Many countries allow the manufacture and export of pesticides that are banned for use in their own countries. Recently France and Belgium have introduced laws preventing the export of such agrochemicals if their use is banned in the European Union. The European Commission is currently considering whether to introduce similar laws. Grace Livingstone reports from Paraguay where some small farmers living near soya plantations say heavy pesticide spraying is affecting their health and livelihoods. We hear from the United Nations Special Rapporteur for Toxics, Marcos Orellana, who says that global pesticide regulations should be tougher. And we speak to Emily Rees of CropLife International, which represents the agrochemical industry, who says different climates and soil conditions require different pesticides.

Prof. Steve Hanke: Dollarization – A Necessary Move for Argentina?

Tom welcomes back Steve Hanke Professor of Applied Economics - Johns Hopkins University. In this discussion, Professor Steve Hanke emphasizes the potential benefits of dollarization for Argentina's economy. He references the country's history of economic instability, multiple currency and banking crises, and high inflation rates. Hanke suggests that dollarization, similar to the strategies implemented in Ecuador and El Salvador, could lead to a significant reduction in inflation and increase access to long-term credit. He also highlights the success of dollarization in countries like Panama and Hong Kong. Hanke argues that dollarization would align Argentina more closely with the United States, making its currency more secure and convertible. He points out that the stability brought by dollarization would create greater opportunities for the demand of Argentinian goods, particularly in the agricultural sector. He also states that dollarization simplifies borrowing and stabilizes foreign exchange, which benefits the circulation of the US dollar. However, Hanke acknowledges that a reserve would be needed for small change and suggests that it should be backed at a one-to-one rate with US dollars. He dismisses the idea of using gold or Bitcoin as unnecessary especially with a population already highly reliant on U.S. Dollar Notes. Hanke also addresses the political challenges of dollarization, mentioning that the concept may face opposition from the political class who would lose the ability to borrow money from a central bank. Additionally, he highlights the disproportionate impact of the inflation tax on lower-income individuals, underscoring the importance of maintaining a strong budget. Overall, Hanke asserts that dollarization can bring stability, reduce inflation, and create economic opportunities for Argentina. He believes that adopting the US dollar would help mitigate the country's past economic challenges and align it more closely with economically successful nations.

Steve Hankey suggested dollarization as a viable solution which would likely cause inflation to plummet and long-term credit to become accessible. A dollarized system would create a 'confidence shock' and benefit those on lower incomes by reducing the impact of the inflation tax.

Early next month, the European Union and China are set to hold the 24th bilateral summit. The last EU-China summit was held via video conference in April 2022. It took place against the background of China's countermeasures to EU sanctions on human rights, Chinese economic coercion and trade measures against the single market, and most importantly, Russia's military aggression against Ukraine and Beijing's unwillingness to condemn the invasion. Earlier this year, the European Council reaffirmed the EU's multifaceted policy approach towards China, which is based on the judgment that China is simultaneously a partner, a competitor, and a systemic rival. However, that balancing act is getting more and more difficult.Host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Mr. Gunnar Wiegand, who has recently retired from the post of Managing Director for Asia and the Pacific at the European External Action Service, which he held for 7 ½ years.

