Using old coal mines to heat homes?
Gateshead is doing it.
Their mine-water project—the UK’s largest—draws 15°C water from boreholes, uses heat pumps to boost it to 80°C, and sends that heat through an underground network.
The system now warms 350+ homes and 23 buildings.

Young American men volunteer for military service, knowing they may have to sacrifice their lives for their country.
But they didn't volunteer to sacrifice their futures to protect the President or Secretary of Defense from being convicted of crimes.
That's not the service for which we thank them.

Russia destroyed 100% of Odesa’s energy infrastructure. All substations were destroyed by missiles and drones.
The city has been completely left without electricity, hot water, and heating for over one million people, including all critical infrastructure.

The US-Russia 28-point peace proposal includes the recognition of Crimea, Luhansk and Donetsk as “de facto” Russian. Ownership of territories bordering the sea is critical for securing shipping routes and ports that play a vital role in supporting economic growth within these areas.

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔
