"Lake Urmia, once the largest lake in the Middle East, has lost over 90% of its water since the 1970s due to damming, drought, and agricultural demands.... This ecological catastrophe serves as a stark warning about the consequences of water mismanagement in an era of climate change"

De energiemarkt privatiseren in een tijd dat je a. wist hoe ernstig de klimaatcrisis was en b. op je klompen kon aanvoelen hoe goedkoop duurzame energie ging worden, was misschien niet zo slim.

Als thuisbatterijen zo talrijk worden dat ze effectief pieken in het groene stroomaanbod opvangen is dat een groot succes waarvan iedereen profiteert.
Maar deze economen presenteren het als mislukking, omdat "het hebben van een thuisbatterij daardoor minder winstgevend" is.
Ik vind dat kortzichtig.

While passenger planes fly across the skies over Europe, in Ukraine the skies are filled with Russian missiles and drones. One continent, but two different realities.

Also. Next time someone tells you Ru is invading Ukraine preemptively to stop it from joining NATO, show them this and laugh in their face. Blaming these genocidal politics on Ru feeling insecure is peak ignorance or gaslighting.

Next time any piece of shit politician tells you that "these are russian territories", "everyone speaks russian there" and so on - show them this. That is the "how" and the "why". It is called ethnocide and has been done numerous times by russia over the past centuries, to erase us.

It’s clear that the primary interest of the US in “peace negotiations” is to create opportunities for Trump, Witkoff, their family members, business partners and cronies to make billions from business deals with Russia, and Ukraine is just the annoying nuisance in the way.

It’s not a bias. It’s a transaction. Tens of millions of Ukrainian lives and the remnants of American respectability in exchange for an increase in the private fortunes of a few people.

How does fever work?

Our new Science paper shows how elevated body temperature can protect against severe influenza and that avian-origin viruses escape this defence.

This is likely one reason why bird flus and some pandemic influenzas can be so severe.🧵

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

Such activity from Putin clearly shows that the other sides are close to a deal and forcing Putin to peace. Putin also realizes that in case he refuses the sanctions will be enhanced and a full dependence of Russia from China will follow.