Advisors on This Week's Show Kyle Tetting Tom Pappenfus Kendall Bauer (with Max Hoelzl and Joel Dresang, engineered by Blake Miller) Week in Review (Nov. 6-10, 2023) Significant Economic Indicators & Reports Monday No major releases Tuesday Imports rose more than exports in September, widening the U.S. trade gap by 4.9% to $61.5 billion. Cellphones and cars led the 2.7% increase in imports, the Bureau of Economic Analysis reported. Exports rose 2.2%, led by petroleum products and soybeans. Through the first three quarters of 2023, the trade deficit widened 20% from the same time in 2022 to $147.4 billion. In that year, exports grew 1% while imports rose 4.2%. Trade deficits detract from gross domestic product, the broadest measure of overall economic growth. The Federal Reserve reported that revolving consumer credit rose at an annual rate of 2.9% in September. The increase in credit card debt suggests consumer spending – which drives about two-thirds of the U.S. economy – remained resilient. It also hints at a possible slowdown, which the Fed has been trying to achieve by raising interest rates the past year and a half. The pace of credit card debt slowed from a 13.7% annual rate in August. The quarterly pace has been decelerating since the end of 2022. Credit card borrowing took two years to recover from its pre-pandemic peak. In contrast, it took a decade to recover from the financial collapse and the Great Recession. Wednesday No major releases Thursday The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims rose for the third week in a row to its highest level since mid-September. Data from the Labor Department showed the four-week average still down 42% from its 56-year average, reflecting continued reluctance by employers to let workers leave amid a tight hiring market. Nearly 1.6 million Americans were claiming jobless benefits in the latest week, up 0.1% from the week before and up 27% from the same time in 2022. Friday The University of Michigan said consumer sentiment is declining for the fourth month in a row. Despite higher opinions of their personal finances, consumers indicated in the university's preliminary November report that high interest rates and the wars in Gaza and Ukraine soured their outlook on the economy. For the top third of stockholders, sentiment improved. The university said expectations for inflation generally rose from October, especially for gas prices.  MARKET CLOSINGS FOR THE WEEK Nasdaq – 13798, up 320 points or 2.4% Standard & Poor's 500 – 4415, up 57 points or 1.3% Dow Jones Industrial – 34284, up 222 points or 0.7% 10-year U.S. Treasury Note – 4.63%, up 0.07 point Not a Landaas & Company client yet? Click here to learn more.

We look at agriculture's greenhouse gas emissions, and the carbon-dioxide-versus-methane debate. Some farmers argue that cattle numbers don't have to come down in order to reduce agriculture's emissions because the methane cattle produce lasts only for about a decade in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide on the other hand, lasts for thousands of years and so, the argument goes, it's more important to produce less of that, leaving cattle on pasture which itself can sequester CO2. We bring together two academics - Professor Myles Allen and Professor Sir Charles Godfray - who are both quoted to support the arguments on either side of the debate. Now the two Oxford professors have agreed a way forward, which involves reducing methane levels and reducing global temperatures. The risk of avian influenza in wild birds has been officially reduced from high to medium after a reduction in the number of cases - in kept poultry the risk remains low. We're looking at the impact of avian flu all week. For farmers it can be devastating and it is changing the way they produce poultry. Conservationists want more research into wild bird populations, where tens of thousands of birds have died. We visit a nature reserve in Scotland and speak to the RPSB's senior policy officer on avian flu. A new £1 million pound dairy export programme's been launched by the government. It was promised by the Prime Minister at the farm-to-fork Summit in May. Currently the UK exports about £2 billion of dairy products every year, to 135 countries. A new dairy export task force, with farmers, processors and government is looking at reducing 'barriers to trade' and opening up more markets. Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Concerns rise as New Zealand's red meat exports take a sharp decline.  The Meat Industry Association reports exports dropped to $617 million in the 12 months to September; a near 20% annual decrease.  It says the global market is softening, but the numbers look worse than they are because last year's meat prices were at record highs.   ANZ agricultural economist, Susan Kilsby told Mike Hosking that there's been a big drop in demand from our biggest market, China.  She says Chinese consumers are saving —not spending— as financial confidence remains low amidst the country's current challenges.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

According to the International Maritime Organisation or IMO, there are more than 50,000 commercial ships registered in the world today, which combined carry over 90% of the goods produced on Earth. They also produce around 3% of the world's CO2 emissions.So what can be done? Is the answer cleaner and greener fuels, better use of information and data, legislation, or a mix of all three?

