Norway is already one of the richest countries in the world, but they will be much richer. On top of their vast offshore oil reserves, they now found out to have a massive deposit of phosphate. This will instantly make them the world leader of this precious mineral which is used to create fertilizer, batteries, and electric cars.

Why should EU's limitations hold back Norway's extraction of phosphate? Norway is NOT a member of the EU, they stand outside and only pay certain fees and participate in the Schengen travel regulation to enable their citizens to travel like any other citizen of EU.

Norway is not a member of the European Union because of issues like these. There’s no upside getting tied down by the European Union’s regulations. Export of phosphate will happen regardless. PS.

They set the system up fine when it was developed but the constant push for lowering taxes by the right since Reagan over the last 40yrs is what's making it insolvent... oh & the ridiculously bloated military budget. I slight tax increase on the rich & cutting the military budget in half is what has to be done.

Florida’s phosphate miners are highly trained technicians who sit in air-conditioned, 8-million-pound excavators. They unearth some 10 million tons of phosphate rock a year, supplying nearly a quarter of global demand for the “white gold” that helps crops grow. Florida is home to one of the richest phosphate deposits in the world. For about 140 years, the state has housed a secluded and powerful industry that mines one of three essential nutrients for the global fertilizer market.

Exactly. Another example - We're in the process of electrifying several Oil&Gas fields (clean hydro power from shore instead of producing it locally on the rigs). So, basically the gas instead will be exported to the continent and used to produce power there. Which in turn will make our own pollution figures more politician "friendly". "We worked hard and met our environment goals (now do start praising us, please)". As if the global environment cares where the pollution is. It's all politics. Everything is politics nowadays, and one consequence for ordinary people is that the price of clean hydro power will increase yet again.

Norway's infrastructure is in a serious state of disrepair and falling apart due to lack of investment. Successive 'frugal' Norway governments have divested from Norway's onshore economy to such as extent the currency (NOK) has been decreasing in value for over 10 years and Norwegians have among the highest debt-to-income ratios in the world. The UK has never been a petrostate, it's economy has always been more than Norway could ever dream about. Norway is officially the world's least self-sufficient nation due to its unfortunate geography and miserable climate. It can't survive on fossil fuels and fish. It would struggle to feed 25% of its 5 million population without importing food. Do the maths. If war escalates, Norway becomes a humanitarian crisis within months. It is one of the poorest nations in Europe by default, had a chance to invest in itself but failed to, because of pathological greed and the curse of oil.

Egalitarianism in Norway is a myth engineered by romantic nationalists. Norway has among the worst distributions of wealth in Europe, possibly worse than the UK and France. That's according to two experts in Norway, btw. Two economics professors who decided to fact-check wealth distribution in Norway. Nor does Norway have a stable economy, Norwegians have among the highest debt-to-income ratios in the world and the value of the NOK has been declining for over 10 years. It's going to implode at some point. The Norway government will deny it and twitch while Norwegians struggle more and more. They will normalise struggling for you and you'll be gratefully brainwashed enough to comply. Norwegians have always been exploited by pathologically greedy 'vikings' expressing the ethics of heroin dealers. Norway might look 'wealthy' on paper when fudged by cherry-picked and massaged stats no one checks, but is among the poorest by default due to its unfortunate geography and miserable climate on the periphery.

Everyone likes the Norwegian model until they understand that only a handfull of people will get any benefits from this. While the citizens of Norway get less wealthy for every fucking month. Not since WW2 have the food lines been longer in Norway. It's like sayin Americans are so lucky that Raytheon makes trillions off wars. Good luck getting a dollar of that money. Try look up GREED in the dictionary, and you will see Norwegian politicians.

​@@PauloFerreira-nz3ml Technological advancements refer to improvements or innovations in technology that enhance productivity, efficiency, and quality of life. These advancements can occur in various fields such as information technology, engineering, healthcare, transportation, and more. Norway, despite being known for its natural resources like oil and cod fish, has also made significant strides in technology. For instance, Norway is a leader in renewable energy technologies, particularly in hydropower and wind energy. Additionally, Norway has a strong presence in sectors such as maritime technology, telecommunications, and biotechnology. Norway's wealth is indeed partly derived from its natural resources, particularly oil. The country has managed its oil revenues prudently through the Government Pension Fund Global, commonly referred to as the Norwegian Oil Fund. This fund invests surplus revenues from oil and gas production for future generations. Therefore, Norway's wealth is not solely dependent on oil, but also on the wise management of its resources. While Norway may not be as commonly associated with technological advancements as some other countries, it has made significant contributions in various industries. For example, Norway is known for its excellence in maritime technology, producing advanced ships and maritime equipment. Furthermore, Norway is a leader in the development and implementation of sustainable technologies, particularly in the fields of renewable energy, environmental conservation, and electric vehicles. Norway has a diverse range of industrial products beyond oil and cod fish. Some notable examples include: Maritime equipment and technologies, such as advanced ships, offshore platforms, and marine engines. Renewable energy technologies, including wind turbines, hydroelectric power plants, and solar energy systems. Telecommunications equipment and services, with Norwegian companies playing a significant role in the development of telecommunications infrastructure and mobile technologies. Advanced machinery and equipment for various industries, such as manufacturing, construction, and agriculture. Biotechnological products and innovations, including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and biotech research. No one in Europe are impressed of anything from the US

Florida’s phosphate miners are highly trained technicians who sit in air-conditioned, 8-million-pound excavators. They unearth some 10 million tons of phosphate rock a year, supplying nearly a quarter of global demand for the “white gold” that helps crops grow. Florida is home to one of the richest phosphate deposits in the world. For about 140 years, the state has housed a secluded and powerful industry that mines one of three essential nutrients for the global fertilizer market.

