We are currently mulling the idea of buying an electric car (emphatically it will not be a Tesla which simply trades one kind of toxic pollution for support of another), so I thought this LC photo was worth posting. Amazing how different the world would be if the oil cartel, and it was a cartel created after the monopoly of Standard Oil was slightly crushed by a 1911 court decision, had not prevailed and electric cars had become the norm. It was a technological possibility, but gasoline powered automobiles came to be the almost exclusive automotive form thanks to the near monopolies in energy sources and and slightly later the manufacture of vehicles. The consequence of monopoly capitalism at its worst!

You know that the types of far right Christians people like Fritz Springmeier targets don't actually read their Bibles properly (IE, reading everything in context, and setting aside their personal biases to read what it actually says instead of what they want it to say), because if any of them bothered to check any of these citations, they'd realize pretty fast he's absolutely full of shit.

Revelation is that totally unexpected sudden change will characterize the end times. Christians need to be prepared for unusual big changes. So great will these changes be that the nations will be distressed, and men’s hearts will fail them for fear (LK 21:25-27). The Bible predicted that knowledge shall increase in the last days before Christ returns. (DN 12:4) But that knowledge will be used for evil, because the Bible also says that the world will be totally corrupt as in Noah’s time (MT 24:37)--which was a time of the genetic monsters, the half-bred Nephalim. It also says men and horses will be out of work. (ZEC 8:10) And it is believed that Nahum 2:3-4 must be describing automobiles, and that Isaiah 31:5, and 60:8 are describing and prophesying airships in the last day. The description of the "mark of the beast" is startlingly accurate in describing the microchip which is being inserted into people’s hands and foreheads. The information that is allowed out for the public to access has been heavily censored.

And no, I'm not going to explain here why he's full of shit. You can do what his target audience won't, and go read the texts he's citing and see why for yourself.

At the Time of Sight

Fic by @souverian-are-we | Art by @greenfiend

Mature | 15k words

November, 1963. Will Byers and Mike Wheeler are two rangers stationed at a remote fire lookout tower in the mountains. When Mike returns to their 100-foot high home and discovers Will missing, he has a few leads. One is the paranoia Will has been exhibiting over the past few weeks, insisting he sees something in the trees. The other lead is the growing tension between them, their affection for each other becoming hard to hide as they spend every day and night in the same glass room.

Warnings: Major Character Death, Graphic Violence, Period-Typical Homophobia, Mental Health Issues

Read on Ao3 | View Art

Read an excerpt below:

The skyline above Mt. Hawkins was clear, and the setting sun cut through the cold November sky, bathing the fire station’s cab thickly in orange light.

Will Byers' long khaki-clad limbs curled into a chair by one of the south side windows, glass extending from floor to ceiling on every side of their home. Will balance binoculars in one hand and a notebook in the other, scribbling. On the other side of the room, Mike Wheeler flopped onto his bed, radio in hand. After dinner, the pair had settled into comfortable silence, retreating to opposite walls and finding their own occupations.

Mike and Will had been stationed in their mountain perch for a little more than eighteen months. They shared the same duty, to keep vigil over the peaks and valleys that surrounded their tower, to know every contour and dip of the landscape so impossibly well that they could instantly detect signs of fire in the trees.

For at least three days out of seven, both beds in the 160-square-foot fire tower were filled, and Mike had someone to keep him company beyond news transmissions and pulp novels.

Mike’s radio crackled as he tuned it, the dial buttons smooth and worn under his hands. The stiff mattress creaked beneath him as he shifted his position, extending the radio’s antennae. He caught the end of an advertisement, and then the familiar sound of CBS Evening News filled the little cab.

"This is Walter Cronkite in our newsroom; and there has been an attempt, as perhaps you know now, on the life of President Kennedy."

Mike sat up, turning up the volume on his radio.

"He was wounded in an automobile driving from Dallas Airport into downtown Dallas, along with Governor Connally of Texas. They've been taken to Parkland Hospital there, where their condition is as yet unknown."

