For a #commodity #essential to everything from pharmaceuticals to agriculture and mining, #sulfur rarely makes headlines. But the #Iran #war is wreaking havoc on global trade of sulfur, a #byproduct from the #oil and gas sectors.

Which means that any disruptions to the sulfur market reverberate far beyond it.

The Termination Shock: Our Accidental Sunshield

What if the biggest environmental win of the last decade actually hit the accelerator on global warming? We’ve spent years in a climate tug-of-war, with greenhouse gases pulling temperatures up while an invisible blanket of sulfate pollution from ships acted as an accidental sunshield, bouncing sunlight back into space.

Strait of Hormuz disruptions: Implications for global trade and development |

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most critical maritime chokepoints, carrying around a quarter of global seaborne oil trade and significant volumes of liquefied natural gas and fertilizers.
