The near collapse of Iran's state owned Gas Company following crippling western sanctions
11/19/2013
The failure to develop natural gas resources with the withdrawal of Total and other western oil companies and the lack of access to new technologies is severely hurting Iran. Iran sits on top of the world's second largest gas reserves but gas exports are limited to Turkey and Azerbaijan. Qatar which borders a large Iranian gas field has moved to develop its gas reserves with the help of Shell and other oil companies.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
