London Socialite Annabelle Neilson Dead At 49
London Socialite & McQueen Muse Annabelle Neilson Dead At 49

Update: According to tabloid Radar Online, Scotland Yard has yet to confirm the cause of death, though a spokeswoman from the Westminster Coroner's Court says Annabelle Neilson's passing is currently believed to be related to a stroke.
Her longtime friend Kate Moss posted an Instagram tribute to Neilson, on Tuesday, captioned with a broken heart emoji.
On Monday, People magazine confirmed Ladies of London star and former model Annabelle Neilson has died. She was 49.
The British socialite was last seen at the wedding of her ex-boyfriend Edward Spencer Churchill, the Duke of Marlborough's half-brother, on July 8. Her body was reportedly found in her Chelsea, London apartment on Thursday, July 12. Her cause of death, at the time of publishing, remains unknown, though police are not treating it as suspicious.
Before reality television, Neilson walked the runways alongside pals Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell during the heyday of her best friend, the late designer Lee 'Alexander' McQueen. Of her relationship to McQueen (to which she was his muse), Neilson told the Daily Mail in 2015, "He was my brother, my boyfriend, my soulmate. Most of the time people called me Mrs. McQueen." Her last reflections on her closest confidant can be heard in McQueen (out July 20), the long-awaited documentary on the legendary designer who committed suicide in 2010.
Neilson's time on the Ladies of London saw her promoting her series of children's books, The Me Me Me's, which chronicled the rollercoaster of human emotions, like Dreamy Me or Angry Me, with the goal of helping children get in touch with their feelings. Her role on the show may not have included the most drama, but her reaction to it — which was more reclusive than the reality franchise may call for — made her the most level-headed of the Ladies. Neilson spoke about her struggles with openness on the show.
From 1994 to 1997, Neilson was married to billionaire heir Nathaniel Rothschild. Their marriage, though brief, was wrought with unflattering tabloid headlines. Neilson was the daughter of Marquesa Campus di Santinelli, which saw her a gilded childhood. Her cousin was the Earl of Warwick and her paternal grandmother was the second cousin of the late Queen Mother. By the age of 16, Neilson had developed a heroin addiction, which she says saved her, "because otherwise I would have killed myself."

Tutu & Mandela: sometimes at odds, united against apartheid

Johannesburg – Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela forged a lifelong bond fighting together to end apartheid in South Africa, even if the two icons did not always agree.
Tutu's death on Sunday at 90 plunged South Africa into mourning, eight years after the country lost Mandela, its iconic first black president, following a long battle with illness.
The two men differed in many aspects from stature to tactics, but both separately became Nobel Peace laureates for their roles in ending white-majority rule.
"They had a complex relationship based on a similar sense of justice and a true friendship that allowed them to disagree on many things," said political analyst William Gumede.
ALSO READ | Desmond Tutu in his own words
Tutu, a short and charming Anglican clergyman committed to non-violence, used his religious robes as a shield against the apartheid regime.
Mandela, a tower of calm strength 13 years his senior, instead turned to armed struggle against the country's rulers, becoming South Africa's "public enemy number one".
Both men at different points in their lives lived a stone's throw away from each other on the same street in Johannesburg's Soweto township.
But they did not meet until they were adults, when Mandela was asked to judge a debate competition in which Tutu was participating before the activist stood trial for treason and sabotage in 1963 and was handed a life sentence.
'Major weakness'
After Mandela emerged from jail 27 years later as apartheid crumbled, he stayed at Tutu's home on his first night of freedom.
A black and white image of the grinning pair taken around that time soon became iconic.
When Mandela became South Africa's first black president in 1994, Tutu coined the term "Rainbow Nation" to describe the country.
At Mandela's request, he retired in 1996 to become head of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, embarking on a harrowing journey to reveal the horrors of apartheid.
But as the country transitioned to multiracial democracy, the archbishop did not hesitate to call out his old friend.

Tutu despaired at the high salaries, cars and generous benefits ministers enjoyed during Mandela's single five-year term.
In a 2003 interview, Tutu said Mandela's one flaw was "his quite extraordinary degree of loyalty" when perhaps he should have shown certain ministers the door while president.
"I think that was a major weakness in someone who is practically flawless," he said.
But if he was ever ruffled, Mandela continued to value his friend's opinion.
"Madiba respected Tutu enough to go back as a friend and ask for his counsel," said Sello Hatang, head of the Nelson Mandela Foundation, using the late president's clan name.
'Loved and treasured'
Tutu's weariness towards politicians from the ruling African National Congress (ANC) only increased under Mandela's successors.
He criticised Thabo Mbeki's handling of the AIDS crisis and swore never again to vote for the party over rampant corruption under Jacob Zuma.
