The mistake being made about Meta is to say they're just doing this to make conservatives happy. They've been doing that a decade+. Removing fact checkers and bringing back political content means there will be more stuff that gets more people mad which creates more engagement. Growth at all costs.

there's a bit of incoherence in a political and cultural establishment decrying violence, in the same country where you can *3-D print a handgun*.

The cybertruck is to our era what Medusa was to ancient Greeks, all who look upon it are stricken mute as stone with the horror of what their eyes just witnessed.Should have named it Gorgon

How a change in rice farming unexpectedly made India’s air so much worse No one anticipated that an initiative to save groundwater by delaying the annual rice season would aggravate northern India’s already miserable air pollution.

An Indian initiative to preserve vanishing groundwater by delaying the annual sowing of rice has led to a dramatic worsening of air pollution in New Delhi and the surrounding region.

Brazil leads new international effort against climate lies β€œCountries cannot tackle this problem individually.”


The only way to take on the industrial-grade climate disinformation machine is with a swift, coordinated approach.

Glad to learn of the launch of this information integrity initiative and see it join the fight to dismantle fossil fuel-funded lies.

There's something I need people to understand.

The studio that made this released some numbers. They had to produce 85 minutes of footage to find 15 usable seconds for this ad.

The machine that creates moving images out of nothing has a failure rate of 340:1 and the best 15 seconds... is this.

Can’t stop thinking about how many Americans voted for Trump because of inflation, and how how US oil companies illegally colluded to fix prices β€” which sent inflationary shock waves through the economy β€” and how Trump is expected to end the investigation on their actions.

A chart showing greenhouse gas emissions since 1990. Canada is the only country shown whose emissions are higher. Other countries including the USA, Japan, and European Union members have all made notable progress.

The rest of our peers are making progress to cut emissions while Canada is uniquely behind. We need to dispense with this idea emissions reductions are too difficult to do fast & the idea international climate diplomacy is pointless. It's working elsewhere.

How to cut the risk of buying a flood-prone home | CBC News Someone who owns a home knows its weaknesses when it rains. But those shopping for a place to live largely don't have that information and may unwittingly move into flood-prone areas.

buying twitter for 44 billion is a bad deal, but buying the US government for 44 billion is actually an amazing deal

The thing that radicalized people in the last 4 years more than anything else was the disruption of their consumer habits by the pandemic and what Trump’s cabinet appointments really call to mind for me is how many people are going to be sent over the edge by no longer having access to their treats
