STATE NEWS

State to reduce $1.8 billion federal unemployment debt by $450M

BY JERRY NOWICKI

CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS JNOWICKI@CAPITOLNEWSILLINOIS.COM

SPRINGFIELD – Gov. JB Pritzker announced a plan Tuesday to reduce a $1.8 billion Unemployment Insurance Trust Fund deficit by $450 million through an infusion of unemployment-related revenues.

The trust fund is the pool of money paid into by employers to provide a social safety net for unemployed individuals.

The employer’s insurance premiums are essentially collected via payroll tax.

The “deficit” figure represents money Illinois must repay to the federal government. It was borrowed under Title XII of the Social Security Act so the state could continue to pay unemployment claims amid the COVID-19 pandemic and is accruing interest at a rate of 1.59 percent annually.

While that balance exceeded $4.5 billion as the unemployment rate reached 16 percent at the height of the pandemic, lawmakers in March dedicated $2.7 billion in federal American Rescue Plan Act funding to pay down the deficit to the balance of roughly $1.8 billion. While Democrats lauded that action as a stop gap to allow for continued negotiations on the trust fund deficit, Republicans criticized the majority party for not allocating more of the state’s $8.1 billion in ARPA funds to the deficit.

The $450 million announced Tuesday will bring the deficit below $1.4 billion.

“Our unemployment system is back on track and the balance of the unemploy-

ment trust fund continues to experience strong and steady growth,” Pritzker said Tuesday at a news conference in Chicago.

“Thanks to Illinois’ economic recovery, the Illinois Department of Employment Security has advised me that the UI trust fund balance is su�cient enough to pay down another $450 million of its pandemic related debt.”

Pritzker said he expects the move to save the state about $10 million in interest costs.

Last week, the state announced unemployment rates were down from one year ago in all 14 metro areas, ranging from 3.8 percent in the Moline and Rock Island area to 6.8 percent around Decatur.

Pritzker said business and labor interests continue to negotiate a solution for reducing the deficit further. But they’re approaching a Nov. 10 deadline after which federal tax hikes would take e�ect if the balance isn’t erased by that date.

That process is spelled out in the Federal Unemployment Tax Act, or FUTA. Federal law requires an employer to pay a FUTA tax on an employee’s first $7,000 of wages at a rate of 6 percent. But it also o�ers businesses a 5.4 percent tax credit, putting the e�ective rate at 0.6 percent.

If a state has a negative balance in the trust fund on Jan. 1 for two consecutive years – as Illinois has had – it has until Nov. 10 of the second year to retire that deficit, or the federal government will start clawing back 0.3 percent of the FUTA tax credit from employers each year until the deficit is gone.

Serving the Greater Rockton, Roscoe and South Beloit area since 2008.

Department of Employment Security said in March that the tax credit reduction would apply to businesses for the 2022 tax year if a balance remains in place on Nov. 10. That would drive the e�ective FUTA tax rate from 0.6 percent to 0.9 percent, an increase of $21 in federal taxes per employee.

Generally, unemployment trust fund deficits are addressed by hiking employer insurance premium rates, decreasing benefit amounts and benefit periods for claimants, or an infusion of more state, federal or other funding.

In the past, negotiations in Illinois have been part of an “agreed bill” process in which labor interests identify cuts they are willing to accept, and business groups o�er means of increasing trust fund revenues.

The solution to a $2.3 billion hole in 2010 amid the Great Recession included benefit cuts and raised premium rates for employers. Lawmakers also dedicated a portion of those premiums as a revenue stream to pay back 10-year bonds, which they used to replenish the trust fund.

Those bonds were paid back in about 7.5 years, and the trust fund was back above water by 2012, according to IDES. Illinois law makers have not yet adjusted the tax rates on employers or cut benefits for claimants since 2020.

Instead, they’ve pushed back statutory rate hikes and benefit cuts multiple times, scheduling them to take e�ect Jan. 1 if lawmakers can’t come to a compromise.

Pritzker said negotiations for a broader fi x are ongoing. But lawmakers are not scheduled to return to the Capitol until Nov. 15.

“As the economy continues, stabilized, we believe that we’ll be able to reduce that even more in the agreed bill process, working with the legislature, we’ll be able to pay it o� by year end,” he said.