Strangely, the video entirely overlooks the dread fact that rock phosphates used as “fertiliser” contain radioactive elements which are source of prolific and increasing cancers in humans and animals. In addition to uranium, plants absorb the following radioactive elements from rock phosphates: radium-226 radon-222 polonium-210 lead-210 Amongst the types of radiation, alpha radiation is especially causative of the deformation of DNA (molecular deoxyribonucleic acid) and resultant cancer. Human and animal bodies are made up of cells which replicate before ageing and dying off. DNA within the nucleus of cells is the genetic information ‘blueprint’ from which new cells replicate. Whereas toxic chemicals can injure or destroy cells, radiation interferes at the nuclear atomic and molecular level, deforming the genetic DNA structure. When genetic information controlling cell replication is deformed, cells can over-replicate and grow into malignant tumours . Radiation produces many grave conditions in the human. Following the nuclear explosions at Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Chernobyl, the consequential disease of epidemic proportions in the nearby populations, characterised by widespread ill-health and reduced immune-system efficiency, and by leukaemia, mental and physical handicaps and deformities, teratoma (congenital tumour), teratogeny (production of mutant monsters), Siamese (conjoined) twins, birth defects, was (and is) due principally to alpha radiation. Infertility and teratogeny result from irradiation of DNA within sperm and ova. Unborn infants receive leukaemogenic and carcinogenic doses of radioactivity via the mother’s bloodstream. In the examples mentioned, extreme doses of radiation produced immediate overt results. The harm from radiation derived from phosphates, though not so easily understood and obvious as that which is associated with a nuclear explosion, can be nonetheless injurious and fatal. Scientists recognise the danger to living things from beta radiation emitted by lead-210, which has a radioactive half-life of 21 years. However, Alpha radiation can be twenty times more damaging. See: Radioactivity in plants was first established and researched by Vilma Hunt at Harvard University, as long ago as 1964. See: U.S. National Institute of Health Study, Lancet, Sept., 1983. See: Study by Dr. Takeshi Hirayama for the Tokyo Institute of Preventive Oncology.

Thorium could become Norway's next energy adventure The Fens field in Telemark may contain one of the world's largest thorium deposits. According to a recent study, the energy content can be 120 times higher than in all oil and gas in the Norwegian sector.... Hehe,,, and that's in addition to 80 billion tonnes of phosphate found in Rogaland county!!! Conservative value 50 trillion dollars and upwards... good to be norwegian!

The big issue with nuclear energy is that the research, development and construction is ridicilously expensive, and was in very large parts funded by military research for operating submarines and enriching uranium. While a lot of the heavy lifting has already been done, there is still a long way to go to make thorium reactors of the same quality as gen4 uranium reactors, and without the military footing most of the bill, it's simply not profitable against solar, wind and hydropower. If there is a surge in energy demand in other regions that is not met by cheaper sources, then research and development on thorium might start back up again, but for now, it's dead in the water

This phosphate story is ridiculously overblown by various YT channels, based on really sloppy journalism when the news broke a few years ago. In Norway, most people haven't really heard a lot about the whole thing. It is not a big deal at all. Yes, there are resources in the area, possibly big, but the numbers in this video are kind of silly. And I still struggle to find the sinister EU link in real life. Many EU countries are ready to import phosphates and rare earths if and when this mining starts, and the production must be based on shared environmental regulations. But as per 2024, no framework for a future exploration exists. I think a lot of people mix this mining with the proposed test-mining of seabed minerals. Those plans are controversial in many EU countries, but even more controversial in Norway.

Not only the richest , they are the smartest. Reinvesting natural resource profits is beyond intelligent. Canada spends it before they have it like a drunken sailor , but if it were invested we would probably be as rich as the Norwegians. A resource rich country like Canada should never run a deficit and should be building a sovereign wealth fund that cannot be touched by politicians. Everyone should be looking at Norway!

Florida’s phosphate miners are highly trained technicians who sit in air-conditioned, 8-million-pound excavators. They unearth some 10 million tons of phosphate rock a year, supplying nearly a quarter of global demand for the “white gold” that helps crops grow. Florida is home to one of the richest phosphate deposits in the world. For about 140 years, the state has housed a secluded and powerful industry that mines one of three essential nutrients for the global fertilizer market.