Relations had soured so much that when Mandela died in 2013 the ANC did not invite Tutu to the burial.
It was only after Tutu objected publicly that he was able to speak at a memorial service in Soweto's Soccer City stadium for the man he said he "loved and treasured".
The archbishop lauded Mandela for his commitment to creating a non-racist society and for his lack of bitterness towards his former oppressors.
ALSO READ | 'I have prepared for my death': Tutu on assisted dying
He held many fond memories, recounting that Mandela spoke excitedly about his Mozambican wife Graca Machel, whom he married in 1998.
"His face is glowing, he's one of the best advertisements for love and marriage," he said.
In a tribute to Tutu on Twitter, South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa used Mandela's own words to describe the archbishop's impact on South African life.
"President Nelson Mandela said of him that his was a voice that was 'sometimes strident, often tender, never afraid, and seldom without humour'," he wrote.
Mandela was a fervent admirer.
"I believe that God is waiting for the archbishop. He is waiting to welcome Desmond Tutu with open arms," Mandela said.
"If Desmond gets to heaven and is denied entry, then none of the rest of us will get in!"

CLA is Conjugated Linoleic Acid. It's a fatty acid typically located in vegetable oils, dairy products and also beef, and also it is the most preferred Omega-6 fatty acids.
CLA Safflower Oil originates from the safflower plant, specifically the oil. In this form, it is really potent as well as can be loaded into a little capsule for simple intake.
Scientists have located that CLA Safflower Oil helps to destroy stored fat while enhancing lean muscular tissue mass. CLA is something that our body can not produce however needs.
CLA Safflower was launched at the start of 2016 and also the product is exclusively offered online as softgel pills. The product is made in a FDA registered research laboratory so it is particular that the firm behind the item is US based.
Maintaining your body's cells working at their maximum performance is simply one way that CLA Safflower Oil help in weight reduction.
CLA Safflower Oil is an appetite suppressant, so you will certainly really feel satisfied with less food while taking it. This causes a decline in calories that adds up to weight loss, yet you don't seem like you're depriving yourself!
Finally, this omega-6 oil is revealed to enhance metabolic rate. Your body burns more calories throughout the day without you needing to do anything other than taking a simple capsule.
Various research studies have actually been performed to establish the performance of CLA safflower oil when it pertains to weight management. According to a scientific study published in the Bioscience, Biotechnology and Biochemistry Journal, a substance known as acetic acid which exists in apple cider vinegar can help you with fat burning. CLA safflower oil is seen to have the exact same impact on your body.
One more research in the International Journal of Obesity likewise discovered that CLA safflower supplements assist in subduing your appetite. This is crucial in battling obesity given that it assists you to stay clear of overindulging.
An additional research performed by a clinical assistant professor of medicine at UNC-Chapel Hill School of Medicine discovered that overweight individuals who consumed modest amounts of safflower oil every day lost a considerable amount of weight after some time. The study involved 55 individuals that were closely checked for a number of months.
Beyond lipo, there is no other means to minimize body fat than the 3 approaches from above, and CLA Safflower Oil accomplishes all 3.
It's simple to get confused when CLA Safflower Oil is referred to as a fatty acid. Eating dietary fat is not what makes an individual gain fat. You could consume just protein and still gain fat. The reason a person puts on weight or gains fat is that they are consuming much more calories than their body can burn.
However, foods high in fat are likewise high in calories, which is why they are to be consumed sparingly. But that does not imply they are to be stayed clear of. Fats are vital to nearly every bodily function, and also a number of them are really helpful for weight reduction.
Safflowers are in the very same flower family as daisies, so if you have a known allergy to daisies, you would wish to stay clear of CLA Safflower Oil. Those with a ragweed allergic reaction may likewise experience allergy signs and symptoms, though it is not a sure thing.
CLA Safflower Oil is not recommended for usage while pregnant due to the fact that it may bring on uterine contractions at the onset of labor.
CLA Safflower Oil enhances the risk of hemorrhaging when integrated with the use of blood thinners, pain killers, and also non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Talk to your doctor if you are taking any of these medications.
Most people tend to think that CLA as well as safflower oil are the same but the reality is that these are two different components.
CLA is a mixture of roughly 28 positional as well as geometric isomers of the linoleic acid which is an essential omega-6 fatty acid. CLA is mainly found in dairy and also meat items. CLA is known to minimize the complete body mass which helps in the reduction of BMI. It also assists in maintaining insulin levels in the body.
