Kevin Morrison has been a journalist for 17 years, working for the Financial Times, Reuters, Sydney Morning Herald and now with Argus Media, as well as contributing to other publications including BaseMetals.com. During that period he has covered the rise and fall of the dot com bubble and has spent most of this decade writing about the global commodities boom and the emergence of the carbon emissions trading sector for the Financial Times in London and for Argus. This decade Morrison has travelled around the world meeting farmers, miners, oil ministers, financiers, environmentalists, lawyers and policy advisors. His experiences during this period, during which time the commodities world has moved from the obscure to the mainstream, provide the material for this book. His interest in agriculture stems from his parents upbringing on farms and the environment has always been an area of strong interest. Morrison now lives in Sydney with his wife and daughter. This is his first book. See less