“Will,” Mike tried to find Will’s eyes, but he was looking down, writing at almost a frantic pace in that little book. “Will, Kennedy was shot.”

Keep Out of the Wolf's Den

Vanessa goes into Roxanne's green room against her wishes to investigate a sound that she believed came from the room. But...she ends up getting distracted for long enough to get found out by that very animatronic. What will the wolf do when she sees her snooping?!

This fanfic was suggested by Bread Anon! I hope you enjoy! And here's some bread. 🍞🍞🍞🍞

5...

Vanessa was standing around inside Roxanne Wolf’s green room. She thought she had heard a non-metallic noise, and had gone in to investigate. But now she was beginning to wonder if she might’ve been mistaken. She walked towards the curtains and moved them out of the way, hoping to find an answer to her question. But all she found was a wall…Just a brick wall…

She chuckled to herself as she saw this out-of-place red, brick wall. The renovators really couldn’t put in the time to add drywall here? They just…left it like this?! Well…Considering how big this place is…maybe the entertainment company ran out of money…

But how can a huge corporation like Fazbear Entertainment run out of money?! Despite how much trouble and controversy they’ve always been in for the last 40-50 years, the pizzeria chain is still insanely popular! But if it was for better or for worse, no one really knew yet.

Vanessa looked around the rest of the green room, quickly noticing how ‘not green’ the green room was. If there was one thing she knew about Roxanne Wolf…It was that purple was not her color. Though…Vanessa supposed that they only chose the purple color because flashy red was taken by Freddy, and bright green was already taken by Monty. 

But…Couldn’t they choose to paint Freddy’s room the color orange? Or maybe paint Monty’s room the color purple? Eeeh…On the other hand…Knowing Monty, he probably would’ve been pissed if he found out his room was painted purple…But what about yellow, like Monty’s glasses and guitar? Why couldn’t they paint his room that color? 

As you can tell, Vanessa clearly has some opinions about how the animatronics rooms had currently been presented. But of course, no one wants to hear the opinion belonging to the lonely security guard at the bottom of the pyramid. No one cares about the security guard’s opinion…The only people that usually matter…are the customers…because customers bring ratings. And ratings bring more customers…and more customers bring ratings…you get the point. It’s all a vicious cycle that Vanessa liked to call “corporate greed”. 

Vanessa looked at the tires that were hanging up on the wall. Most of the tires looked unused…like they were specifically chosen to be decorations only. But…one of the tires looked a slight bit used…like the rubber was partly burned off before it was hung up as a decoration. 

How did Vanessa know this? Well it’s simple, really…Her father had taught her a lot about cars growing up. He had always been a Nascar fan, and always attempted to pass it down to her. Though her father’s plans failed, she still held onto some of the knowledge she had about cars, tires, and other parts of the automobile industry. She also suspects that adding the automobile information to her resume had helped her get hired for such a position. Afterall, her job also included shutting everything down for the night. And with her knowledge, she only had to be shown where to park the cars and where to hang the keys and lock up the passes for the night. 

She looked at the neon writing that was hanging up on the wall. The letters were light purple and made with neon LED lights. The letters read ROXANNE WOLF with Adidas-like stripes on both the top, and the bottom of the sign. 

Right away, the sign stood out as the messiest decoration in the room. And by messy, I mean ‘badly written’. For some reason, the company wanted to choose a font that looked very retro and flashy…but they seemed to have forgotten that those lazer, italic fonts were hard to read at first glance. That’s one of the reasons why the fonts Arial MT, Calibri and Times New Roman became so popular. Because even a toddler would be able to read them upon first glance. 

As you probably would’ve guessed, Vanessa had quickly given up on finding the source of the sound. And at this point, she had moved onto just snooping around in Roxanne Wolf’s room just for the hell of it. 

“What are you doing?” Someone asked behind her. 