Safflower oil, on the various other hand, is extracted from the safflower plant. The oil is primarily used for cooking functions. The oil is drawn from the seeds of the safflower plant. Safflower is normally an excellent weight-loss supplement if you are only thinking about doing away with the abdominal} fat, however CLA influences your overall body mass. To be efficient, the oil needs} to include high amounts of CLA and so CLA need to be acquired and also refined.
Although CLA safflower oil appears to be the most effective option for managing weight, it includes various drawbacks associated with careless or excessive consumption of the oil. Making use of CLA safflower can be useful to your total health and wellness but taking in excessive of it can result in weight gain as opposed to fat burning.
Since the interest in the benefits of CLA safflower oil is only starting to climb, a great deal of research is still being carried out to determine what kind of quantity is suitable depending upon the person's gender, case history, age, to name a few aspects. This is the key reason that a lot of the supplements have the asterisk (*) sign next to their daily value.
Overall, if you are a healthy person, the one to three grams of CLA is considered safe as well as one of the most recommended dose for routine administration. Nonetheless, if you choose to consume the CLA in its all-natural form as your cooking choice, after that see to it that you maintain your everyday dose to at most 3 tbsps.
Seek advice from your doctor prior to taking CLA safflower supplements if you're under the age of 18 years of ages and/or have a history of medical concerns such as diabetes, blood clotting, stomach ulcers, as well as high blood pressure.

How 'self-pay' is shrinking the English NHS by stealth
One hospital trust last week announced a 'pause' its controversial MyChoice scheme after an outcry. But Warrington is not alone in expanding such self-pay schemes. What's going on?
Jenny Shepherd
Peter Byrne/PA Wire/PA Images
Warrington and Halton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust's Chief Executive Mel Pickup last week said she had "paused" the so-called MyChoice scheme.
The scheme was widely condemned after the Trust published adverts stating:
"Did you know that some hospital procedures previously available may no longer be available on the NHS? However, with the MyChoice service at Warrington and Halton hospitals, you have the option to self-fund some procedures. Self-funded procedures – by the NHS, for the NHS."
Local NHS bosses (Clinical Commissioning Groups in the Cheshire and Merseyside Sustainability and Transformation Partnership) no longer routinely fund a range of treatments. The Mirror reported last week that 20 of these treatments appeared on the lengthy MyChoice list of 71 private treatments.
As many have objected, it's not a "choice" if you don't have £2,479 to pay for knee arthroscopy, £1,577 to pay for a Carpal Tunnel Syndrome operation or £1,646 for insertion of grommets - all operations that NHS England last year ordered Clinical Commissioning Groups not to routinely fund.
The "MyChoice" scheme also includes operations like hip replacement surgery (costing £7,060 to self-pay patients), that the NHS still routinely funds without any requirement that Clinical Commissioning Groups give prior approval.
West Lancashire MP Rosie Cooper has called on Mel Pickup, the Hospital Chief Executive responsible for the My Choice scheme, to stand down from her role as head of the Cheshire and Merseyside Sustainability and Transformation Plan.
The hospitals say the "pause" is so that they can make sure that the scheme will not interfere with NHS-funded operations. They claim that, "so far no NHS patients have been impacted."
But how did we get here?
The MyChoice scheme has been around for several years. Back in 2013, Warrington and Halton Hospitals were amongst the one in six of hospitals in England that introduced new payment options including MyChoice self-pay operations. As now, the claim was that this gave patients access to treatments that the NHS no longer routinely funded - in the case of Warrington and Halton Hospitals at the time, varicose vein surgery was advertised.
Unlike traditional private patients, 'self-funded' patients pay at cost, rather than the higher rates traditionally charged, and are treated in the same facilities as NHS patients.
The implementation of the 2012 Health and Social Care Act allowed Foundation Trusts to earn up to 49% of their income from commercial sources such as private patient schemes. At the same time, NHS underfunding started to bite, with a projected £30bn funding shortfall between 2011-2015 identified as a "challenge", and further funding shortfalls since.
Since then, alarmed patients have been finding that a range of procedures is no longer normally funded by the NHS.
They have either had to go without treatment, accept substitute NHS-funded treatments that they have found less clinically effective - or self-pay for operations if they have the money.
The process is now accelerating – boosted, it would seem, by national policies recommending the withdrawal of NHS routine funding for a range of procedures erroneously described as having 'low clinical value'. This has already significantly reduced the number of these operations that the NHS provides, and that is set to continue.
Local NHS commissioners in Cheshire and Merseyside claim that the operations they no longer routinely fund are only of value in the right clinical circumstances. But as campaigners pointed out to NHS England at their Leeds consultation event on withdrawing routine funding for 17 procedures, this is true of all operations.
So why start withdrawing routine funding for some of them?
