1/2 A growing number of folks realize that California is where they get their produce from & it's been slammed by forest fires, floods, etc. so they are going to grow their own veggies this year and escape the high prices in the grocery chain stores.

2/2 An estimated two-thirds of all produce consumed in Canada is imported from the U.S. accounting for approximately 37% of Canada's fresh fruit imports in 2021. California exported $4.8 Billion to Canada, including: $1.7B in fruits and nuts & $203M in vegetables and roots.

I live on a Gulf Island where the best weather conditions found in Canada are found so I purchase FRESH produce from organic farmers at farm gates and at Farmer's Markets twice weekly. Hubby also grows some of our veggies.
Are you now or will you be growing your own produce?

Dopo il freddo di fine febbraio, come sta andando il deficit di risorse idriche nivali in #Italia? Le nevicate non hanno cambiato molto, infatti stimiamo ancora un deficit del -63% 👇 Ad oggi abbiamo circa 1/3 della neve degli ultimi anni. @DPCgov
Un thread🧵👇

👆 L'avete notato? A fine gennaio eravamo in una situazione molto migliore.
Cosa è successo da allora?
A febbraio abbiamo avuto un periodo di caldo significativo, che ha esaurito circa 1/3 delle risorse idriche nivali.
Lo abbiamo imparato: temperature calde = meno neve...

Non solo per le #Alpi italiane il deficit è significativo. La maggior parte degli #Appennini è tornata in deficit dopo un gennaio nevoso. Anche qui, temperature così elevate non possono che portare ad una fusione della neve più rapida del solito e a un accumulo più breve.

After some cold weather at the end of February, how is the deficit in #snow water resources doing across #Italy? Snowfalls did not change much, as we still estimate a total deficit of -63% 👇 This means we have about 1/3 of recent-year snow for this date. @DPCgov
A thread 🧵👇

👆 Did you notice that?
We were in a much better spot at the end of January.
What has happened since then?
Well, we experienced a significant warm spell in February, which depleted about 1/3 of snow water resources.
We learned this: warm temperatures = less snow…

It is not only the Italian #Alps that are experiencing a significant, profound deficit. Most of the #Apennines are back to the deficit zone after a snowy January. Again, such high temperatures can only lead to faster than usual snowmelt and very short accumulation.

#AgeOfDeception: “#Washington is filled with politicians and organizations that hyperventilate about government #debt and the burden it imposes on our children, but they ignore the burdens imposed by #patent and #copyright monopolies granted by the government.”

“Suppose that we were spending another $50 billion a year on medical #research in order to replace #patent supported research, and all the findings were placed in the #public domain so that all #drugs were sold as #generics. ...

... The annual #deficit would be $50 billion higher due to the additional spending on research, but we would save $380 billion a year on drugs due to generic pricing.”

Fred Ryan (Republican) publisher of the @washingtonpost pays editors who reinforce Republican-friendly narratives. Let’s walk through todays A1 piece abt the impending preventable catastrophe of #DebtCeiling

PS subscribe to local journalism instead
🧵
@Sulliview @MarkJacob16

☝️ @TonyRomm +editor construct a frame that the Republican hostage-taking of the US economy is a responsible and legitimate strategy.
“Urgency for a deal” when Republicans are not acting in good faith or consistency.
Next Tony emphasizes the frame that the deficit is “bothsides”

Tony parrots GOP disinformation “two years of Dem control”. Is this true @TonyRomm ? If yes let us know you think so. If not why be a stenographer?

Oh and it’s most legitimate economists warning - not only the Biden administration.

Siamo a metà febbraio e sono passate altre due settimane di maratona per la stagione 2023 della #neve in Italia. ❄️
Aria fredda ma condizioni complessivamente asciutte, soprattutto sulle Alpi... Come sta andando il #deficit italiano di risorse idriche nivali?
Leggi il thread👇🧵

Non abbiamo visto molte nuove nevicate dopo la fine di gen. Al momento, quindi, stimiamo che le risorse idriche nivali su scala nazionale siano la metà rispetto al 2011-21 (deficit -45%).
A livello nazionale, le condizioni rimangono simili al 2022, un anno di #siccità rilevante👇

Un riepilogo su questo grafico 👆
L'asse X è il tempo, dall'autunno all'estate.
L'asse Y è lo Snow Water Equivalent, cioè quanta acqua abbiamo nella neve (più è alta, meglio è).
Linea nera: mediana per il periodo 2011-2021.
Linea rossa: 2023.
Linea tratteggiata: 2022.

Banca d’Italia - Nei dodici mesi terminanti in novembre 2022 il saldo di conto corrente è risultato in #deficit per 15,6 miliardi di €uro (-0,8 per cento del PIL), da un surplus di 62,9 miliardi nello stesso periodo dell'anno precedente.⚡️👀

1/7

PDF: bancaditalia.it/pubblicazioni/…

2/ In Italia, nel corso del 2022, il valore delle importazioni ha superato ampiamente quello delle esportazioni.

Quanto accaduto alle merci ha penalizzato l’equilibrio dei conti con l’estero.