Vanessa yelped and turned around. “WHO’STHERE?!” Vanessa shouted, shining the flashlight in the person’s face. 

The person shielded their eyes from the flashlight with their right hand while flicking on the Green Room’s lights. With the light now on, Vanessa could see the person much more easily. And as it would turn out…it wasn’t a person that she was looking at. 

It was actually an animatronic. 

Roxanne Wolf, to be specific. 

“Uh…..Nothing.” Vanessa finally replied awkwardly. 

“If you were doing nothing, then you wouldn’t be in here.” Roxy told her as she walked closer to her. 

Vanessa sighed, turned off the flashlight and scratched the back of her head. Unfortunately, Roxy had a point. “True…” Was all Vanessa could say at this point. 

“So what were you doing in here?” Roxy asked, crossing her arms and tilting her head to the left. 

Vanessa pointed to the general room. “I thought I heard something in here.” Vanessa admitted. 

“My door was closed.” Roxy reminded her. 

“...Just because the door was closed, doesn’t mean the coast was automatically clear.” Vanessa reminded her. 

“I know you were doing more than just ‘checking things’, Ness.” Roxy told her. “It doesn’t take 20 minutes to check a small room for intruders.” 

Vanessa looked down, slightly embarrassed. Funnily enough, Roxy had made another good point. “Yeah…” She mumbled. 

Roxy lifted Vanessa’s chin up with her green fingernail. “Am I gonna have to make you spill the tea?” The wolf animatronic asked. 

Vanessa blinked, before raising an eyebrow. “Spill the tea-” Vanessa pushed Roxy’s hand away. “Do I look 30 to you?!” Vanessa reacted. “No one says ‘spill the tea’ anymore.” Vanessa reminded her. 

Roxy smirked and gently poked Vanessa’s arm. “I’ve heard plenty of kids say ‘spill the tea’, Ness.” Roxy teased. She poked her arm again. “And 30 is not very old.” Roxy added, poking her arm a third time. “Heck, 10-15 year olds still use that phrase.” Roxy reminded the security guard, accidentally poking her ribs this time. 

Vanessa jumped and tensed up, a slight wobbly smile showing up on her face for only a moment, before disappearing and returning to the previous annoyed expression. “So? Maybe I don’t want to be an immature 10-15 year old.” Vanessa argued. 

“Hmm…” Roxy’s pupils turned blue as she looked the security guard up and down. “I wonder…” She looked back up at Vanessa’s face right as the blue disappeared from her eyes. A smirk grew on her face. “You wouldn’t happen to be ticklish, would you?” Roxy asked her. 

Vanessa widened her eyes upon hearing those dreaded words. “Uhhhh…” She was able to get out, before shaking her head and putting on an angry face. “No. What makes you think that?” She asked, showing a fair bit of agitation. 

Roxy’s smirk grew wider. “Don’t think I didn’t see that. I saw your reaction.” Roxy warned her. “This-” She poked Vanessa’s upper ribs again, “...tells me everything I need to know.” She finished. 

Vanessa pushed Roxy’s hand away. “Quit that!” Vanessa ordered. 

“Or what?” Roxy asked.

“Or-...Or I’ll tickle you back!” Vanessa warned. 

Roxy’s smile grew enough to show some teeth. “Tickle me, then. I dare you.” She teased. 

Vanessa huffed and tried skittering her fingers on Roxy’s rib region, but…there was no reaction. No jolt, wobbly smile, or giggle left Roxy’s mouth. Not even a huff of air left the animatronic’s nose. 

Vanessa widened her eyes and stopped tickling her. “Oh god…” She muttered, her face as white as a sheet. 

“I think I forgot to mention that animatronics aren’t ticklish.” Roxy added. “But YOU on the other hand…” Roxy poked Vanessa’s lower ribs with her own index and middle finger. “...Are VERY ticklish!” Roxy teased. 

