Space may feel separate from the environmental systems that sustain life on Earth.
But increasingly, the way we build, launch and dispose of satellites is starting to change that.
Over the past few years, the number of satellite launches has skyrocketed.
There are now nearly 15,000 active satellites in orbit around the Earth,
most of them part of “mega-constellations” in which each satellite has a service life of only a few years.
New satellites must be quickly la…

A new space race could turn our atmosphere into a ‘crematorium for satellites’
Planned ‘megaconstellations’ of satellites could cause unforeseen harm to the ozone layer and climate systems. Global regulation is needed before it’s too late.

#coastStarlight views

Shrub- and tree-lined islands in a murky green-brown lake. Behind them, a thin strip of land with palm trees, then blue ocean water.
Rows of some kind of cabbage-ish crop in a valley. They’re blurry from the speed of the train. The valley backs up to faded rugged mountain ranges, the first mostly bare, the one behind it with scrub.
View from above of a dark blue Amtrak train stopped on tracks built below grade of the round hill beyond, which climbs from trees to houses to a peak of mostly grass.
A set of rolling hills partly covered with shrubs, in other areas just grass. In the middle ground lowlying trees and in the foreground straw-yellow grass and dull green forbs.

Seabird nests built with plastic waste off the coast of Germany: Photo of the week
The northern gannet, a seabird that lives across the northern Atlantic Ocean, typically builds its nests from seaweed and other aquatic plants. But more recently, its nests have started to include plastic material fished from the ocean. Martin Brogger, a researcher at Argentina’s Institute of Marine Organisms Biology (IBIOMAR), photographed several gannet nests containing plastic […]

Mehr 🚗 💨fahren, weniger denken 🤡
Wir fahren jetzt hunderte Kilometer, um zu zeigen, dass Sprit zu teuer ist.
Mehr Realsatire …

Das KI generierte Bild ist eine minimalistische, überwiegend schwarz-weiße Illustration mit wenigen Farbakzenten. Oben steht in großen, schwarzen Buchstaben: „GEGEN HOHE SPRITPREISE“. Darunter sieht man eine Reihe von fünf Autos, die hintereinander auf einer geschwungenen Straße fahren – wie ein Konvoi. Die Autos sind einfach gezeichnet, ohne Details, alle in hellem Grau. Links im Bild ist übergroß eine gelbe Zapfpistole (wie an einer Tankstelle) dargestellt. Aus ihr kommt eine dunkle Leitung…

Why are we having fewer children?
(Interview with Berkay Ozcan, Professor at LSE)
- Couple formation happens at later age
- Women are choosing "careers" and not just "jobs"
- More people choose not to have kids at all
What else is going on? Short anser: we don't know yet
Even in countries providing a lot of support to parents, fertility rate has still declined
Immigration is no silver bullet. It's part of the solution, not th…

Berkay Ozcan: “Immigration is not a silver bullet for falling birth rates”
Berkay Ozcan discusses falling birth rates, whether immigration might provide the answer and what a smaller global population would mean for the environment.

Ist das ernst gemeint oder kann das weg?
Die faulen Eier der #AfD #osnabruck wollen eine geheime Häschenjagd in der Innenstadt machen.
Ortsangabe unscharf, Zeitangabe fehlt, "geheime Häschen-Jagd" mit Fragezeichen.

Screenshot aus dem Telegramm Kanal der AfD Kreisverband Stadt Osnabrück Das Bild ist ein blaues Plakat für eine Oster-Aktion. Oben steht groß „OSTERHASEN-AKTION!“. Darunter Texte wie „GEHEIME HÄSCHEN-JAGD!?“ und „Finde sie am Osterwochenende!“. Im Vordergrund sitzt ein lächelnder, stylisierter Osterhase mit Sonnenbrille, der sich mit einer Pfote an die Stirn tippt und mit der anderen eine Schale voller bunter Eier hält. Im Hintergrund ist eine nächtliche Stadtlandschaft mit Sternenhimmel, Mon…
