This is a good but depressing piece by the excellent Isabel Hilton. How sad and cynical that some Chinese-made green tech comes with hidden software that could allow these systems to be hacked. And just when China is doing amazing things with green tech.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Now official - the EU has weakened its planned 2040 emissions reduction target at the insistence of national governments.