Vanessa squeaked and grabbed Roxy’s metal hand with both of her own hands. But the fact that Roxy just kept on pushing through Vanessa’s resistance to poke her ribs further, just showed the huge difference in strength between them. Roxy, being the animatronic, was filled with so much artificial strength, it should’ve been a crime. 

And Vanessa…Poor Vanessa…She was utterly powerless against the rockstar wolf. 

And to further show this, Roxy picked up Vanessa with one hand, while starting to poke her ribs and belly with her other hand. “Poke! Poke poke poke! Pokey pokey pokey POKE!” Roxy declared everytime she poked the security guard’s middle. 

“AAH- EEHEEK! STop- STAHAP!” Vanessa yelled. 

“POKE! POke- Stop what?” Roxy asked, continuing her pokes. “Poke! Poke poke!” 

“HAHA! Thahaha- Thahahahat!” Vanessa yelled back. 

“Come on, Ness. If you want me to stop something, then you have to be specific!” Roxy reacted. “Now poke, poke, pokepoke- poke-poke…POOOOKE!” Roxy gave Vanessa a big poke in the belly button this time, before swirling her nail around inside the innie belly button. 

“BAHAAAA!” Vanessa arched her back and pushed against the metallic index finger and thumb in an attempt to get out of her grip. “LEHET ME GOOOO!” Vanessa shouted. 

“And leave you to search my room without my permission?! No way!” Roxy reacted, swirling her nail further inside her belly button. 

Vanessa shook her head and kicked her legs wildly, hoping to be dropped soon. “PLEHEHEHEASE!” Vanessa begged. 

“Naaah. You’re quite entertaining when you’re being tickled.” Roxy teased.

“AHAM NOHOHOHOT!” Vanessa yelled. 

“How deep does this thing go-” 

“eeEEEEEEEEHEEEEEEEK!” Vanessa let out the most high-pitched, glass-breaking screech a human could ever make…

“YOWCH!” Roxy suddenly had to drop her and cover her ears in pain! The screech was enough to make her ears ring for a good 5 minutes! 

Vanessa hit the floor on her butt first before curling up and holding her belly. “Yohohou’re ehehevil.” She whined. 

Roxy chuckled and sat down beside her. “You’re cute when you’re embarrassed.” Roxy teased. 

Vanessa let out another ear-deafening screech on purpose this time, causing Roxy to cower in pain and fear. “OW!” Roxy yelled, covering her ears. “Shut up!” Roxy spat at her. 

Vanessa flipped her off in response, before changing her voice a bit with a smile. “You know where that middle finger is going?” Vanessa asked in a makeshift Kermit The Frog voice. 

Roxy raised an eyebrow as she couldn’t help but giggle. “Uhhh…Ihi dohohon’t know.” She replied. 

“It’s going right up your butt!” Vanessa continued in the kermit voice. 

Roxy wheezed and covered her mouth. “Whahahat is that from?!” She asked. 

Vanessa laughed and put her hand down. “I don’t know…it’s something my mom showed me once.” Vanessa admitted. “Apparently people quoted it back in the day?” Vanessa added. 

Roxy laughed and rubbed her nose. “Sounds like something from the 2010’s.” Roxy mentioned. 

Vanessa chuckled and laid down on the floor. Roxy looked over at Vanessa, and began to think for a moment. “Hey Ness?” Roxy called. 

“Hm?” Vanessa replied. 

“Were you actually listening for something in here?” Roxy asked. “Or were you snooping?” Roxy asked next. 

Vanessa shrugged her shoulders. “I genuinely thought I heard something fall or shift in here…” She replied. “But then I started to notice your decorations…” Vanessa added, looking at the wheels on the wall. 

“Oh those?” Roxy reacted, looking at them herself. “Yeah, those were the first 4 wheels that were ever installed on my go kart.” Roxy replied. “And…I got to try out the go kart for the first time.” Roxy admitted. 

Vanessa giggled. “Looks like you had fun burning rubber on your first ride.” She teased. 

