The Strait of Hormuz has been closed since February 28, halting vessel traffic and creating an emerging supply gap. This critical waterway previously handled 30-35% of global crude oil, 20% of natural gas, and up to 30% of internationally traded fertilizers.

While existing stocks currently prevent immediate food price hikes, continued closure will lead to higher energy, fertilizer, and commodity prices by late 2026/2027. Farmers face increased input costs, requiring urgent support, especially for low-income, import-dependent nations. This global disruption, exacerbated by potential export restrictions, demands timely diplomatic and policy interventions to avert a global food crisis.

Dr. Katrin Schuhen and her team at Wasser 3.0 (www.wasserdreinull.com) offer a groundbreaking, sustainable approach to remove micropollutants from water. Since 2012, their interdisciplinary expertise has developed cost-effective solutions to eliminate microplastics, pharmaceuticals, and other contaminants.

These flexible methods improve water quality and protect ecosystems globally. A pilot plant in Germany has successfully removed microplastics from urban wastewater since 2019. Dr. Schuhen, with a background in polymer chemistry, is driven by a mission to prevent micropollutants from entering our environment and bodies. This talk was given at a TEDx event; learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.