Local commissioners also claim to have run "significant public engagement and consultation" on their local cuts. But although a public consultation in the Warrington area ended on 29th May 2019, a local resident said the handful of public meetings had been "mainly held in office hours when everyone's at work" and that the publicity about them "did not make it clear, the significance of the consultation, or the proposals."
Their "Criteria-Based Clinical Treatment policy", which identifies treatments they no longer routinely fund, states, "It is evident that the need and demand for healthcare is greater than the resources available to a society to meet it."
Evident to whom? The sixth richest country in the world is perfectly able to provide a universal, comprehensive health service. Particularly when the NHS costs a smaller share of the Gross Domestic Product, compared with health services in comparable countries.
This is the lie of austerity. And it gets worse…
The ethical dilemma at the heart of NHS 'self-pay' schemes
If it's wrong to expose patients to the risk of surgery for limited clinical benefits, how can Warrington and Halton consultants possibly justify offering such operations to patients whom the local NHS commissioners have refused to fund?
Conversely, if the consultants (and the GPs who refer the patients to them) judge that patients will benefit from these operations, the NHS should pay - not the patients.
I put this conundrum to both Warrington and Halton hospitals and Warrington Clinical Commissioning Group, who said, "other than aesthetic treatments which are not funded by the NHS, there should be no condition for which there is a health benefit to treatment which would go unfunded…The [Cheshire and Merseyside Criteria Based Clinical Treatment] policies do not require the Trust to charge for any treatment or to offer treatment not meeting clinical criteria."
But a Warrington and Halton hospitals Executive said, "The Trust considers that there is still scope for an individualised clinical judgement. There may be differences between patients not covered by the commissioning guidelines…The CCG criteria are based on a national evidence-base. MyChoice was developed in response to that document of guidelines to give patients more choice and in recognition of individualised patient differences locally."
This makes no sense. The Foundation Trust appears to be suggesting that there's some sensible clinical reason why national criteria don't actually apply to Warrington patients. Meanwhile, the CCG are saying they would fund all operations whenever the consultant identifies demonstrable clinical benefit to the patient.
So either Warrington hospital (and others going down this route) is wrong, or the criteria CCGs are following are wrong.
Furthermore, even though Warrington's advert says MyChoice is about procedures that the NHS no longer routinely funds, in fact it seems to be a ragbag of operations without any discernible logic. The suspicion remains that waiting lists are a factor, with self-payment attractive to folk with dosh who don't want to stand in line. But they can't say that because it goes against the code for private patients in NHS hospitals.
Reductions in NHS operations elsewhere
The MyChoice scheme – and more generally, the expansion of private patients in the wake of recent cuts to NHS eligibility – is by no means limited to Warrington. In 2017 Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust anticipated that "Changes to Commissioning clinical thresholds [and] growth in regional and national waiting lists" could lead to an "upside" – that it could increase income from independent sector patient income. In its plans to "reconfigure" services, it aimed to maximise this growth potential, running the planned care operating theatres on three session days and 7-day services.
The Secretary of State for Health ruled that aspects of the proposed reconfiguration were not in the public interest, so that Full Business Case has been now ditched.
But Calderdale Councillor Colin Hutchinson, Co-Chair of Calderdale and Kirklees Joint Health Scrutiny Committee, warns:
"We need to watch out for any re-emergence of such plans in the next version of the Trust's Full Business Case. Underfunding of hospitals is forcing them to supplement their income by courting self-paying patients and colluding with reductions in the availability of NHS services. It is important that the public understand that the effect will be to stimulate the demand for health insurance and the perception that the NHS should be seen as a safety net, rather than a comprehensive service equally available to everyone."
West Yorks and Harrogate Integrated Care System, which CHFT is part of, estimates its hospitals will reduce by 40% the 17 operations that NHS England has identified as no longer routinely NHS funded.
That must amount to a significant chunk of hospital income; and the number of operations that the NHS no longer routinely funds is set to grow, as NHS England admitted in last year's "Evidence Based Interventions" consultation document.
The pressure to increase income from self-pay operations will be considerable. But ironically, in a recent study the Centre for Health and the Public Interest concluded, "A lack of clear accounting of costs makes it impossible... to say whether the NHS benefits financially from devoting resources to the treatment of private patients."
The dismantling of the NHS over the past decade has predictably led to a state of chaos overseen by unaccountable quangos.

Well, we're getting closer and closer to the opening of the new and improved Blackfly Lodge in Abaco Bahamas. Here are a few photos from our friend Ian Davis of Yellowdog Flyfishing Outfitters in Montana. Ian does a tour of the Bahamas each season to visit his Yellowdog destinations to insure that the lodges are fully functional and actually have what they say they have. Yeah, it's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it!!!!! Ian is an excellent fisherman and a very demanding businessman so you can always rely on his recommendations for a lodge.