Roxy smirked. “Hell yeah I did.” She replied proudly. 

Vanessa smiled and sat up. “I know what it’s like to burn rubber.” Vanessa admitted. 

Roxy looked at Vanessa. “YOU?!” She reacted, shocked. 

“Yeah! I’ve burned rubber before. I used to go out driving on the back roads, and practice my drifting skills with friends.” Vanessa admitted. “I was the drift princess.” Vanessa declared. 

Roxy smirked. “Who’s the drift queen?” she asked. 

Vanessa giggled. “Look in the mirror.” She replied proudly. 

Roxy walked up to the mirror, and looked into it curiously…but instead of seeing herself, she saw a screen-shared picture of a female human. 

“Her name is Gwen.” Vanessa told her. “She was the QUEEN of drifting, AND she even taught me how-” 

Vanessa yelped as she felt something fall against her, and push her onto the ground. She looked up, and guffawed as she felt nails on her belly. “I thought you were gonna say ‘me’! You tricked me!” Roxy yelled. 

Vanessa arched her back and cackled as she felt 8 fingers all over her belly. “BWAHAHAhahahaha! Wohohohorrth ihihihihihit!” She laughed. 

“Worth it?! Did you seriously just say ‘Worth it’?!” Roxy yelled. “Oh THAT IS IT!” She took in a big breath and blew a strong raspberry right onto Vanessa’s belly, specifically right on top of her belly button. 

“NahahAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!” Vanessa shouted, covering up her mouth and temporarily muffling her cackles. 

Roxy moved her long nails over to the sides of Vanessa’s belly. “Having any regrets yet?” Roxy asked. “Cause if you don’t, then you know what’s coming.” the animatronic added. 

“NOHOHOHOHO! IHIHIHI REHEHEHEGREHET NOHOHOTHIHIHIHING!” Vanessa shouted back. “Okaaaay…suit yourseeelf~” Roxy blew yet another raspberry, making Vanessa absolutely lose her mind with laughter. “And if you keep being stubborn, I might just move onto something more evil~” Roxy warned. 

Vanessa shook her head. “STUHUHUBBOHOHORN IHIS MY MIHIHIDDLE NAHAHAHAME!” She declared. “FIHIHIGHT MEHEHEHEEE!” She yelled. 

Roxy dropped her jaw for just a few seconds. This girl…does not know when to quit. But, she made a promise. And a promise, she was going to keep. 

“Alright! It sounds like you REALLY wanna know what my evil plan is.” Roxy declared. “So here it is!” 

Roxy took in a big breath and blew onto Vanessa’s belly. “PPBBFFFBBBFBFBFBFFFBBFB!” 

“YEEEAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAA!” Vanessa was a complete mess by this point. And the funny part was, the full evil plan hadn’t even come into fruition! 

“Om nom nom nom nom!” Roxy started making these strange nibbling sounds while playfully nibbling on Vanessa’s belly. 

“EEEEHEHEHEheheheheheeEEEEE! STAHAhahahahahaaaap!” Vanessa shouted. 

“Om-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom!” Roxy kept on nibbling. 

“YOHOHOU’RE SOHOHOHO WEHEHEHEIRD!” Vanessa yelled. 

Roxy rolled her eyes and giggled. “Is there something you don’t know about me?” Roxy asked. 

“IHIHIHIHI-” Vanessa said back. 

“I’ll take that as a no!” Roxy replied. 

Roxy continued her little tickle attack on Vanessa for a little longer, before finally giving the security guard a little break. Vanessa spent the next couple minutes letting out breaths of relief before attempting to get back to work. She had wasted enough time already, and felt bad about it despite Roxy’s attempts to reassure her. Vanessa eventually got back up and bid her new friend goodbye. 

“Hey Ness.” Roxy called after her.

Vanessa turned around. “Yes?” She replied. 

