After years of ineffective fireworks ban during Diwali, India's supreme court said it's allowing "limited use of green crackers" in an attempt to balance culture and environment. But experts are sceptical.

Air quality in Delhi has already plunged.

Can ‘green’ fireworks really prevent Diwali air pollution bomb in Delhi?

So-called green fireworks may emit less smoke than conventional ones in controlled tests but scientists and doctors are sceptical about difference in real-world impact

Paris Agreement is helping many regions of the world avoid some of the worst possible outcomes of climate change, but it's not working fast enough, researchers say

Paris Agreement is working too slowly to prevent dangerous global heat

Planet may experience 57 fewer extremely hot days a year if all countries meet their current emissions targets and limit global warming to 2.6C this century

Probably. I saw the video when I didn't know what happened. I thought he was shot from another building nearby and he was surrounded by a large crowd.

But I will admit I have zero knowledge about guns and how they work.

As a non-American, the craziest part for me was that a random 22-year-old had sniper level skills and access to professional grade weapons. I don't think most gun owners outside can shoot with such precision.

But sure make it about "left wing"

Just 14 companies were responsible for a third of additional heat.

US has become an unreliable destination now for many

Bill Grueskin @bgrueskin.bsky.social · Aug 22

Your occasional reminder -- as arrivals on student visas decrease 28% -- that tuition from foreign students counts as an export, which means that every rejected student visa is going to contribute to the US trade deficit.
