Ok, for all del. La oss gå gjennom kjennelsen fra Sogn og Fjordane tingrett i saken midlertidig forføyning mot gruvedeponiet i Engebøfjellet
Ny rettsavgjer i Førdefjorden-saka: Tingretten seier ja til sjødeponi inntil vidare
Tingretten stansar ikkje tømminga av gruveavfall i tida fram til Høgsterett har avgjort saka. Naturvernorganisasjonane må betale 2,5 millionar kroner i sakskostnadar.

Getting Rosalind Franklin’s story right is crucial, because she has become a role model for women going into science

What Rosalind Franklin truly contributed to the discovery of DNA’s structure
Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

This is good reporting on the disaster in Alaska if you're looking for a reliable summary.

This is a bigger disaster than I think most are realizing. 1500 people have been displaced by the flooding with an exceptionally complicated response and recovery.

my takeaway from climate week nyc is that "climate storytelling" is a little too much "we must reimagine our deepest souls in relationship to mother nature and the moral abyss of the polycrisis into which we must now stare" and not enough "ok but get a heat pump"

At the UN today Trump called climate change the ‘greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world.’

Congrats to the clever plotters for enlisting the planet’s glaciers, oceans and forests in their scheme.

It's not your imagination: Wildfire smoke in the U.S. has dramatically worsened since 2019. According to a new study, it's already killing 41,000 people a year - and it's poised to get much worse.

new from me @johnmuyskens.bsky.social and @sadbumblebee.buzz

www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...
Record wildfire smoke kills more people each year than car crashes. It’s about to get worse.
The past six summers have been the smokiest on record. New research shows that smoke could become the costliest consequence of climate change for Americans.

Jeg er rasende.

2023: De tvinger ny firefelts motorvei gjennom Lågendeltaet naturreservat spesifikt verna mot veibygging. De framstiller det som at dette omtrent går i pluss for fuglene, for det kommer ei hel pakke miljøtiltak som kompensasjon.

2025: Det viktigste miljøtiltaket faller.
Skulle veie opp for E6-utbygging, nå vil Nye Veier droppe miljøtiltaket
Restaurering av Gausaelva skulle vurderes som kompensasjon for E6-utbyggingen gjennom Lågendeltaet. Nå foreslår Nye Veier å skrinlegge prosjektet.

Online chatter suggests that the DOE Climate Change (Denying) Working Group has been disbanded and the report will be withdrawn. 😂

Seems that violating FACA and the Information Quality Acts have consequences.

Not seen any official announcement though.