While Pritzker described the crush of unemployment claims amid the pandemic as a nationwide strain on unemployment systems, as of Tuesday, Illinois was one of five states and the U.S. Virgin Islands that had an outstanding trust fund balance, according to the U.S. Treasury.

Other states included California at $17.8 billion, New York at $7.9 billion, Connecticut at $97 million, Colorado at $33 million and the Virgin Islands at $96 million.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The founder of the Oath Keepers extremist group and four associates planned for an “armed rebellion” to stop the transfer of presidential power on Jan. 6, 2021, prosecutors told jurors Monday at the opening of the most serious case to reach trial yet in the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Nestler delivered his opening statement in Washington’s federal court in the trial of Stewart Rhodes and others charged with seditious conspiracy. They are accused of a weekslong plot to stop the transfer of power from Republican Donald Trump to Democrat Joe Biden.

“Their goal was to stop by whatever means necessary the lawful transfer of presidential power, including by taking up arms against the United States government,” he said. “They concocted a plan for armed rebellion to shatter a bedrock of American democracy.”

The Oath Keepers planned their conspiracy “in plain sight,” Nestler said, noting open letters Rhodes published on the group’s website. They also used encrypted apps, like Signal, to message in secret and sometimes met in person, he said.

“They did not go to the Capitol to defend or help; they went to attack,” he said.

An attorney for Rhodes, though, argued that prosecutors built their case on cherry-picked evidence like messages and videos and Oath Keepers were not involved with violence during the riot.

“The story the government is trying to tell you today is completely wrong,” said Rhodes’s lawyer, Phillip Linder. “Even though it may look inflammatory, they did nothing illegal.”

The stakes are high for the Justice Department, which last secured a seditious conspiracy conviction at trial nearly 30 years ago.

About 900 people have been charged and hundreds convicted in the Capitol attack. Rioters stormed past police barriers, engaged in hand-to-hand combat with officers, smashed windows and temporarily halted the certification of Biden’s electoral victory.

But the Oath Keepers are the first to stand trial on seditious conspiracy, a rare Civil War-era charge that carries up to 20 years behind bars. The trial is expected to last several weeks.

Prosecutors told jurors that the insurrection for the antigovernment group was not a spontaneous outpouring of election-fueled rage but part of a drawn-

out plot to stop Biden from entering the White House.

On trial with Rhodes, of Granbury, Texas, are Kelly Meggs, leader of the Florida chapter of the Oath Keepers; Kenneth Harrelson, another Florida Oath Keeper; Thomas Caldwell, a retired U.S. Navy intelligence officer from Virginia; and Jessica Watkins, who led an Ohio militia group. They face several other charges as well.

Prosecutors say Rhodes began plotting to overturn Biden’s victory just days after the election.

He provided the group in November with a step-by-step plan based on a popular uprising that brought down Yugoslavia’s president two decades earlier, Nestler said.

By December, authorities say, Rhodes and the Oath Keepers had set their sights on Congress’ certification of the Electoral College vote on Jan. 6.

Nestler read a host of messages, saying they showed the group becoming became increasingly desperate for action as the date approached. On Christmas Day, Meggs wrote they would have to make senators very “uncomfortable.” Rhodes said in one message that Trump “needs to know that if he fails to act, then we will.” When asked about a possible civil war, Caldwell responded: “I’m starting it the night of the 6th, if necessary.”

The Oath Keepers organized training, including one session that was recorded on video and set to rock music, and stashed “weapons of war” at a Virginia hotel so they could get them into the capital quickly if necessary, prosecutors said.

Jan. 6 videos and photos were shown in court of Oath Keepers dressed in helmets, protective vests and other military gear marching toward the Capitol and pushing into the building.

When Watkins declared on the walkie-talkie app Zello that they were in the building, someone responded: “Get it, Jess. ... Everything we (expletive) trained for.”

The air was heavy with pepper spray and smoke as Watkins tried to push toward the Senate chamber, Nestler said. “Simply entering the building was not enough,” he said. They “needed to do more, they needed to actually get to the senators.”

Some Oath Keepers went toward the House of Representatives to look for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi but couldn’t find her, prosecutors allege.

Rhodes remained outside, “like a general surveying his troops on a battlefield,” Nestler said.