As you can see from the pictures, Blackfly Lodge is nearing completion and final decisions are being made regarding the final functionality of Blackfly.
As Blackfly Lodge was being conceptualized by the partners, we decided to name the lodge rooms after famous fisherman rather than giving the rooms numbers. I remember a trip that I made to Haiti many, many years ago and I stayed at the Grand Hotel Olafson. It was an incredible 19th century Gothic gingerbread hotel in the middle of Port-au-Prince and at one time the original mansion of the Sam family had been a US military hospital in the thirties. At any rate, I stayed in the Sir John Gielgud Suite and I have remembered the name of that room for more than 30 years. "This is what WE should do", I thought, "since we are building a legendary fishing lodge, we should name our rooms after legendary fisherman." Why my partners let me have a room I'm not sure, but look for the Vaughn Cochran Suite where room number 8 would have been.

Energy "Realism" Is Climate Fatalism
Americans may not want to hear this, but it might be best if the US is not the country leading the world through the climate crisis.
By Sophia Kalantzakos
The planet is in peril, and things just got worse. It may seem alarmist to make such a claim when nearly all major countries have recently publicized plans to green their economies.1 The euphoria engendered by these announcements might be short-lived, however, because an explosive cocktail of global developments—and, moreover, the way they are being framed—threaten to delay effective climate action. Current geopolitical realignments, along with the global economic downturn resulting from COVID-19, bolster a familiar but narrow realist narrative: allegedly, the main engine of the global order is intense competition between nation-states to secure their interests. This realist account seems to spread quickly, just like a tantalizing rumor. Believing the world is driven only by national competition crowds out rival possibilist thinking in which actors, practices, interests, and geography can be reimagined in order to immediately respond to the greatest challenge for the global collective.
Ignoring the great stakes of the climate challenge, famed energy writer Daniel Yergin chooses to use his expertise and platform to ardently detail the obstacles that will block the replacement of fossil fuels. Taking a posture of realism, he declares: "While energy transition has become a pervasive theme all around the world, disagreement rages, both within countries and among them, on the nature of the transition: how it unfolds, how long it takes, and who pays."
Yergin's new book, The New Map: Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations, is a primer in how old prejudices—dressed up as "realism"—can derail our last-ditch efforts to save the planet. A world order in disarray—in which nation-states increasingly vie to maximize their own power—provides an ideal opening for Yergin to reassert his familiar argument: the world will, and should, continue to depend on fossil fuels. By creating "maps" of discord in geopolitics, energy, competition, and national interests, The New Map purports to offer an objective description of the current state of affairs from which to project future outcomes.
In reality, Yergin's book does nothing more than defend the status quo ante, which has for too long been saturated by fossil-fuel interests. After 430 pages, the book's main takeaway, not surprisingly, is that although the much-touted energy transition may have begun, it is still decades away. People concerned about mitigating climate change will find this book much like an unsatisfying sandwich: a tiny smear of jam pressed between two thick slices of stale bread.
Yergin's lack of faith in energy alternatives is yoked to a similar disbelief in political alternatives. The book fixates on US-China bipolar competition. Viewing the world through a bipolar lens (in which the US is one of the two titans) represents a uniquely American perspective—a Made in America perspective—that fails to recognize that multilateralism has many adherents.
More tellingly American is that Yergin entirely overlooks the European Union, one of the three largest economies in the world. It is the US's most powerful ally and closest partner. Even so, America's ability to project a narrative of contention and competition is strong. Europe, however, is already providing a concrete alternative to American exceptionalism or realism by steadfastly defending multilateralism and rules-based solutions to global problems.
Shockingly, Yergin's narrative fails to reckon with the incontrovertible reality that the climate crisis requires an immediate response. Even worse, he minimizes effective multilateral action while stoking a sense of futility. Nowhere does he attempt to offer guidance out of the climate catastrophe. It might be that Yergin thinks such guidance is impossible, but his doomsday dialectic—masquerading as realism—ensures that impossibility.
In truth, the realist frame that is the dominant Made in America narrative is ill-equipped for the complexity of this global challenge. It distracts from forging a concrete plan with as much consensus as possible; it unravels the bonds of interdependence that are both real and necessary; and it collapses all relations into a competitive and adversarial logic that is counterproductive. More dangerously, it has already drawn decarbonization and digitalization into a vortex of unrelenting bipolar competition, putting the planet in even greater peril.
Although Americans may not want to hear this, it might be best if the U.S. is not the country leading the world through the climate crisis; it does not need to be.
