Australia is facing a critical shortage of urea, an essential component for fertilizer and "AdBlue" diesel exhaust fluid, threatening the national supply chain. In a related look at food industry legalities, the segment recalls the $6 billion defamation lawsuit brought by Beef Products Inc. against ABC News over the "pink slime" reports. This legal history is cited as the reason why mainstream media is hesitant to report on the ingredients used by major food processors.
