Raw material shortage with paint
Leafy spurge. A noxious weed that I think has latex sap
We are cutting down rubber trees and switching to other crops since it's not profitable from few years. 🙄🙄🙄
Give the average people crumbs to fight over while the rich enjoy the entire cake.
Want to sell more of what you have? Create an artificial shortage.
As we transition this will only become more common.
It’s amazing how everything is now in a shortage. 🤔
Gnomes? 😂
Atleast we the lockdowns worked… it was worth it right?
One more blow to the US, one step closer towards world peace.
Almost all tires are made of synthetic rubber, no natural rubber needed. Styrene and Butadiene. Most Americans have never touched real rubber.
Blah, blah, blah….just another bs scam by the msm
If people would recycle more this would not be happening
Well guess we will just have to start using flying cars now.. shucks🤪
Well, I guess we're done for.
We had our shot, we blew it. In about ten years… total
collapse on every front. Enjoy it while it lasts folks. The generations before us had a party… the bill is due and we got stuck with it. but we knew it was coming.
2026 sounds so futuristic for an early 2000s kid like me yet it actually is just 4 years and a few months away
The world has known since the 1846 Northern European potato famine not bet the farm on one crop. Not only did Thai farmers bet it all on one crop…they doubled down and planted cloned rubber trees which provide no genetic diversity to fight diseases.
I thought this was going to be about a ripped condom
Masks are the latest cult fashion item. Buy them and wear them proudly so the wolves can spot the sheep!!!
And now no workers! Make America work again!
It is farting.
Really you need a $1bn vertical farm to grow dandelion!?!? They grow in everyone's yard everywhere!! Just grow them outside and let the bees enjoy some damn flowers you control freak
Uh oh. Back to Vietnam eh?
stores should resell back rubber made stuffs like flipflops that doesnt sell much or is not that essential for the day to day needs to the recyclers.
consumers or citizens in general should stop using larger vehicles like family cars when going to places like supermarket etc, instead should convert to smaller vehicles like scooters , bicycles etc this would lessen not only the consumption of fuel but also rubber.
just focus the money flow for the designs to be manufactured per season and per country i guess?
some manufacturers should be focused on some countries.
im not that fluent on english but what i mean is , if adidas has better stuffs for winter then what else? is it good for rainy days too?
how about stuffs for work? like being a carpenter? or being an electrician?
then why dont adidas pull those smaller companies in as partners or collaboration?
and if its for winter then adidas should focus on those countries with winter ONLY.
and let Nike or so focus on higher temperature countries.
which is hard specially the current state the whole worlds is at.
a very competitive situation it is for our world but if only we could learn to calm down and cooperate with each other we could be greater.
and yes, that means there will be … a competition for a certain position.
cause that means everyone should be able to maintain and be contented with what they have, stocks etc will not be that reliable as it was.
modern Egypt 👀
Again, thanks Democrats. Please vote conservative and save our country.