After the attack, the Oath Keepers were “elated,” the prosecutor said. “They were boastful, they were proud. They were

prepared to continue their efforts, even escalating their use of force, to accomplish their goal.”

In the days between the riot and Biden’s inauguration, Rhodes spent more than $17,000 on firearm parts, ammunition and other items, prosecutors say. Around the time of the inauguration, Rhodes told others to organize local militias to oppose the Democratic administration, authorities say.

“Patriots entering their own Capitol to send a message to the traitors is NOTHING compared to what’s coming,” Rhodes wrote in a message the evening of Jan. 6.

But that bravado quickly turned to worry as the Oath Keepers realized how much trouble they could be in, Neslter said.

Rhodes sped out of a restaurant while having dinner that evening and drove through the night back to Texas when he got word that police were looking for people involved in the riot, he said. He urged the Oath Keepers not to talk about what happened at the Capitol, saying in one message: “Let me put it in infantry speak: SHUT THE (EXPLETIVE) UP!” Defense attorneys have said the Oath Keepers came to Washington only to provide security at events for figures such as Trump ally Roger Stone before the president’s big outdoor rally behind the White House. Rhodes has said there was no plan to attack the Capitol and that the members who did acted on their own.

Defense lawyers are poised to argue that jurors cannot find him guilty of seditious conspiracy because all the actions he took before Jan. 6 were in preparation for orders he anticipated from Trump — orders that never came.

Rhodes’ attorney has said that his client will eventually take the stand to argue that he believed Trump was going to invoke the Insurrection Act and call up a militia, which Rhodes had been calling on him to do to stop Biden from becoming president. He was merely lobbying the president to use a U.S. law.

“They’re not a violent group,” Linder said during an opening statement that was far shorter than the prosecutor’s remarks. “Rhodes is extremely patriotic ... he loves this country.”

Nestler took aim at the Insurrection Act claim, saying it was only an attempt to cover up Rhodes’ illegal scheme. “Rhodes, with a law degree was careful with his own words. Rather than say out loud their plan, they used a code - or shorthand - the Insurrection Act,” he said.

In one message from December 2020, Rhodes wrote that Trump “needs to know that if he fails to act, then we will.”

Ukraine

Ukraine claws back more territory Russia is trying to annex

By Jon Gambrell Associated Press

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian forces scored more gains in their counteroffensive across a broad front Monday, advancing in the very areas Russia is trying to annex and challenging its effort to bolster its military with fresh troops and its threats to defend incorporated areas by all means, including with nuclear weapons.

In their latest breakthrough, Ukrainian forces penetrated Moscow’s defenses in the strategic southern Kherson region, one of the four areas in Ukraine that Russia is absorbing.

Ukraine’s advances have become so apparent that even Russia’s Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov, who usually focuses on his own military’s successes and the enemy’s losses, was forced to acknowledge it.

“With numerically superior tank units in the direction of Zolota Balka and Oleksandrivka, the enemy managed to forge deep into our defenses,” Konashenkov said, referring to two towns. He coupled that with claims that Russian forces inflicted heavy losses on Ukraine’s military.

Ukrainian forces have struggled to retake the Kherson region, in contrast to its breakout offensive in the northeast around the country’s second-largest city of Kharkiv that began last month.

As the front lines shifted, the political theater in Moscow continued, with Russia’s lower house of parliament rubber-stamping annexation treaties for Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk and Luhansk to join Russia. The upper house will follow suit Tuesday as a culmination of annexation “referendums” the Kremlin orchestrated last week — actions the U.N. chief and Western nations have said are illegal.

Russia’s moves to incorporate the Ukrainian regions, as well as President Vladimir Putin’s effort to mobilize more troops, have been done so hastily that government officials have struggled to explain and implement them. Putin admitted last week that some of the men called up had been mistakenly selected and ordered them sent home. On Monday, the issue was even more basic: Exactly what areas of Ukraine is Russia trying to incorporate?

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Donetsk and Luhansk are joining Russia with the administrative borders that existed before a conflict erupted there in 2014 between pro-Russian

separatists and Ukrainian forces. But he added that the borders of the two other regions — Zaporizhzhia and Kherson — are undecided.

“We will continue to discuss that with residents of those regions,” Peskov said, without elaborating.

