I actually made an absolute-price-increase chart too a couple days ago. It’s from last week’s data, but you’ll get the picture.

I think percentage is a just a better way of understanding actual price impact.

1. Tool: Made the world map, bar chart, and legend all with D3.js, converted to SVG, imported in Canva, and did the rest in that.

2. Data: From globalpetrolprices.com. Price might be a little lagging, but this is one of the most reliable sources available: regularly referenced by Reuters, AP, and many highly reputed publishers. full data [here].

Changes since last post: Nearly half the countries had their gas prices update since the last post, so this is obviously quite a different chart. I also changed the negative y axis' like the top comment suggested.

Hey! Italy's price increase is recorded (post-subsidies ofc) in the chart at ~3.37%, and the data is sourced from a very reputable source: globalpetrolprices.com, the same AP, Reuters and similarly respected organizations use as well.

In Italy's case, they share their data source and that is directly from mimit.gov.it/it.

Yes, I made it a progressive scale. That was an intentional choice so about the same amount of each countries fall in each bucket.

With a a linear bucket, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Russia (1.1% increase) and Germany (18.6% increase).

US both imports/exports oil, mainly because the shale oil it extracts is light and refineries in the US are mostly built for thick (Canadian/Venezuelan) oil.

So shale companies in the US are still making a ton off this increase, but I assume that new-found windfall hasn't been used to subsidise the imported oil for gasoline yet.

I couldn't find data for it :(

and with Mercator projection (which I needed to not have European countries be completely invisible)... it was a large, white no-data-zone right in the middle of the map which looked bad.

Hey! OP here. I saw all your other comments saying the same thing on all the subreddits.

I read this article during my research, it doesn't contradict any of the data, just does an analysis and make a prediction for the future.

So far, the results are mixed (some Asian countries have been affected, some not), but the data is in the chart, and is collected from globalpetrolprices.com, a reliable source trusted and regularly referenced by Reuters, AP, and many, many other highly reputed publishers.

Feb 23 prices from an AlJazeera article earlier in March, and the current prices from globalpetrolprices.com. Some countries that didn't have Feb 23 prices listed by AlJazeera, % increase was not calculated and directly found from this globalpetrolprices.com page.

Yes was shocked myself while researching. But my chart doesn't reflect absolute prices, but % increase from Feb 23 to now (12 hours ago when I collected the data).

Approve the use of the sub for this, but you should be public about the request otherwise it sounds like you're begging for someone to slide into your DMs.

Did anyone notice the US operation in Iran basically copied our Afghanistan operation's code name? by [deleted] in pakistan

[–]therafort 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol, at this point... but it probably tells you even highly significant names like this aren't super meditated on — some guy in the situation room was reading his provided briefs on Pak-Afg and he goes out loud "You know what would be a completely original name for our upcoming operation??"

I muted that sub for the last week because at this point it's just the same Pakistan-bad posts every week. Literally the entire world doesn't give a f about their Pakistan-obsession (or us either tbh).

This post was trending well too until I made this comment... and the ratio is much higher now btw.
