Happy Birthday David Bowie, born this day in 1947.
His 26th and final album "Blackstar" (★) was released on this day in 2016.
David Bowie would pass away just a couple of days later. Rest in Peace.

Many maps, e.g. those using the Mercator projection, distort landmasses the further they are from the equator to maintain straight lines for navigation. I wonder if Trump simply wants Greenland because it looks huge on such maps, when, in reality, it is much smaller than it appears 🤔

McKibben’s point is directionally right, even if simplified. Fossil fuels dominate global shipping ton-miles. Electrification + renewables don’t just cut CO₂ — they collapse fuel logistics chains. Energy becomes local. Trade shifts, ships don’t vanish — but power does.⚡ #disruption #EnergyTransition

Nigel Farage is probably delighted today that Reform have the most members of a political party.
It doesn't have to be this way.
