"Ever more people are annoyed by the climate being so pushy these days, with all its heatwaves, wildfires, and floods. KLM agrees: Freedom of expression is valuable, but if we can't do our work because people get hesitant to book flights to Italy, we have to ask whether we can still tolerate this." /s

Klimaat enorm aan het drammen met talloze overstromingen en hitterecords
Steeds meer mensen ergeren zich aan het gedram van het klimaat. Met hittegolven in Europa, bosbranden in Canada, Zwitserland en de Canarische Eilanden, en aardverschuivingen in Colombia voelt het voor veel mensen alsof het klimaat echt over de schreef gaat.

The digital graveyard: Is Bangladesh becoming China’s e-waste back door?
As the world turns its attention to China’s increasingly stringent waste import ban, a dangerous stream of electronic waste is entering Bangladesh. Despite the enactment of the Hazardous Waste (e-waste) Management Rules 2021, weak regulatory systems and illegal trade routes are making the country a major destination for global “e-waste.” Electronic waste (e-waste), which includes […]

Today, I'm remembering that time on January 6, 2021 when Lindsey Graham indicated he might actually have a backbone by speaking out against the illegal coup attempt and said that Biden legitimately won the election.
It didn't stick though. He returned to his cowardly support of Turnip leading up to the 2024 election.

Illegal e-waste trade turns Bangladesh into net importer
In Bangladesh, poor oversight of unlawful cross-border trade in hazardous electronic waste continues, turning the country into a net importer of electronic waste. The country has rules to control e-waste. It is also a party to the Basel Convention and has introduced its own laws, like the Hazardous Waste (E-waste) Management Rules (2021). However, enforcement […]

Everyone with a checkbook understands how to get what they want from Donald Trump
-- and that is to pay him.
When he owned a hotel in Washington, the place was constantly booked during his presidency.
As soon as he left office in 2021, the vacancy sign turned on.
Memberships in his tacky golf resorts increase, as well as the fees, while he’s president.
After he leaves office, they drop off.
Since re-entering office in January 2025, Trump has made huge bus…

"However, a US intelligence report in 2021 ... conducted under John Ratcliffe, Trump’s then-director of national intelligence and his present CIA director, found China attempted to collect information on US voters, public opinion and political parties going as far back as 2008. Typically, such data is publicly available and cannot be used to alter votes."