“If I’m in the room, feel free to come in. But if I’m NOT in the room, then the room’s off limits. Okay?” Roxy told her. 

Vanessa gave her a little salute. “Ey ey, Captain.” She replied. 

All Vanessa heard as she walked back into the pizzaplex, was loud laughter that belonged to Roxanne. Vanessa felt good knowing she was now on good terms with Roxy. Though…she eventually wouldn’t mind risking getting on her bad side as well…cause as it would turn out, Roxy’s bad side was just another phrase to mean mischievous and playful.

Duffey Lake, BC

Established as a provincial park in 1993, this park is centered around the picturesque Duffey Lake and overshadowed by Mt. Rohr.

It is a popular spot for canoeing, kayaking and wildlife viewing. Use caution, as the wind can be strong at times while on the lake. The park offers a rough gravel boat launch.

Located along Duffey Lake Road (Highway 99) about 35km east of Pemberton, nearly midway to Lillooet. It is about a three hour drive from Vancouver. The Duffey Lake Road is a scenic highway that forms part of an automobile tour route called the Coast Mountain Circle Tour.

The Duffey Lake and Cayoosh Creek Valley area was historically used as a travel route between the Lillooet First Nations on Lillooet Lake and the Stl’alt’imx First Nation on the Fraser River. The area was important for hunting, trapping and gathering.

The main conservation role of Duffey Lake Park is to protect a representative portion of the Leeward Pacific Ranges ecosection and to protect important wildlife habitats, particularly for goats and bears. The Duffey Lake area contains some of the flora, fauna, landforms and waters which are characteristic of the region, and illustrates transitional vegetation between coastal and interior climates.

Mountain goat, grizzly bear, deer, black bear, osprey and great blue heron can all be found in the park. 

BC Parks honours Indigenous Peoples’ connection to the land and respects the importance of their diverse teachings, traditions, and practices within these territories. This park webpage may not adequately represent the full history of this park and the connection of Indigenous Peoples to this land. We are working in partnership with Indigenous Peoples to update our websites so that they better reflect the history and cultures of these special places.

Muriel Mussells Seyfert, Dr. Carl K. Seyfert, 1949, oil on canvas, 33 1/2 x 28 in, Vanderbilt University Dyer Observatory, Brentwood, Tennessee. 

Dr. Carl K. Seyfert - February 11, 1911, Cleveland, Ohio – June 13, 1960, Nashville, Tennessee. In 1935 he married Muriel E. Mussells; they had a son, Carl Keenan, Jr., and a daughter, Gail Carol. Carl Keenan Seyfert was an American astronomer. He is best known for his 1943 research paper on high-excitation line emission from the centers of some spiral galaxies, which are named Seyfert galaxies after him. Seyfert's Sextet, a group of galaxies, is also named after him. Seyfert grew up in Cleveland, then attended Harvard University, starting in 1929. He earned his B.S. degree there, and then his M.S. degree (1933). In 1936 he received his Ph.D. in astronomy. His thesis was ""Studies of the External Galaxies"", supervised by Harlow Shapley. The thesis dealt with colors and magnitudes of galaxies. In 1936 he joined the staff of the new McDonald Observatory in Texas, where he helped get the observatory started. He stayed until 1940, working with Daniel M. Popper on the properties of faint B stars and continuing his work on colors in spiral galaxies. In 1940 he went to Mt. Wilson Observatory as a fellow with the National Research Council. He stayed until 1942, studying a class of active galaxies now called Seyfert galaxies. In 1942 he returned to Cleveland, at the Case Institute, where he taught navigation to military personnel and participated in secret military research. He also carried out some astronomical research at the Warner and Swasey Observatory of the Case Institute. In 1946 he joined the faculty of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. The astronomy program at Vanderbilt was very small at the time. The university had only a small observatory, equipped with a 6-inch (150 mm) refractor, and only a modest teaching program. Seyfert worked diligently to improve the teaching program and to raise funds to build a new observatory. Within a few years, he had obtained significant public support from the Nashville community. As the result, the Arthur J. Dyer Observatory with its 24-inch (610 mm) reflector was completed in December 1953. Seyfert became director of the new observatory, a position he held until his death. He died in an automobile accident in Nashville on June 13, 1960. He was 49 years old. Carl Seyfert published many papers in the astronomical literature, on a wide variety of topics in stellar and galactic astronomy, as well as on observing methods and instrumentation. In 1943 he published a paper on galaxies with bright nuclei that emit light with emission line spectra with characteristically broadened emission lines. The prototype example is Messier 77 (NGC 1068). It is this class of galaxies that is now known as Seyfert galaxies, in his honor.,br> During his time at the Case Institute, he and Nassau obtained the first good color images of nebulae and stellar spectra. In 1951 he observed and described a group of galaxies around NGC 6027, now known as Seyfert's Sextet. He was an active innovator in instrumentation, being involved in new techniques such as the astronomical use of photomultiplier tubes and television techniques, and electronically controlled telescope drives. A crater on the moon was named in his honor (Seyfert, 29.1N, 114.6E, 110 km diameter) in 1970. The 24-inch (610 mm) telescope at Dyer Observatory was renamed for him.

