David Attenborough is right, “if we continue on our current path, we will face the collapse of everything.” We know what we need to do, it’s the corruption & lies of the fossil fuel companies & our leaders that makes extinction more likely. We need zero emissions within 5yrs!

Because there are no direct flights between Congo and Hong Kong, health officials will focus on flights from South Africa and Ethiopia.

Again, this is why Trump and his inner circle are so hellbent in making Ukraine sign a land cessation agreement. It's a resource grab.
The primary goal of Russia's invasion of Ukraine is to steal their resources and meet its broader strategy of market monopolization and price manipulation. Ukraine holds over 110 billion tons of proven mineral reserves across 100+ resource types. It is valued between $15 - $26 trillion. #opcanary 🧵
