You could say that canal blockages are evergreen.
Hi there! Logistics expert here! I took two correspondence courses that had open book exams in the subject and I feel confident saying:
That can’t be good
That can’t be good
Good for speculation though!
Climate Change is great because it will open up the NW passage allowing faster shipping between continents and access to mineral deposits
remember during the shortages in 2020/2021 when they would cover up empty grocery shelves with PICTURES of the fucking food
The printout images of the food are stuck on boats.
The U.S. actually doing what they accuse DPRK doing SMH
No worries, eventually enough ships will show up and, between them, they’ll have all the cargo that is stranded on the other side so they can just reroute to more convenient destinations. Easy peasy, absolutely no need to even consider doing anything about climate change.Have we considered using migrant labor to deepen the canal?
Once things get worse - neolibs (and then later libs) will be saying…
“Look, these sorts of jobs need to get done or climate change will get worse. Social media creates inaccurate distractions by calling the workers ‘slaves’. First of all - they are getting paid…”
I’m sure that’s already in the works
Why when you can have them port entire container ships like Viking Longboats.

The climates sanctions against US trade are greatly overdue.
Since 1998 it has been jointly owned by then Kansas City Southern, now Canadian Pacific Kansas City, and Mi-Jack Products and leased to the government of Panama.
Western capitalist imperialism at its most blatant and disgusting.

i told u climate change was a self-solving problemrekt
I though the US had freight rail. Put that shit on trains.
Freight rail is kind of a clusterfuck in the USA even if people think it is amazing.
Also, for some reason, everything container on the west coast seems to go through LA/Long Beach, which is also backed up.
And that’s assuming it doesn’t just derail.
Panama could open a railroad parallel to the canal and a port on either end…
You would need two ports able to accommodate enough traffic that it would effectively be the largest two ports in the Americas. You are also going to really mess up logistics as you are splitting one transit trip to three different companies. Costs also rise when you have to process cargo, which you are now add two additional times process cargo.
It isn’t going to be economicly viable. Hell, China’s plan to cross Central America also includes a canal due to cost.
Freight rail is rarely better than just putting the stuff on a ship. While it may be faster, ships are able to move much larger amounts. Its the same story as freight planes. There’s a reason shipping is responsible for something like 80% of transport worldwide
okay, uh, why haven’t they just made tanker-ship wide trains already?
Because that would require tanker-ship wide rail infrastructure (and tanker-ship tall as wellz which will really challenge the weight-factor)
But Biden said rail was the backbone of America and thus not allowed to strike!
My treats!

Any Nestlé ship they might be able to fill the gap.
Well there’s a water shortage, so I’m sure they’re already around to profit off that