Increasingly, in defiance of globalization, the rhetoric of world order is framed by renationalizing narratives. These narratives—of which Yergin's is but one, though perhaps one of the most pernicious—inform the policies that fracture networks of interdependence in the name of greater autonomy. Still, the logic of retrenchment for the sake of national interests, and pitting one country against the others in the process, demonstrates a glaring lack of appreciation for what the pandemic has allowed us all to fully experience: what it means to live on "spaceship Earth."
If the story sounds eerily familiar, it is because it contains crumbs of truth. Its argument, unfortunately, is an easy sell, given our conditioning to accept national interests as solipsistic and the global order as hierarchical.
For example, Yergin's narrow focus on a protracted struggle between the US and China allows him to blithely brush past the fact that conditions have dramatically changed. In fact, friends, allies, and competitors of the US are increasingly showing reluctance to take sides. China is too big to oppose. It is already the world's second-largest economy and is expected to be first in just a few years. For the developing world, moreover, the PRC is a welcome alternative source of investment, which comes without caveats for adherence to Western norms and values in order to gain access to finance.
China has fundamentally altered the geopolitical map by turning global attention squarely toward Asia and the PRC's growing networks of trade and influence in both the developing and developed worlds. In response, for four years the Trump administration aggressively sold a narrative of bipolar competition on the strength of America's newfound energy position. China was labeled enemy number one not only domestically but also in the global order. The US began a face-off against China over industrial innovation, the tech imperium, economy and trade, and security and alliances, as well as ideological norms and values. Although the administration changed and America now seeks to rekindle its global partnerships, under President Joe Biden, the PRC remains a strategic and systemic adversary.
Faithfully mirroring this "America First bipolarism," Yergin devotes a number of chapters to geopolitics; he especially attends to the ways that the shale revolution transformed the energy map once the US became an energy baron and strengthened its economic and geopolitical power over competitors and allies. He then artfully scratches the scab of America's anxious preoccupation with China's spectacular economic rise and its declared intent to reshape the global order.
Similarly to Yergin, the Biden administration—in order to seize the climate-conscious moment and mobilize the public—is tightly wrapping its green deal in the American flag. Biden speaks of himself as the climate president: launching a new green industrial revolution to create jobs at home; addressing issues of climate justice first domestically, then fusing them internationally. He hosted a Leaders Summit on Climate on Earth Day, in April. The intent was to rally global support and to underscore that, after a four-year absence, America had returned to the world stage to lead the response to the great challenges of our time.
In the same breath, however, Biden's administration made the climate emergency a key item in the competition between the US and the PRC. Biden's new rhetoric seeks to sow doubt about China's commitment to the climate fight. China is singled out, emphatically asked to become transparent and specific about the policies that will meet its goal to reach carbon neutrality by 2060. This form of engagement, rather than offering some respite from the ongoing antagonism, further exacerbates it.
Biden's new realist frame acknowledges climate change as a threat to national interests. But it also seeks to harness nationalism to drive action on the climate front. This constitutes a shift from Barack Obama's compartmentalization approach, which saw climate as an area in which to build cooperation and trust with the PRC and to provide joint global leadership. It is true that, under Obama, the push to decarbonize was peppered with doses of nationalist rhetoric; these were meant to create domestic buy-in for greening the US economy and to weaken the opposition of proponents of fossil-fuel interests. The US, however, was then still eager to find concrete ways to engage in good faith with China. Climate was thus carved out as an area of constructive cooperation and trust building, even though a bipolar setup for global power sharing was being purposely created.
The Big Picture: Building a Climate Coalition
By Robert O. Keohane
The enthusiasm and bravado with which the US is now embracing the climate project, while at first glance encouraging, is in many ways alarming. This expanded realist frame not only is narrow but also might prove disastrous, should climate be sacrificed at the altar of geopolitical confrontation.
Moreover, there are still contending forces pushing for and against the domestic green agenda. Within the US, consensus about what should constitute a national climate response has not been reached, a reminder that the current political resolve might weaken within two years if Congress changes hands. What has changed, however, is that business and finance now see an opportunity to grow new sectors of the economy and thus reap excellent returns on investment, especially in the electrification of transport.
Pushback within the US is, however, never far behind. Like clockwork, the fossil-fuel industry has gone on the attack, gearing up for a full-fledged confrontation. Moreover, America continues to be the world's number one oil and gas producer. Will the US be able or willing to relinquish what had been widely viewed as an important energy and geopolitical advantage?
It remains to be seen, therefore, if the new administration will actually achieve the dramatic shift that it has announced. Instead, Biden's administration might end up serving as an unwitting Trojan horse that delays the global decarbonization project by continuing lucrative oil and natural-gas exports. The mixed messages, internal disputes, and delays provoked by a wavering US strengthen Yergin's narrative of determinism, which deems it impossible to achieve an energy transition within the timeline critical for deciding the fate of the planet.
