🏫 Connecticut Led in Private School Tuition Fees

Connecticut tops the list of private K-12 tuition in 2024 at $29,133, followed by DC at $27,484 and Massachusetts at $25,529.Rising tuition pressures families and may widen access gaps, particularly outside of major urban centers. High tuition is often linked to smaller class sizes and stronger academic outcomes, though it raises equity concerns. State level voucher programs, such as Florida’s universal school choice initiative, aim to ease affordability challenges.

🍃 China Emitted the Highest Percentage of GHG

China led global green greenhouse gas emissions in 2024 with 29.2%, followed by the US at 11.1% and India at 8.2%, while the EU contributed 5.9%. The concentration among major economies highlights their pivotal role in climate outcomes, even as the EU shows early signs of reversing emissions trends. With developing economies such as India and Indonesia increasing shares, transition pressures grow.  India's GHG policy centers on achieving net zero emissions by 2070, guided by a Long Term Low Emissions Development Strategy (LT-LEDS) and the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC).

🏭 Australia and Chile to Lead Global Lithium Supply

Australia and Chile will remain dominant in global lithium supply through 2030, holding around 41% and 21% respectively of total output. Argentina rises to 14% by 2030, while China and North America edge up to 9–10%. This shift reflects the growing importance of South America’s lithium triangle. The EU Critical Raw Materials Act aims to diversify supply chains and reduce import risks.
