The Great Resource Race

Power, Scarcity, and the Future of Survival

Beschreibung

When the world runs hot, power flows to whoever controls the tap. This book shows how governments and companies are quietly competing to command resource geopolitics-the flows of water, food, minerals, and energy that keep societies alive. It explains why headlines about petrostate politics or resource nationalism are really stories about chokepoints, substitutability, and time-to-switch-and how those forces will touch your bills, your job, and your community. Designed for readers who want clarity without complacency, it maps the systems behind water wars, rare earths supply chain shocks, and the fragile routes that feed cities. You will see why energy transition minerals are the new leverage, how semiconductor water use turns permits into power, and why food insecurity and grain corridors now shape elections as much as harvests. More importantly, you'll gain a practical method to assess exposure and build resilient supply chains-at home, at work, and in public life. -Learn to read risk like a strategist, not a spectator -Spot which dependencies matter, and which headlines don't -Use simple tools to reduce vulnerability without panic If you care about security, prices, or fairness in an age of stress-and if you prefer competence over noise-this is your field guide to the politics of flow, from resource geopolitics to climate migration security.

Autor

Sameer Khalid writes about power where most people see pipes, wires, and weather. Raised between monsoon rivers and desert winds, he learned early that prosperity is a story of flows-who measures them, who moves them, and who pays when they fail. His work follows supply chains from mine mouths to factory gates, from grain ports to grid control rooms, listening to engineers, farmers, traders, and ministers argue about the same facts in different accents. He believes good policy is patient, good business is honest, and good citizenship is knowing when to use less so everyone has enough. This book continues his project: to give readers clear language and steady tools for an age that will reward competence over noise.