Is Yergin's the only available roadmap? It is certainly clearly marked, if one is looking for a superhighway on which to recklessly speed over the precipice. But there are also other paths, less well trodden, that take more coordination and are more sensible.
Although Americans may not want to hear this, it might be best if the US is not the country leading the world through the climate crisis; it does not need to be. It can certainly decarbonize and green its economy, innovate, and mobilize both the public and private sectors to spearhead the unprecedented changes that will be required to avert a planetary catastrophe. It can also, in time, develop its normative frame for planetary stewardship and environmental justice. All these actions will be welcomed by the world. The blinding brightness of the Made in America perspective, however, with its rivalries and contentions, attracts competitors and allies like moths to the flame, consuming time, resources, and the global will to pursue inclusive broad-based solutions. Moreover, not leading does not in any way suggest that the US withdraw from the process of engagement and goal setting. A more neutral, less polarized party would be better equipped to coordinate the effort, de-escalate tensions, and keep stakeholders engaged and transparent about their contributions and plans in response to the climate crisis.
The EU has a temperament and institutional capacity much more suited to the task. It is also America's friend and ally. Though omitted in Yergin's new map, Europe is a mature power, a defender of global institutions and multilateralism, and has an economy comparable to those of China and the US. Moreover, it is not locked in a contest for primacy. Time and again, it has shown resilience and endurance. It has, moreover, used its regulatory power to reach global understandings and facilitate arrangements that help build transparency and common rules for all.
Yergin's deafening silence about Europe is presumably a product of his America-centered thinking, because the EU is emphatically resisting the narrative of bipolar competition as the sole blueprint for the global order. Considering itself the "most advanced multilateral project in history," the EU aims to be the "centre of gravity of the work to promote and protect multilateralism globally," especially in the attempts to combat climate change.
The EU is actively supporting and engaging in discussions to reform existing institutions such as the UN, the WTO, and the Council of Europe instead of letting them remain static and wither into irrelevance. Moreover, through its "variable geometry multilateralism" it recognizes that there are no longer fixed sets of "like-minded" countries that see eye to eye on all issues. In Europe's view, it can stay true to its values and principles and pursue "like-minded partnering" to form the most relevant multilayer group possible when dealing with any specific issue. It is open to working with a range of stakeholders and supports "regional multilateralism." The flexibility and inclusiveness through which the EU is approaching global governance will be key assets in fostering the new geopolitics that the current times require.
Notwithstanding its own troubled history, today's EU has made some of the most concrete progress on the decarbonization of its economy, while also weaving environmental regulation into all spheres of its economic and social policies. It is not interested in living in a new bipolar world that also echoes what other countries would prefer.
Even though Europe has sought to build some industrial capacity closer to home, it has not foregone globalization or interdependence. This is why it finalized a trade deal with China at the end of December 2020, just after Asia-Pacific countries including China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand signed the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) agreement in November 2020. The EU created the European Battery Alliance in 2017 to build resilience in the face of electric vehicle (EV) competition but has attracted non-EU companies to its shores, thus both diversifying and strengthening global supply chains.
While planning for the fourth industrial revolution and the digitalization of the global economy, the EU is actively seeking to set global standards and norms for ethical, secure, and cutting-edge AI and digital connectivity. Moreover, while welcoming Biden's election and rekindling its historic relations with the US, which had unraveled under the Trump administration, it has communicated that it envisions a forward-looking transatlantic agenda for global cooperation reflecting strong multilateral action and prioritization of cooperation for the protection of the planet.
The EU has kept the climate negotiations moving forward; indeed, Paris was a milestone for a global understanding of what is at stake. It maintains a complex and deep network of relationships with developing nations and recognizes that the world has changed. The old colonial model of carving up regions to manage competition has ended. Developing countries now have other options and often prefer to work with China. This is why a new framework of cooperation is necessary and a global response to the climate crisis can facilitate its construction.
All Tomorrow's Warnings
By Rob Nixon
First, it is necessary to take a step back. Lowering the realist volume will allow the world the space for new possibilist thinking, moving away from Yergin's map of conflict and reimagining a map in which the climate crisis is the defining problem of the global commons.
Yergin's analysis rests on mapping out and layering conflicting interests on top of one another, in a way that makes it impossible to see clearly in order to navigate. A reconfigured map that depicts all the individual actors together forming part of a whole corresponds more faithfully to the challenges ahead.
These challenges can best be met with a new vision that recognizes interdependence and a new geopolitics that includes the aspirations of both the developing and the developed world. The response to the climate crisis must not become a starting pistol for a new scramble: for inputs, "geopolitically engineered" supply chains, the building up of tech and knowledge barriers, more exclusions and inequities that engender securitized solutions to global challenges.