A senior Russian lawmaker offered a different view. Pavel Krasheninnikov said Zaporizhzhia will be absorbed within its “administrative borders,” meaning Moscow will incorporate parts of the region still under Kyiv’s control. He said similar logic will apply to Kherson, but that Russia will include two districts of the neighboring Mykolaiv region that Moscow holds.

Putin’s land grab has threatened to push the conflict to a dangerous new level, with he and his top officials warning of the potential use of nuclear weapons and ordering the partial troop mobilization.

It also prompted Ukraine to apply for fast-track NATO membership.

Ukraine has pressed its counteroffensive in the Kherson region since the summer, relentlessly pummeling Russian supply lines and making inroads into Russian-held areas west of the Dnieper River. The Uk rainian militar y has successfully used U.S.-supplied HIMARS multiple rocket launchers to repeatedly hit the main bridge across the Dnieper and a dam that served as a second main crossing. It also has struck pontoon bridges that Russia has used to supply its troops.

In addition to the Kherson region areas cited by Russia’s Defense Ministry, various sources showed Ukrainian flags, soldiers deployed or other unconfirmed signs that Kyiv’s forces had retaken the villages of Arkhanhelske, Myroliubivka, K h r e shc hen iv k a, Myk h a l iv k a a nd Novovorontsovka.

The situation in the regional capital, also called Kherson, was so precarious that Russian authorities are restricting people from leaving, Ukraine’s presidential office said.

The Moscow-appointed K herson regional head, Vladimir Saldo, said Ukrainian troops tried to advance toward Dudchany along the Dnieper’s western bank, seeking to reach a key dam at Nova Kakhovka, but that Russian warplanes destroyed two Ukrainian battalions and halted the offensive. Saldo added that Russian forces fended off Ukraine’s attempted inroads into the Kherson region from Mykolaiv and Kryvyi Rih. His claims couldn’t be independently verified.

Despite successful strikes on supply

lines, Ukraine’s offensive in the south has been less successful than in the northeast, as the open terrain exposes attacking forces to Russian artillery and airstrikes. Still, Russian military bloggers close to Moscow have acknowledged that Ukraine has superior manpower, backed by tanks, in the area.

A Russian-installed official in the Kherson region, Kirill Stremousov, said in a video that the Ukrainian forces “have broken through a little deeper” but insisted that “everything is under control” and that Russia’s “defense system is working.”

Ukraine reported advances in other areas Russia is annexing. The Ukrainian governor of the Luhansk region, Serhiy Haidai, said Kyiv’s forces retook the village of Torske, just 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the city of Kreminna.

Ukrainian military analyst Oleh Zhdanov said the Kreminna-Svatove area is highly strategic.

“Kreminna is key for controlling the entire Luhansk region, because further beyond (the city) the Russians don’t have any more lines of defenses,” he told The Associated Press. “Retaking this city opens up operational space for Ukrainians to rapidly advance to the very state border with Russia.”

Zhdanov said Russian troops in that area had retreated from the Kharkiv region. In the Kharkiv region across the Oskil River 50 kilometers (31 miles) north of Lyman, Ukraine’s army reportedly liberated most of Borova. Local officials posted a video while driving along

recently recaptured streets, waving the Ukrainian flag through a window.

“Finally, you are home. Finally, it’s Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine!” someone yelled from the street.

Ukraine has also taken back a strategic eastern city, Lyman, which the Russians had used as a key logistics and front-line transport hub. Lyman is in the Donetsk region near the border with Luhansk.

Ukraine’s push to recapture territory has embarrassed the Kremlin and prompted rare domestic criticism of Putin’s war. Tens of thousands of Russian men have fled Russia after the call-up on Sept. 21. Many flew to Turkey, one of the few countries still with air links to Russia. Others have left in cars, creating long traffic jams at the Russian borders to Georgia, Kazakhstan and Finland, among others.

The criticism of Russia from at home and abroad has only spurred senior Russian officials to defend Putin’s actions more strongly.

A dd r e ssi ng l aw m a k er s, For e ig n Minister Sergey Lavrov accused the United States of rallying allies to counter Russia in Ukraine. He said it was just like Nazi Germany relied on the resources of most of Europe when it invaded the Soviet Union in 1941.

