China’s CO2 emissions have now been flat or falling for 18 months.
The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) saw CO2 emissions from transport fuel drop by 5% year-on-year, while there were also declines from cement and steel production.
While emissions from the power sector were flat year-on-year, a big rise in the chemical industry’s CO2 output offset reductions elsewhere.

If anyone needs me, I'll be in my box. :neocat_box:

Video of Uni the munchkin tuxedo cat approaching then laying in a rectangular (cat-sized) box, then falling asleep with just the head poking out. One cute part about this kitty is that the black & white fur perfectly outlines the iconic mouth curve of a cat :3

Ursula von der Leyen and the EU Commission are fueling the AI hype, claiming AI could reach human-level reasoning next year.

Content warning: photograph in linked article shows blood on a steering wheel

The first paragraphs of this article are big news (I think?? IANAL): the FBI tried to shut MN out of the investigation of ICE’s murder of Renee Good, which almost certainly is the start of a cover-up. Minnesota initially threw up its hands and said “well that sucks.”
Today we learn that Minnesota and Hennepin County are still gathering evidence themselves, apparently independently of the FBI. My hope is that this is in pursuit of state charges, in defiance of the Trump-controlled FBI.

Walter's contribution to the air quality Video shows a tuxedo cat laying in a sunbeam when they start scratching their chin with their back leg. Visible fur and cat dandruff can be seen flying out a result. The human filming proclaims "Oh-Kay!" and the caption by the kitty reads "My work here is done" when they stop.