In the end, it's not enough just to debate which kind of fuel to put in whose tank. We also first have to choose where we all are headed.
This article was commissioned by Caitlin Zaloom.
At the end of 2019, the EU announced a Green Deal to become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050. In September 2020, China committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2060; Japan and Korea by 2050. The US under Biden, moreover, rejoined the Paris Accord and declared its ambition for net-zero emissions, economywide, no later than 2050. ↩

Meet the man behind the farm near Oswestry featuring in a new television series
By Jack Butler Reporter
An EVER-present farm near Oswestry is getting a big television break as it becomes the focal point of a new series on Quest.
Treflach Farm is featuring in the 10-episode-long series titled Born Mucky: Life on the Farm, which aired its first episode last night (Tuesday).
The family-run farm opened back in 1904, and has been based in Treflach ever since.
It is now under the management of Ian Steele who returned to look after the farm in 2006, following some time working in London and overseas.
The show will follow the family throughout their day-to-day working lives on the farm as staff showcase the hard work and dedication it takes to look after the farm and produce quality produce.
Ian said the opportunity to showcase working life at the Treflach site is something he is really grateful for.
"It's a really exciting thing for us," he said.
"We're really lucky to have some wonderful people working on the farm and some wonderful customers, but now being able to spread the word about good quality food, locally grown with locally sourced ingredients, it's really great to be able to shout about that to a wider audience.
"We are a relatively small-scale operation and we're not here to take over the world, but to be able to grow the message is something I'm really grateful to the guys at the television programme for."
The series is aiming to give people an insight to where their food comes from and how it is produced.
A similar programme delivered by the same company focused on independent food retailers, and they now want to go further down the production chain to show what happens before it reaches the consumers.
Featuring in the initial programme was an independent retailer named Eat 17, who suggested Treflach Farm should be part of the upcoming series.
Ian said: "We supplied a really great independent retailer called Eat 17 and they had a programme made about them because of the good work they do in the community and other things.
"The television company that made that programme was looking at going up the production chain to start looking at where the food comes from before it reaches the retailers.
"They wanted to get a proper idea of where the food comes from and the personalities behind them which is not necessarily the story the consumer hears a lot of the time.
"So they asked people at Eat 17 to recommend someone they could talk to, and very kindly they recommended us."
After returning to the farm in 2006, it was left to Ian to decide which direction the family-run business was to go next.
This resulted, eventually, in the farm being as it is today, with an on-site bakery and more transparency for visitors to see where their food has come from.
But on a personal note, it was also a change which Ian says was beneficial to his wellbeing as he made a career change to focus on working at the farm full-time.
He said: "Because we deliver our food to independent retailers ourselves, we tick a lot of the boxes.
"We have free-range animals on the farm and we have the bakery here – and all our food is packaged up and labelled as Treflach Farm produce.
"So we have that traceability which a lot of food producers don't really have.
"People are further removed from their food than they have ever been; what we're trying to do is change that and actually engage with people about where their food comes from.
"We want to make people understand that eating healthily doesn't necessarily have to break the bank and can help with their well-being.
"We do this also through the community interest companies we run from the farm which helps adults with learning difficulties and mental health issues.
"I found returning to the farm being a very therapeutic exercise in itself – I struggled with mental health issues and depression when I was working abroad and down in London.
"Returning to the farm and taking it in a new direction has really helped me and I've found a lot of peace and therapeutic value from working outside in fresh air and doing tasks that have real visible outcomes.
"You get a massive sense of wellbeing and satisfaction from seeing your work done in front of you, it gives you a real sense of satisfaction."
Ian hopes the programme can inform people about how much care is taken for the animals at the farm.
He added: "From our perspective, we want to get the message across that food production can be environmentally aware and we can produce food which fits with a moral and ethical framework.
"Looking after animals as well as we possibly can, with them fitting into the food chain in a way that really values them as sentient beings, but also nourishes people spiritually and physically.
"And doing all that while suppressing carbon and becoming energy neutral or even generating energy on the farm using appropriate technologies.
"We want people to see farming can be a force for the good in this world rather than a bit of a maligned force that it can be seen as in the media.
"It's frustrating because farming can often be lumped together as one variety, when actually there are a lot of ways of producing food, and what we're trying to show is that we can produce food in a way which is sympathetic to nature and can work with the local economy and can offer good well-paid jobs.
"It can also help with regards to giving mental health benefits when working outdoors and as one with animals – mental health is a real issue that has come about in society in general, but in farming specifically in the past couple of years."
The programme is set to air on Quest at 9pm every Tuesday for the next nine weeks.
