source: Bloomberg)...

′I always considered social media evil′: big tobacco whistleblower on tech′s addictive products (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Jeffrey Stephen Wigand revealed how tobacco companies targeted children; now he sees similar marketing by big techA key whistleblower in the tobacco industry's landmark trials of the 1990s has been watching big tech's recent court battles closely. Jeffrey Stephen Wigand, a biochemist who helped reveal how tobacco companies targeted children and hid just how addictive cigarettes were, has been struck with a feeling of familiarity. Last week's verdict in a major social media trial that Meta and YouTube deliberately designed addictive products has only strengthened comparisons to the legal crackdown on big tobacco. Wigand sees it, too. His first thought, as he learned about the litigation in California, was that social media companies, through their advertisements, were trying to addict children – much like the tobacco industry did.A Los Angeles jury found Meta and YouTube to be negligent last week.
