I'm so glad I'm writing the solutions in both #nim and Python because I tend to find ways to improve the Python solution with the Nim one and vice versa. Today was one of those days. The biggest thing I learned though is that solving these damned puzzles exhausted will never lead to good things quality-wise.

Maybe I'm in my own little info bubble but I find it hard to believe that 60% of Canadians would support a new pipeline from Alberta to the west coast. I was disappointed with Carney's negotiation/capitulation to Smith, and I think longterm it's a misstep by the Liberals. Indigenous People will fight it tooth and nail, and we should support them in that effort. B.C. doesn't want a new terminal on their coast. Demand for oil continues to drop and there's a real risk the pipeline is severely underused upon completion. Most of the money made from oil moving through this pipe will leave Canada. Canada's reputation is polluted with this announcement while the majority of countries continue to develop alternative energy solutions. I can understand the support from Alberta as the province doesn't appear to have a strategy for transitioning from an oil dependent economy. But who are the other Canadians that Angus Reid surveyed?

Johannesburg is showing African cities how climate action gets done.
The city is racing toward net-zero by 2050 with bold moves: diverting 100% of garden waste from landfills by 2040, building micro-grids in informal settlements, and creating jobs while cutting emissions.
Their approach is becoming a model for scalable climate solutions across the continent.

Europe just opened major funding for industrial decarbonization—clean hydrogen, net zero manufacturing, carbon capture.
Carbon removal is scaling too: 268,000 tonnes contracted in November across biochar, direct air capture, and biomass. Real projects, real revenue.
