Satellite surveillance shows that the Silivri landfill is Turkey’s worst super-emitting waste site.
In fact, its average emission rate of 7.4 tonnes an hour makes it one of the worst identified anywhere in the world by a team of expert researchers at the University of California (UCLA).
The planet-warming impact of this single leak is equivalent to 1.5m gas-guzzling SUVs gunning their engines
and there are more super-emitting dumps across Turkey.
They stretch from İ…

Thanksgiving day today. We had the turkey dinner yesterday so I get to kick back and relax. Only hard thing I have planned is to get up and refill my coffee mug.
Later my wife and I will be going through the closets to do our twice annual purging of clothes. If we didn't wear it for a year we bag it for donation if still in good condition. Otherwise it is bagged for recycling.

Photo of a turkey vulture spreading its wings, perched on a handler’s glove, on a pedestal. Injured by a vehicle while munching on carrion on a road in Wyoming, its left wing was broken. Despite rehab efforts by the Rocky Mountain Raptor Program, the bird, named Persephone, is unable to fend for itself in the wild. She’s about 15 years old, and is an ambassador for the program in their fundraising outreach efforts.

Borders are the worst idea humanity has ever come up with. People fucking move all the time. That's *normal* and has been throughout human history. Borders don't just promote genocide, as in the case of Syria/Turkey or Ethiopia. They *are* genocide. There are and have been migratory people. That's just one of the (absolutely fucking legitimate) strategies of human survival. Borders destroy migratory cultures.
From the US and ICE, to AfD and all the rest of the European far right bullshit, to Turkey's incursions into Syria, to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, it's all the same shit over and over again because of these fucking imaginary lines that kill so many people.

RE: dair-community.social/@ZekuZel
There's a bit of context behind this that's worth being aware of, and I'll do my best to explain it second (or third) hand. Abiy Ahmed has been the prime minister of Ethiopia since 2019. He was quite popular initially, but has held on to power for quite a while and has been called out for authoritarian tendencies.
His party, the Prosperity Party, is a liberal party that has privatized parts of the economy and is trying to dismantle ethnic federalism. This type of "modernization" is obviously supported by neoliberal forces around the world, especially since he took over from the ethno nationalist ML TPLF.
The TPLF was also authoritarian, brutal, and anti-democratic, as one would expect from an ML organization. Part of Abiy's popularity came from opposition to the TPLF. But more recently, but his forces also carried out genocide in Tigray during that war in 2022 (after his Nobel Peace Prize).
Part of the opposition to his modernization is that ending ethnic federalism would weaken the power of older ethnic structures. This could be seen as similar in some ways to conflicts across Europe in from 1848 through to the early 1900's and in the Balkans after the fall of the Soviet Union.
The connection between ethnicity and nationality has never really stopped causing problems. Liberalism is usually connected to the domination of one ethnic group into a singular national identity. This flows from the French Revolution, through the Russian revolution, and into both the Ethnic ML exported by Communist Russia as part of their attempts to weaken European capitalism and (via both American Colonial Nationalism and the French Revolution) into the Neoliberalism promoted by the US and European powers as a counter.
Ethiopia is a multiethnic country. Unfortunately the logic of the state (liberal or communist) tends to destroy these ethnic identities through a combination of ethnic cleansing, appropriation, and (often forced) integration.
Some of the conflict here is coming out of the tension between a national identity and ethnic identity, especially in relation to Tigray and Amhara, as well as the continued pressure of economic liberalization, and centralization vs federalization.
The point is that it's actually quite a bit more complicated than it may be presented as, especially outside of the religion. European interests may align with Abiy, and present him as a "modernizing force." Addis is one of the centers of the African Union. Meanwhile, other countries have their own interests in stoking this conflict. China, Turkey, the UAE, and Iran all sell drones to the Federal government. Eretria has an interest in creating a buffer zone to keep Ethiopia from seizing a port city from them. Sudan is involved, and I don't have the local political depth to know why.
Various groups will try to point to one group or another as the "good guy/bad guy" but it's definitely not that simple. It's just kind of tragic for everyone. I hope Ethiopian people find peace and freedom.
My hope is that Ethiopia will develop something like Democratic Confederalism that resolves these conflicts and tensions without wiping out the unique identities of the peoples who make up Ethiopia.