Randomly thinking about the fact canonically Transformers turn into cars because Teletran 1 mistook automobiles as the dominant sentient lifeform on Earth.

If humanity just used public transport more or was less car dependent during the eruption of Mt. St. Helens, the Autobots and Decepticons would have homo-sapien beast modes.

Caustic Soda Procurement Intelligence: A Deep Dive

The caustic soda category is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2023 to 2030. In 2022, the category size was estimated to be valued at USD 40.6 billion with the Asia-Pacific region's dominance as a result of a rise in raw material industrial demand for textiles, paper, and other materials as well as manufacturing hubs. The category is escalated globally, owing prominently to its intense abilities and importance across both the residential sector & industries. It is a versatile compound that finds numerous applications across different industries from primary usage in detergents, packaging, and treatment to food, chemical, and automobile. Another factor fueling the category growth is its use in processes such as, making drugs and bauxite purification. Being a primary product for many industries, demand for it remains high, whether it is for parts of EV in cars or the water treatment business. The category is also widely utilized in the extraction of bauxite, and demand for it will rise parallelly as the region's production of aluminum rises.

An increase in innovation and development in production techniques would present potential sustainable growth opportunities for the category. When compared to caustic soda generated conventionally, Vynova renewable caustic soda has a much smaller carbon footprint, as it is manufactured using renewable electricity. It makes it possible for clients in a variety of industries to produce more environmentally friendly goods. Westlake's low-carbon caustic soda, sold under the trade name GreenVin, has a lower carbon footprint by more than 30% than standard Westlake Vinnolit caustic soda. Hamwha, a leading chemical company, increases the amount of caustic soda it produces for advancing and developing the usage of elements in sustainable transportation - specifically EV production.

With numerous suppliers and producers, from large multinational chemical firms to smaller regional or local businesses, the category is highly fragmented. Due to the variety of applications in the category, there are numerous niche markets created. Each industry has its own manufacturing capacity, distribution system, and consumer. The distribution of the categories is influenced by industry demand, economic situations, legal and regulatory frameworks, and technological development. In 2022, Asia Pacific accounted for a large portion of the market. China dominates both production and demand for caustic soda, as it does with so many other chemical products. It holds around half of the world's caustic soda manufacturing capacity. Shale gas output in the US has significantly increased recently, rising category demand.

