Agricultural workers live close to where they work. Cropdusting is frequent & close to schools. #Uruguay does not regulate aerial crop spraying near towns; glyphosate & other chemicals are dumped into waterways/soil

#China, the world’s biggest emitter of GHGs, is also the biggest producer & consumer of low-carbon energy. China is coming up with solutions that are for everyone, not just China. For the past 18 months, its CO2 emissions have been flat or falling #Chinesesolarthermalplant

Global demands for #greenofficebuildings has slowed since Trump became president. Residential and commercial buildings together accounted for 34% of global carbon emissions in 2023,

#COP30chief has a clear recognition of the problem—rich countries have lost enthusiasm for tackling the climate crisis. More countries should follow China’s lead instead of complaining about being outcompeted. No US officials are attending.

#USDistrictJudgeDanaChristensen dismissed a #lawsuitfiledbyyoungclimateactivists that aimed to halt #Trump’spro-fossilfuelexecutiveorders. Although conceding the overwhelming evidence, he ruled that taking action was not feasible. >40 people from coal/oil/gas are part of Trump’s administration.

#Cleanrenewableenergy will be produced by hydrokinetic underwater power systems using the natural flow velocity of the RhineRiver. German startup Energyminer GmbH plans 124 Energyfishes on the river, mostly submerged underwater produces electricity continuously 24 hours/day, 15 MWh/year

#Trump’sextrajudicialkillingspree in the Caribbean & Pacific has reached 80. 13 attacks initially focused on Venezuela have now included Colombia. UK attorneys have condemned them.
USSGeraldFord, largest US aircraft carrier, is now in the Caribbean.

This is no ordinary corruption. #Statecapturerewritestherules—or just ignores them. The machinery of democracy is turned into a mechanism for the enrichment & power of those now in charge. Elections become a meaningless façade.

Trump is unhappy with Mamdani’s win & has said he will withhold funds to NYC.

#DonorstoTrump’sEpsteinballroom have $279B in federal contracts #ExtremityCare sells bandages to Medicare for $thousands per square inch; it – donated $5M to $MAGAInc on February 24. 6 days later Trump undid a Biden rule that would have barred Medicare from covering its products.

#EliteDems have not yet accepted Mamdani’s victory & the reasons for it.
#JusticeDemocrats: Zohran’s victory should put every single entrenched, corporate Democrat on notice – if
you’re not serving the interests of everyday people, your time in office is limited.

45% of #globalmeatconsumption is growing in upper-middle-income countries including China/India/Brazil/ Indonesia/the Philippines. Poultry is projected to grow by 21% by 2034 & is estimated to provide 45% of the protein consumed from all meat sources because it is relatively cheap to produce.

#UKEnvironmentAgency: 800kng of EEA-NH4 was being emitted into the River Wye annually. Regulators measuring “forever chemicals” near #AGCChemicalsplant are not testing for a substance made by the company itself & emitted in large volumes, despite evidence it could be reprotoxic

#BeeBrickBrighton had a similar idea to increase pollinator habitat. Brighton & Hove have adopted a policy stipulating that all new buildings taller than 5 meters should include bee and swift bricks.

#Swiftbricks—one per new home—were endorsed by Labor’sEnvironmentSecretary last year. Not any more now that he has become HousingSecretary. It cannot be cost. #Intransigenceperhaps? Swift population has dropped by 66%

#Magaisnotabouttochange. If the Democratic party won’t change, what new political party will rise to oppose both it & Maga? Greenparties in other countries are rising as the USGreenParty is silent. #SchumerdidnotendorseMamdani; #Jefferiesgrudgingly&verylateendorsedhim
