We
know that drifting is done sideways but one thing is certain, you either move
sideways or move away from the tracks. And that’s what we are trying to
navigate in today’s edition, leaving (donut like) imprints to pave a path
towards a better future.
BRICS
Away!
At
least, that’s what we would like to call it. At least nineteen new countries
are interested in joining the BRICS group, thirteen have sent formal requests,
and six have asked informally. The idea? China, the second largest economy, is
now focused on building a diplomatic alliance to combat the United Nations and
the US Dollar. With over $50 billion seed money in 2014, BRICS set out to
provide New Development Bank as an alternative to the World Bank and IMF,
gaining the attention of many countries who have had painful experiences with
these monetary bodies. Who knows, we might be seeing a new global currency
soon. But until then, stay tuned for more from BRICS and read this
to learn more!
Is
Biogas the Future?
It’s
not boring as it sounds. With natural gas reserves diminishing at a steady pace
and the world’s energy dependence shifting to self-sufficiency, biogas
consumption is set to double, reaching around 75 Mtoe by 2040. Why? Because
with the increasing livestock farming, all that dung should be put to work for
cheap energy solutions. The best part is that it's renewable, and taking away
all the raw materials from the environment will help sustain the environment as
well. For more on the topic, check this
out.
Where’s
Crypto?
In
digital wallets and out in the mines (of course). With over 23,000
cryptocurrencies in the market, it is a confusing feat for crypto investors to
analyze and keep track of all of them. But having seen a fall in crypto prices
in 2022, they are projected to explode by experts in 2023 as more investors are
adopting Bitcoin. That can be seen already as it is up by 30% already. Now
that’s a catch, and if you want to go out and fish, read this
first!
Hold
Up AI
For
at least six months! Not because of speed but due to uncertainty of direction
and positive use. At least that’s what Elon Must and other tech experts say
about developing AI tools stronger than Chat GPT-4 in an open
letter, covering potential risks for humanity. Although
OpenAI didn’t immediately respond to the letter, safety protocols compelled
them to do so, seeing that their developers are working with policymakers on
governance. To understand the situation better, click here.

to a calorie deficit. So, take some time and get started on your weight loss
