In 1912 Popular Mechanics wrote:

The furnaces of the world are now burning 2 billion tons of coal a year. When this is burned.. it adds about 7 billion tons of CO2 to the atmosphere..

This tends to make the air a more effective blanket for the earth and raise its temperature.

Watch Bing chat go slowly unhinged - @acidflask@twitter.com and I were messing around with it and asked it questions about me.

Let me be very clear about this:

The environmentalists were NOT the reason power stalled in the 1980s.

There is absolutely no support for a theory, popular in some circles, that we could've been fossil free "if not for the Greens." 1/

I never had a source assaulted in front of me until today when an Israeli soldier who stopped my interview did this with a Palestinian peace activist Issa Amro in Hebron. I can't stop thinking how dehumanizing the occupation is on the young soldiers charged with enforcing it.

In the 1970s, archaeologists in Bulgaria unearthed a vast Copper Age necropolis from the 5th millennium BCE. Inside burial 43 they found the remains of a high status male with more gold than it was found in the entire rest of the world in that period: buff.ly/3NU5fhB

I've long used the Ireland/UK history as a metaphor explaining Ukraine/Russia recent history. (A longer history requires using India/UK as a metaphor - Ukraine has a far longer history than Russia.) Here is a good help for those who has to explain what is Ukraine to Russia...

…uhm yes that is THE argument FOR delivering leopards ?
