1/3 It has to be said loud and clear properly because even the Israeli government recognizes it in other euphemistic words: Israel is perpetrating genocide in #Gaza with the aim of deporting Palestinians and ethnic cleansing Palestine, including West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Israel has turned 70% of Gaza into no-go zones, in maps
Since Israel broke the ceasefire, it has declared most of Gaza as no-go or displacement zones.

A year ago, The Post documented the heartbreaking story of 6-year-old Hind Rajab and the paramedics who were killed trying to save her in Gaza (free link). Read this article (a Pulitzer finalist) and think of the children starving in Gaza today. www.washingtonpost.com/world/intera...
Palestinian paramedics said Israel gave them safe passage to save a 6-year-old girl in Gaza. They were all killed.
A Washington Post examination raises questions about Israel’s assertion that its forces were “not present near the vehicle or within the firing range” of 6-year-old Hind Rajab.

Israel has literally announced their final solution to eradicate the Palestinians of Gaza and I have to keep pretending to care about my job?

Medios que se dicen de izquierda cubriendo profusamente el Cónclave católico en portada y con minuto y resultado. Curiosa forma de tratar ciertas dictaduras patriarcales y ultraconservadoras (digan lo que digan, ultraconservadoras).

THE FOUR STAGES OF PRO-FOSSIL EXPLOITATION OF MAJOR BLACKOUTS

[a thread with videos]

Stage 1: Guilt By Proximity - "any blackout that happens in a region with renewable energy must have been caused by renewable energy"

[we are in the later end of this stage -see, FT, Bloomberg (Blas), etc]

Que El Inmundo enviara a un ateo a cubrir la visita del Papa a Mitilene (¡y hasta pagara sus gastos!) fue todo un puntazo. Una de las coberturas más bonitas y enriquecedora, con gente maravillosa que compartió conmigo sus experiencias y dicha. Francisco era católico, pero además era buena persona.

Notably, Donald Trump made saving coal a top priority of his first term. It didn't work.

Between 2016, the year before Trump was inaugurated, and the end of 2020, coal production and employment decreased by 26.5% and 18.2%, respectively.

“I am ashamed for my nation; even if Congress acts to support and aid Ukraine, it cannot restore the American honor lost today.”

AI mistakenly tagged an Excel spreadsheet of Palestinian high school students as a list of militants in the system that Israel uses to decide how to launch strikes. apnews.com/article/isra...
As Israel uses US-made AI models in war, concerns arise about tech’s role in who lives and who dies
U.S. tech giants have quietly empowered Israel to track and kill many more alleged militants more quickly in Gaza and Lebanon through a sharp spike in artificial intelligence and computing services.

How did the EU's electricity mix change in the last year?

☀️ Big growth in solar
☢️ 🌊 Rebound in nuclear & hydro
💨 Not so much growth in wind
🏭 Large drop in fossil fuels (both coal and gas)
🔌 Demand up

Elon Musk nació en Sudáfrica porque sus abuelos, que eran canadienses nazis admiradores de Hitler, defendían tanto el Apartheid que se fueron a vivir en Sudáfrica. Por supuesto que sabe lo que significa ese gesto y lo hizo dos veces. Es ridículo que la mayoría de medios que no lo quieran afirmar.

La narrativa israelí promovida por la mayoría de los medios occidentales coloca siempre los Altos del Golán al margen del mapa sirio, cuando es un territorio sirio ocupado ilegalmente por Israel desde 1967. Es una "distorsión" casi constante. Aquí en The Economist.

I want to share my experience today with Google support, trying to get Gemini (their AI/plagiarism machine) turned off in my Google workspace account. That account is where I personally do all my work communication—I am an editor, and most of my work contracts explicitly ban any use of Generative AI

EXCLUSIVE from @jael.bsky.social: Major groups in the anti-offshore wind movement are going big, submitting a lengthy policy wish list to the Trump transition team, according to documents obtained and first reported by Heatmap News.

If even only a few of these ideas are enacted, it would be a harbinger of doom for wind energy in America.

All surface temperature products for 2024 are now live.

All show 2024 is the warmest year (very clearly).

The estimates of the change since the pre-industrial (1850-1900) are more uncertain but range from 1.46 to 1.62ºC.

It is therefore *likely* this was the first year that exceeded 1.5ºC.
