I will forever be haunted by this footage.
Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity.
What’s so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals don’t just get swept up — they swim for their lives.

Organizers say their purpose is to call for an end to the war on Gaza, push for the thousands of aid trucks stranded outside the Strip to be allowed to enter and pressure their governments to cut ties with Israel and impose sanctions.

Egypt’s naked hostility towards the aid convoy confirms that the Arab masses are on a collision course with their leaders.

As many are saying, there's an information blackout in Gaza at the same time as a massive diversionary strike in Iran. That's a very bad sign of an administration doing things they don't want to be seen until after it's done. Demand to know what's happening in Gaza!

First, Israel cut Gaza’s last internet cable—blacking out 2.3 million people.
Then it bombed Iran with no UN approval, no imminent threat.
As eyes shift to Iran, Israel will escalate its ethnic cleansing in Gaza—and create more regional instability.

The primary energy fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with an equivalent amount of clean energy.
BUT: This is not necessary because conversion losses do not need to be replaced. More than 2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste heat.