“The U.S. has mobilized practically all of the collective West to turn Ukraine into an instrument of war against Russia, just as Hitler mobilized military resources of most European nations to attack the Soviet Union,” Lavrov said.

Wisconsin’s Leonhard gets his shot under tough circumstances

By Steve Megargee Associated Press

Jim Leonhard would have preferred much different circumstances, but the former Wisconsin safety and NFL veteran has been given the opportunity to lead his alma mater’s football program.

How long he has this chance depends on whether he can help Wisconsin salvage a season that’s gone so far off track that it resulted in former coach Paul Chryst’s firing over the weekend. Leonhard acknowledged feeling mixed emotions about his appointment due to his respect for Chryst.

“It’s a dream for myself coming out of that nightmare,” Leonhard said Sunday night at the news conference announcing Chryst’s exit.

Wisconsin (2-3, 0-2 Big Ten) opened this season ranked 18th but finds itself in last place in the Big Ten West Division after losing the last two weeks by a combined margin of 55 points, including a 34-10 drubbing at home Saturday against an Illinois team led by former Badgers coach Bret Bielema.

That led to athletic director Chris McIntosh’s midseason decision to fire Chryst, a former Wisconsin player who had gone 67-26 since taking over in 2015.

Selecting Leonhard as interim head coach wasn’t nearly as surprising.

Leonhard, a former walk-on, developed into an All-American at Wisconsin before beginning a 10-year NFL career.

He joined Chryst’s staff at Wisconsin in 2016 and became defensive coordinator the following year.

“I really became who I am at the University of Wisconsin and in this football program and around so many people that are still here today,” said Leonhard, who turns 40 on Oct. 27. “To have an opportunity to be in this position is not one that I take lightly.”

The moment was still difficult for Leonhard because it came at Chryst’s expense. Chryst was on the staff during Leonhard’s college playing career.

Leonhard noted he had no coaching experience when Chryst put him on Wisconsin’s staff.

Leonhard’s defenses annually have ranked among the nation’s best, though the Badgers have taken a step back this season after replacing eight of their top 10 tacklers. Wisconsin allowed the fewest yards per game and yards per play of any Football Bowl Subdivision team last year.

“I’m confident nobody can do it better at this moment in time than Jim,” McIntosh said.

Leonhard’s immediate task is to boost the spirits of players stunned by their coach’s abrupt exit as they get ready to visit Northwestern (1-4, 1-1) on Saturday.

Wisconsin players conveyed their support of Chryst via social media on Sunday night.

Outside linebacker Nick Herbig tweeted, “Still at a loss 4 words, but one thing I do know is we playing this season for you Coach!! Love you beyond measure.”

Running back Braelon Allen tweeted, “Anyone who wanted Coach Chryst gone isn’t a part of this team.” “(For) a majority of these players, a huge determining factor in coming to Wisconsin was coach Chryst,” Leonhard said. “(They’re) very shaken with the news.”

The last seven regular-season games now essentially serve as an audition as Leonhard tries to show he should have the job for keeps.

“I feel like I can take this opportunity and help this place grow,” Leonhard said.

“That’s why I came back a number of years ago. It’s why I haven’t left.”

The Badgers believe they can still make something of this year.

They want to avoid their first losing season since a 5-7 finish in 2001. The wide-open nature of the Big Ten West, where every team has at least one conference loss, means they still have a chance of competing for the division title.

First they must get back to playing the way they usually do. Wisconsin hasn’t looked like itself so far, piling up penalties and missing consistent production from the offensive line that the Badgers typically get. Illinois essentially beat Wisconsin at its own game Saturday, outrushing the Badgers 137-2 and collecting five sacks.

Leonhard said he wanted the Badgers to turn things around in part to show their appreciation for Chryst.

“His family and this program mean everything to him,” Leonhard said. “I think it’s our duty, my duty as a coach to get our staff and players to rally behind him and really fulfill everything that he had envisioned for this team, which we still think is out there.”

Starting a backyard orchard

BY GRANT MCCARTY CONTRIBUTOR

Fall is a very good time to start making decisions on growing fruit trees in the backyard. Because many apples and pears are harvested during this time, you have the ability to taste di�erent varieties to determine which ones you may want to grow. Due to the current weather, it’s recommended to plant your orchard in the spring. You’ll also find additional varieties than what you might find now.