Approximately 99.5% of caustic soda consumed worldwide is produced through the conventional chlor-alkali process. Raw materials, production volume, machinery, etc. are the cost components of the category. Energy usage also accounts for a sizable amount of variable costs. Prices for caustic soda increased globally, averaging USD 769/MT in the first quarter of 2023 compared to last year’s average USD 719/MT due to factors such as supply chain disruption and rising energy costs. Sales of caustic soda increased by 17% in Q1FY23 to 278,000 tonnes, with a utilization rate of 89%. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, China took over the role of Russia and Ukraine as suppliers of chlor-alkali products to Europe, which resulted in shortages in the Asian domestic market and an increase in local pricing. Due to the oversaturation of the market in Europe brought on by cheap imports from China, the prices remained lower in the region.

The category can be sourced from various methods, primarily through the domestic market.  Due to the simple accessibility of production's raw materials, many nations have domestic manufacturing facilities. It provides advantages like lower shipping costs, shorter lead times, and support for the local economy. As per the industry specification quality testing should be done to meet standards and requirements. Suppliers that demonstrate sustainable practices is another factor influencing sourcing intelligence.

Diethylene Glycol Prices Trend | Pricing | Database | Index | News | Chart

 North America:

During the first quarter of 2024, the North American Diethylene Glycol (DEG) market experienced significant challenges that drove prices upwards. A bullish market emerged due to a limited supply caused by the closure of several production plants amid severe cold weather. The high demand in the antifreeze sector, driven by freezing temperatures, further fueled price increases. Additionally, fluctuations in raw material costs and strong demand for automobile antifreeze impacted the market.

In the United States, similar factors led to significant price changes. Prices remained stable during the first two months, supported by existing inventory levels meeting downstream demand. However, the final month of the quarter saw a surge in prices due to constrained supply exacerbated by disruptions in freight, particularly from the Red Sea incident. Price adjustments by key players, including Indorama Venture, also influenced market trends.

In summary, the DEG market in North America, particularly in the United States, saw price increases during the first quarter of 2024. Key drivers included heightened demand from downstream industries, fluctuating raw material costs, and increased freight charges. In the US, DEG prices rose by over 14% compared to the same quarter the previous year and by more than 13% compared to the preceding quarter of 2023.

APAC:

The Diethylene Glycol (DEG) market in the APAC region witnessed steady demand during the first quarter of 2024. The market showed signs of recovery after a decline in the previous quarter, as downstream industries began to increase their demand. Although there were some concerns regarding high stock inventories, the market managed to maintain a moderate level of demand. Volatile crude oil prices impacted the prices of DEG and its derivatives. South Korea, one of the key players in the market, experienced stable supply levels, ensuring uninterrupted production activities. However, logistics freight charges slightly affected the product's price, resulting in a minor decrease in the latter half of the quarter. Despite this, sellers maintained their profit margins due to the limited availability of materials in the region. The top three factors influencing the market during the quarter were the recovery in demand from downstream industries, fluctuating crude oil prices, and limited material availability. Fortunately, no plant shutdowns were reported during this period. DEG prices in South Korea showed an 8% increase compared to the same quarter last year and a slight increase of 12% compared to the previous quarter of 2023.

Europe:

In the first quarter of 2024, the European Diethylene Glycol (DEG) market faced several factors influencing price dynamics. Plant closures led to limited supply, tightening availability, and pushing prices upwards. Multiple shutdowns across the region exacerbated these constraints. Additionally, ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Red Sea area disrupted global trade routes, driving up freight costs and further impacting DEG prices. In Germany, a key player in the European market, DEG trends were bullish. Increased demand from sectors like polyester and polyurethane collided with transportation disruptions caused by strikes and adverse weather conditions. These disruptions, coupled with plant closures, contributed to rising freight charges and logistical complexities, further impacting DEG prices in the country. As a result, the first quarter's price of DEG CFR Hamburg in Germany stood at USD 1150/MT, marking a significant increase compared to the same period the previous year and signaling positive price momentum. In summary, during the first quarter of 2024, the DEG market in Europe faced supply limitations, transportation disruptions (including strikes and adverse weather conditions), and fluctuations in feedstock prices. Germany specifically felt the effects of these factors, influencing the pricing dynamics of DEG in the region.
