Wann immer es um Veränderungen geht, besteht ein Spektrum, in dem diese diskutierbar sind: Auf der einen Seite, sollten Veränderungen die gewünschten Verbesserungen mit sich bringen. Auf der anderen Seite, müssen sie in den bestehenden Strukturen beschlossen und umgesetzt werden können.
Das bringt Agenten dieser Veränderung in eine Zwickmühle: Machen sie einen zu radikalen Vorschlag, der tatsächliche Veränderung mit sich bringt, wird dieser schnell abgelehnt. Machen sie von Beginn an …

On Signal’s Meredith Whittaker in The Economist. Or: The origins of poor digital policy demands
Over the last years, I have taken part in numerous meetings about how to square the circle of formulating policy demands that both make a difference and have a vague prospect of being adopted by policy-makers. And I often get to observe how this kills any meaningful debate and narrows perspectives.

Is Enerkem's Waste Gasification technology a Failure or a promising Climate Solution?🗑️💨♨️🏭
Gasification of waste and biomass🪵 could be an enormously helpful tool to make valuable circular or renewable chemicals. Yet, the list of failed gasification projects is long.
Enerkem looked like it had finally unlocked successful waste gasification, with the world's only waste-to-Methanol/Ethanol plant operating in Edmonton, Canada🇨🇦, since 2014. But in early 2024, it was shut down.…

Repsol wants to build a waste gasification plant to make circular and biogenic Methanol in Spain. The Ecoplanta project will use a technology that previously failed to deliver on its promises in Canada.

"I have made [PM Mark Carney] very popular”
"We're going to be talking about Gaza”
"We could have peace in the Middle East”
he jokes “The Merger of Canada and USA”
Carney: ‘that's not where I was going”
Carney looks bemused as The American Fascist talks about the ‘hell hole' that DC was.
he's talking about "zero" people coming through the south border.
... Carney doing his best to keep a straight face... the things that must be going through his mind as the Fascist rambles about Canada benefiting from Venezuelan boats being blown up.

"Creditors circle as cull looms
Jason Proctor
I'm Jason Proctor, a reporter with CBC Vancouver who looked into a series of lawsuits facing the owners of Universal Ostrich Farms Inc.
Last month, I spoke with three creditors who are watching today's ruling with great interest — and some skin in the game.
B.C. Supreme Court judges have ordered the farm's owners to repay debts worth more than $250,000 but, up until now, the creditors have been unable to collect. Normally in this kind of situation, a creditor would move to seize the business assets — but because in this case those assets are ostriches caught up in a legal battle, that's been challenging, to say the least.
All three creditors have tried to garnish the CFIA to intercept any money the agency might pay out as compensation for killing the birds (potentially up to $3,000 a bird, the CFIA says) but it remains to be seen how that will work. The creditors, however, told me they are anxious to recoup their losses.”
