#3 OTOH, it's been pointed out by many that gerbil worming is a scam- "I'll believe it's a crisis when they all start acting like it's a crisis."
OTOH, you really don't hear much about this from China lovers like Tom Freidman or Joostin Turdo. I guess that means they are OK with it, eh?

#4 All of this is a well orchestrated and pre synchronized coordination between Russia and China. The Russians have waited until the closing of the Olympics to make their move. China will back and shore up the Russian economy after the "first Boot" cross the line in Ukraine. China will directly threaten Taiwan and Australia first . Why haven't we heard the other shoe being dropped by the Biden administration, sending home Russian Diplomat #2 in a 'Tit for Tat'? The US will lose this game of 'chicken' with China unless they pull every dollar out of China for every 'dollar' China sends into Russia to break the NATO AND EU sanctions.

#5 India and Russia have poorest grade of coal to burn. China's upgraded coal fired plants do very poorly with those sources. Australian coal was the best but they shot themselves in the foot on that one.

#11 You need good quality coal such as anthracite for best quality steel production. China had shut of Australia for a time for siding for Wuhan investigation.

#12 Metalurgical coal is a specific subvariety of anthracite. Coking coal.

Aren't the Chinese probably recovering steel from the demolition of buildings in the ghost cities? Maybe not. They might actually do the analysis and decide it's cheaper to create more new steel than recycle used. I have no idea.