Apples and pears grow well in Northern Illinois while peaches, plums, and tart cherries depend on the season. When growing these fruit trees, you will need or benefit with more than one variety

for cross-pollination depending on the type of fruit tree. This means that if you only had space for four trees you would want to ensure that it was not merely ‘Honeycrisp’ but a mixture of di�erent varieties blooming at the same time.

Our cold winters impact the buds of peaches, plums, and tart cherries. These buds can become damaged/destroyed when temperatures dip below -8F for consistent days which can lead to no yields that summer. You should not expect fruit from this group every year. Most peach trees thrived in 2022 while tart cherries performed poorly. That is a bit unusual as tart cherries are consistent most years. Pears and apples would be

able to survive this cold period but are more susceptible to late spring frosts.

Our weather is the main reason that we do not recommend sweet cherry trees as not only do their buds need to survive the winter but you also need more than one variety. Peach and tart cherry trees will produce fruit even if you only have one of these trees in your backyard.

After you have decided on variety, you need to think about the actual height of your tree. Dwarf, semi-dwarf, and standard are the main types of fruit trees available. A dwarf tree will reach 8-10 feet followed by semi-dwarf with 10-15 feet, and finally a standard with 18-25 feet in height. If you are unsure of

if you have enough space for many fruit trees, a good rule of thumb is that you should space a fruit tree based on it’s height. If it will reached 10-15 ft, space all the trees 10-15ft apart. Much of the height is due to a rootstock. A rootstock has a di�erent genetic material below ground than what’s above ground. The rootstock allows for the tree to reach a certain height, be resistant to diseases, and able to withstand our cold winters in Northern Illinois.

Next week I’ll discuss more about getting the backyard orchard set up.

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Impacts of energy shortage

BY DRS. ROBERT & SONIA VOGL ILLINOIS RENEWABLE ENERGY ASSOCIATION CONTRIBUTORS

expands. Currently we are experiencing some of its impacts in the form of high prices on fuel, electricity and food. For Europe the situation is best described as a crisis. The shutdown of natural gas supplies is having massive impacts on both their economy and the lives of their citizens. Liquified natural gas shipments from the United States o�set some loss of gas but contribute to the rise in costs for U.S. citizens and industries. Coal plants are put back into service accelerating carbon emissions.

The recent sabotage of the Nordstream pipeline intensifies the di�cult energy situation for countries in the European Union. Their energy crisis was initially seen as making for a stress filled winter.

The destruction of the pipeline extends their energy crisis into next year if not longer. If other pipelines are targeted, consequences will intensify.

Natural gas is widely used in the production of nitrogen fertilizer. This past spring farmers, particularly in Europe, had di�culty securing adequate

supplies since availability from Russia for both it and natural gas for its production were limited. Without adequate nitrogen supplies, yields from crops like corn, which is widely used, will be lower, translating into higher prices.

Food scarcity and high prices are rising in Europe; pressure is increasing on governments to respond to the crisis. Both energy and food rationing are being discussed and are likely to be implemented.

In the U.S. in spring, nitrogen fertilizer was in short supply and high in price.

Some local sources of supply were out of both nitrogen and wheat seed. Some farmers have yet to secure adequate nitrogen supplies for next spring’s crop.

With the high price of natural gas, farmers may choose to grow crops that require less nitrogen fertilizer. Reducing its use has water quality benefits and may lead to a reduction in the dead zone where the Mississippi empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Similar dead zones exist in other parts of the world where nitrogen laden

waters empty into the ocean.

This past summer we saw acres of sorghum grown in a dairy area of Wisconsin. According to National Sorghum Producers, it is a non-GMO, gluten free grain used as livestock feed and a popular food for residents of Asia and Africa. It is nutritious and requires less water and fertilizer than the far more popular corn. If nitrogen supplies remain limited and costly the market for sorghum might increase.

Another issue related to adequate supplies of food is the availability of fuel to harvest crops, and in the case of corn dry it prior to marketing. Not only is diesel fuel needed for harvesting crops, it is also essential for delivering them to food processing facilities, to distribution centers and then to stores and customers.

The global economy is dependent on a complex system of supply chains highly dependent on energy supplies to function e�ectively. We are both witnessing and experiencing the vulnerability inherent in a massive, complex system.
