Environmental risk weighs heavily on the possible rewards of deep sea mining 

By William Yancey Brown

Despite growing political momentum to advance deep sea mining for critical minerals, the practice remains at odds with existing US and international environmental laws. Current proposals fail to meet legal standards, and the potential for irreversible damage to marine ecosystems raises serious concerns.

Make critical mineral spending matter this time  

By Ashley Zumwalt-Forbes

The United States has a crucial opportunity to translate large-scale funding into critical mineral stockpiling and resilient supply chains—but only if Congress structures spending to create durable markets. Without clear demand signals, real commercial offtakes, and price stability, proposed funding risks falling short of delivering on its potential.

Can Nord Stream really rise from the dead?

Despite recent discussions between Moscow and Washington over restarting the Nord Stream pipelines, legal, financial, and political hurdles make reopening them improbable.

Norwegian PM explains how NATO can help combat climate change

By Om Arvind

Solberg admitted that she doesn’t think “we will solve this by our defense part of NATO,” but stressed that NATO leaders can help spur greater action. “What we really have to do,” she said, “is [to] stop climate change [and] make sure that we invest now instead of having to invest a lot in the future to work on the damages. It is much less costly to prevent climate change than it will be to adapt to it – on all levels of our society.”

Is Rosneft undermining “maximum pressure” on Venezuela and Iran as Trump looks away?

By Matthew Bryza

US President Donald Trump is conducting policies of “maximum pressure” on two countries, Venezuela and Iran. In Venezuela, Russia’s state-owned oil company, Rosneft, actively undercuts this US policy by helping them circumvent Washington’s tough economic sanctions. Why doesn't Washington apply broad sanctions against the giant Russian company?
