I am mesmerized by this map of MOC. Like when my mind was blown by seeing a world map with the Pacific as the centre of the world
🌊 What is the Meridional Overturning Circulation
and why is it important?

The Meridional Overturning Circulation (#MOC) – critical for transporting heat, carbon, oxygen and nutrients across the globe – is weakening under climate change.

Fossil fuels are the source material for most plastics + for the chemicals added to them. As firms lose their iron grip on energy production, indications are they're shifting to using oil + gas for plastic production, which has more than doubled since 2000 + looks set rise 40% in the next 10 years.

Banal observation, sorry, but conversations in Prague really brought home to me that while countries come and go, cities have a historical existence and character that typically is far more resilient.

For 'simplification' read 'deregulation' + for 'deregulation' read removing all the rules that protect us from polluted air, water, soil, + just relying on those fine chaps at the corporations to do the right thing out of the goodness of their hearts
🗳️ @europarl.europa.eu has voted to 'simplify' corporate sustainability reporting and due diligence.

Sounds technical but it's bad news.

Diluting rules designed to keep big business honest about its impact on people and planet will make it harder for consumers to invest their money sustainably.

On Thursday, Parliament endorsed reduced reporting duties and due diligence requirements for companies.

Why is this something anyone even considered doing?
Environmental groups have won a landmark case against a project to drill for offshore gas in Italy's Po Delta, a UNESCO-designated biosphere reserve.
The 500 km2 wetlands located around an hour south of Venice are some of the largest and richest in the Mediterranean. www.euronews.com/green/2024/1...

Offshoring drilling threatened to submerge parts of the delta, which is already bracing against a barrage of problematic, climate change-induced conditions.

This is exactly my position. Licensed displays only. No bloody idiots setting them off in the street or back garden, sometimes in the small hours, terrifying animals and people, causing injuries or damage that are totally avoidable
I like fireworks but they shouldn't be sold to the general public. Obviously some twat's going to lob one at a paramedic. Garden fireworks are always shit anyway. Go and give the rotary club a fiver and watch a good display in a field with a candyfloss machine and a tombola.