Administration Fails Forward on China Chip Exports

This episode of the Cyberlaw Podcast begins with the administration's aggressive new rules on chip exports to China. Practically every aspect of the rules announced just eight months ago was sharply tightened, Nate Jones reports. The changes are so severe, I suggest, that they make the original rules look like a failure that had to be overhauled to work. Much the same could be said about the Biden administration's plan for an executive order on AI regulation that Chessie Lockhart thinks will  focus on government purchases. As a symbolic expression of best AI practice, procurement focused rules make symbolic sense. But given the current government market for AI, it's hard to see them having much bite. If it's bite you want, Nate says, the EU has sketched out what appears to be version 3.0 of its AI Act. It doesn't look all that much like Versions 1.0 or 2.0, but it's sure to take the world by storm, fans of the Brussels Effect tell us. I note that the new version includes plans for fee-driven enforcement and suggest that the scope of the rules is already being tailored to ensure fee revenue from popular but not especially risky AI models. Jane Bambauer offers a kind review of  Marc Andreessen's “‘Techno-Optimist Manifesto”.  We end up agreeing more than we disagree with Marc's arguments, if not his bombast. I attribute his style to a lesson I once learned from mountaineering. Chessie discusses the Achilles heel of the growing state movement to require that registered data brokers delete personal data on request. It turns out that a lot of the data brokers, just aren't registering. The Supreme Court, moving with surprising speed at the Solicitor General's behest, has granted cert and a stay  in the jawboning case, brought by Missouri among other states to stop federal agencies from leaning on social media to suppress speech the federal government disagrees with. I note that the SG's desperation to win this case has led it to make surprisingly creative arguments, leading to yet another Cybertoonz explainer. Social media's loss of public esteem may be showing up in judicial decisions. Jane reports on a California decision allowing a lawsuit that seeks to sue kids' social media on a negligence theory for marketing an addictive product. I'm happier than Jane to see that the bloom is off the section 230 rose, but we agree that suing companies for making their product's too attractive may run into a few pitfalls on the way to judgment. I offer listeners who don't remember the Reagan administration a short history of the California judge who wrote the opinion. And speaking of tort liability for tech products, Chessie tells us that Chinny Sharma, another Cyberlaw podcast stalwart, has an article in Lawfare confessing some fondness for products liability (as opposed to negligence) lawsuits over cybersecurity failures.  Chessie also breaks down a Colorado Supreme Court decision approving a keyword search for an arson-murder suspect. Although played as a win for keyword searches in the press, it's actually a loss. The search results were deemed admissible only because the good faith exception excused what the court considered a lack of probable cause. I award EFF the “sore winner” award for its whiny screed complaining that, while it agree with EFF on the principle, the court didn't also free the scumbags who burned five people to death. Finally,  Nate and I explain why the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency won't be getting the small-ball cyber bills through Congress that used to be routine. CISA overplayed its hand in the misinformation wars over the  2020 election, going so far as to consider curbs on “malinformation” – information that is true but inconvenient for the government. This has led a lot of conservatives to look for reasons to cut CISA's budget. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.)  gets special billing. Download 478th Episode (mp3) You can subscribe to The Cyberlaw Podcast using iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Pocket Casts, or our RSS feed.

China is surpassing Japan in 2023 to become the world's leading exporter of cars. BYDs, Cherys and Zeekrs are finding their way to more than 100 markets worldwide. Top destinations include Russia, Mexico, Australia and Spain. Never before in the history of the car has the world witnessed such explosive growth in car exports from a single country. Not surprisingly, the blitz of Chinese cars on global roads has unsettled auto executives and policy leaders alike. How on earth will legacy automakers compete with China's overwhelming advantages in costs? How should Europe and the United States respond? Some early reactions have already surfaced. The Trump Administration put in place a 27.5% tariff on vehicles imported from China. And the president of the EU Commission just launched an anti-subsidy probe on Chinese automakers. What else can policymakers do? Wendy Cutler, our special guest today, walks us through the ups and downs of trade agreements with China since the PRC's accession to the WTO in 2001.
