By choosing to no longer decarbonise, NZ is choosing to be poorer. Continued fossil fuel dependency means forever volatile import costs, increased public health burden, and international market risk. Economically stoopid.

This President and his Project 2025 administration pose an existential threat to the sense of a worldwide community of nations, that gave us the U.N., the Declaration of Human Rights, and the possibility of facing global crises together.

The Trump National Security Strategy is a deeply unserious document—befitting an unserious president. But it is no less dangerous for that. My take: open.substack.com/pub/ivodaald...
Trump's Unserious — But Dangerous — National Security Strategy
Trump's National Security Strategy conveys a flawed, incoherent, and deeply dangerous view of the world and America's role in it. America's allies will shudder; its enemies will rejoice.

30+ years ago, my mind was blown when my computer science professor suggested that one day, applications on our computers would be updated by contacting a remote server.

I don’t think he ever imagined that companies would also disable applications we’ve already paid for and installed.

So in western Alaska, thousands of people are homeless due to flooding rains, one person is dead & two people are missing. But yet, the regime hasn't said a word, no thoughts or prayers, nothing.
Once again, they could care less about Americans, it's about enriching themselves through GREED.