PDF - bnl.it/images/bnl/sco…

3/ Il saldo di parte corrente è divenuto negativo, risentendo anche dell’evoluzione della componente dei servizi e di quella dei redditi.
Il sensibile aumento delle importazioni italiane non è solo un problema di prezzi, ma nasconde anche una criticità legata alle quantità.

1/n La gran parte della domanda di gas è per il nostro riscaldamento.
Se la #Russia taglia tutto definitivamente, abbiamo deficit per 28bcm. La IEA ci dice che per ogni grado in meno del nostro #termostato in inverno risparmiamo 10 bcm di #gas.

2/n Ridurre i nostri termostati di 3 gradi (fino a 19 gradi, se parliamo dell'Europa in toto) colmerebbe questo deficit senza ulteriori rotture di scatole.
No prezzi alle stelle, no sussidi alle bollette, no ulteriore #deficit

3/n Siamo disposti? Uno studio del '82 certifica che, nel '78, in UK la temperatura media di un abitazione in inverno fosse 16 gradi. 19 gradi mi sembra un buon compromesso, considerata la situazione attuale

🧵While it’s popular these days for Republicans to bash the #Manchin-Schumer proposal, look closer and there are things that pro-energy conservatives should like in the deal. Specifically:

1. #Drilling: significant increases in onshore and offshore drilling.

2. #Renewables: wind and solar subsidies/tax credits are contingent upon the granting of drilling permits (protecting against a Biden Admin "bait & switch").

3. #Nuclear: funding for nuclear investments.

4. #Carbon: funding & rules for carbon capture—allowing firms to keep current power plants open longer—giving the US a longer runway to reach its "energy transition" goals.

5. #Batteries: requires high levels of local material in production—curbing incentives to build in China.

The Inflation Reduction Act includes a 15 percent corporate minimum tax, drug price controls, IRS tax enforcement, and a tax hike on carried interest to pay for increased spending on energy and health insurance subsidies as well as deficit reduction.

[THREAD]

The on-again-off-again negotiations over the proposed #BuildBackBetter tax increases on corporations and high-income earners appears to be… on again.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) is now expressing support for something called the #InflationReductionAct. (2/9)

Next week, the Senate is scheduled to begin voting on a reconciliation bill that may put all of the #BuildBackBetter tax and spending increases on the table. (3/9)

Pakistan’s Budget Isn’t Enough to Unlock IMF Loan, Citi Says - @business
#Pakistan’s plan to trim its #deficit by slashing spending may not be enough to convince the International Monetary Fund to resume its loan program, according to economists at Citigroup Inc.

#economy

The tax-to-GDP ratio is budgeted to rise to 9.2% of gross domestic product in the year starting July 1 from 8.6%, which seems low versus Pakistan’s emerging market peers and its own history. Interest payments are estimated to consume about 44% of revenue.

Thread: in 10mins il mio pensiero su #Cina, #Inflazione, #Biden, #Taiwan,#SupplyChain #Lockdown #Comunismo #Ucraina #Russia...insomma tutto con @marina_valerio di @classcnbc

Che ne pensate?

1) #Cina: Impatto sistemico su economia è limitato perché #ZeroCovid è a rotazione

2) #Inflazione viene da due fattori recenti, #Lockdown in #Cina con ritardi nella #SupplyChain, e prezzi #energia che salgono per la guerra e per le #Sanzioni

Ma il terzo e più fondamentale è l'ovvio risultato di un decennio a tassi zero con monete stampate e mal investite

3) La tensione #Cina #USA è molto più intensa con #Biden di quanto lo fosse con #Trump perché si è aggiunto un fattore filosofico di sfida tra due modelli e di stadi di sviluppo disallineati

#Trump sarebbe stato invece ben soddisfatto di una risoluzione del #deficit commerciale

I.Petit #Thread sur ce que nous apprend la politique de la Banque Centrale de Russie depuis le 22 février.
La BCR a été sous pression du fait des sanctions et du blocage d’une partie de ses réserves. (280 mlrd de USD sur 646). L’objectif était de provoquer une crise du change

II.Elle a réagi (a) en montant les taux d’intérêts pour « tuer » la spéculation et (b) en instaurant un contrôle des changes avec des restrictions importantes sur les achats de devises des particuliers et des entreprises. Elle centralise les recettes en devises (compte « K »)

III.Le résultat est que, après une forte dépréciation du rouble, ce dernier s’est redressé : il se déprécie de 58% du 22/2 au 11/03 et s’apprécie de 61% du 11/03 au 9/04. En 51 jours la crise est « digérée » alors que les occidentaux s’attendaient à une chute catastrophique.

I mean from a Self-declared "#Libertarian", who seriously isn't he's #SocialConservative at best, it's not hard to dig up dirt on @RandPaul of his Voting Records. Like the 2016 Tax Bill that gave more money to the #Rich, Supports Banning #Abortion (which isn't Libertarian),...

Opposes #LGBTQIA Rights like Same Sex Marriage & wanted it to be banned, Rand is inconsistent on #MilitarySpending of sometimes leaning to not for it or for it in offensive wars (which many Libertarians call that out & believe in Defense of a Direct Threat of an Attack)...
