Trump Blames Biden For Bad Economy News!! Says 'BE PATIENT' WTF?

8.23 min. mark: Dave Neal's informed that #MohsenMahdawi has been released 
9.24 min. mark : A drtone flew by, and recorded people sending an S.O.S. at a detention centre because they're being sent to #ElSalvador without #DueProcess
Trump asks people in the US to wait and is ofcourse blaming Biden. I don't think people will believe him. Also the economic downturn is just beginning, in a few days/weeks companies will notice that containers from China are not arriving, more store shelves will be empty, etcetera.
No surprises here and this is just the beginning, the absence of some chinese goods, because chinese containers are not arriving, will become visible in a few days in the stores.

The White House has put itself and the country in a bad situation but doesn’t realize it yet.
Around April 10th China to USA trade shut down.
It takes ~30 days for containers to go from China to LA.
45 to Houston by sea, 45 to Chicago by train.
55 to New York by sea.
That means that there are no economic effects of what was done on April 10th until about May 10th.
Around that time (it’s already started to happen) trucking work is going to dry up. Warehouses will start doing layoffs because no labor is needed to unload containers and some products will be out of stock, reducing the need for shipping labor.
All this will start in the Los Angeles area.
After about 2 weeks, it’ll start hitting Chicago and Houston.
Let’s say the White House, after 3 weeks, changes its mind, on May 31st.
“This isn’t working out like we thought it would. Tariffs back to 0.”
Let’s say China says “bygones be bygones, we’ll go back to how things were”.
Let’s say every factory in China that got screwed by their orders being cancelled says the same thing “no problem, we’ll make and ship”.

It’s almost like we’re speeding towards a brick wall but the driver of the car doesn’t see it yet.
By the time he does, it’ll be too late to hit the brakes.

The International Maritime Organization (IMO), a UN body that regulates global shipping, approved new regulations to cut greenhouse gas emissions across the maritime sector—one of the most polluting and least regulated industries on Earth.
#shipping #pollution #environment #climate #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis
Countries agree on the first ever binding targets for global shipping emissions!
The International Maritime Organization has secured agreement on mandatory emissions targets requiring shipping (responsible for around 3% of global emissions) to reach net-zero by 2050.
Starting in 2028, ships that exceed emissions thresholds will face financial penalties up to $380 per ton of CO₂.
This is a big deal - it sends a market-wide signal that efficiency pays, and unlocks an estimated $40 billion in annual carbon revenues, one of the largest pools of climate finance ever created. #shipping #climate #environment #ClimateChange #pollution #decarbonization
The U.S. may impose levies on Chinese vessels docking at U.S. ports, which could further escalate the trade war between the world’s two biggest economies. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/04/18/us-china-ships-port-fees/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #us #donaldtrump #china #shipping
Major nations agree on first-ever global fee on greenhouse gases with plan that targets shipping
"The agreement, reached with the United States notably absent, 
is expected to be formally adopted at an October meeting to take effect in 2027. The IMO, which regulates international shipping, also set a marine fuel standard to phase in cleaner fuels. "

Hey #history and #maritime and #shipping expert people:
Here's a dataset about #whaling with some variables I don't understand (neither do the students using it for an intro #statistics project). If you have any insight into what these variables/terms mean, will you share that?
The data are here:
"Beyond the net-zero target – and interim emissions targets of up to a 30% emissions reduction by 2030 and up to 80% by 2040 – the 2023 negotiations left crucial elements undecided.
First, a measure to bring in an emissions pricing system that could both encourage ships to cut emissions and raise money for climate action.
The second measure is a global marine fuel standard that would gradually phase in low-carbon fuels for ships around the world."
