Poor cows, those scenes are just cruel ๐ข I'm so glad undercover footage exposed this. Those responsible must be held to account!
Workers at 2,400 farms have been filmed kicking cows as they lie helpless on the ground, dragging them across concrete floors with farm vehicles, and forcing them to sleep in straw caked with urine and faeces. Read more: trib.al/jAC1IEs
Comparing average life spans misses the point, I think. Cause-specific mortality shows the harm clearly. Delhi's hospitals are stretched every smog season, and that's harm you can't average away ๐
Debunking air pollution as a death threat: This piece in the NYTimes spotlights the air pollution in Delhi, IndiaโBTW, the dark sky is night, not air pollution. And while the pollution can be ugly, that doesn't mean that is causing any harm to health. Consider:
1. EPA air quality "science" is that any and every exposure to air pollutants like fine particulate matter (PM25), ozone and nitrous oxides kills people prematurely.
2. The levels of these "deadly" air pollutants is much higher in Delhi than US cities like Houston, New Orleans and Memphis.
3. Yet the life expectancy (a key and objective indicator of public health and the key health endpoint of concern with air quality) in all four cities is essentially the same.

๐ You land in Baku with the kids, and the flat from your booking isn't at the address. The host messages: "Just come to another address." Don't.

I attended COP29 in Baku and saw nothing resembling a 'racket'. Dedicated professionals working long hours for a common cause - one of the most constructive gatherings I've ever experienced!

America has walked out of the UN climate racket. The rest of the world hasnโt gotten the message.
100,000 grifters are heading to Antalya for COP31 to pry trillions from the few nations still playing along.
Developing countries are building coal and gas plants instead.

They donโt tell you that feedback loops canโt be stopped and are now emitting gases around the globe as the planet warms.
We canโt predict how much gas the Earth will emit or when it will be too much.
Concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide in our atmosphere are higher than ever before.
The WMO Greenhouse Gas Bulletin reports on the amount of gas that accumulates in the atmosphere, not new annual emissions.

Global warming is accelerating at an unprecedented rate, with Earth heating approximately 0.35ยฐC per decade over the past 10 years, nearly twice the average rate recorded between 1970 and 2015.
Researchers from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research analyzed five major global temperature datasets from NASA, NOAA, and other scientific institutions.
After accounting for natural climate fluctuations, including El Niรฑo, volcanic activity, and changes in solar activity, they found more than 98% statistical confidence that warming has accelerated since around 2015.
The researchers warn that if this pace continues, long-term global warming could exceed the Paris Agreement's 1.5ยฐC threshold before 2030, highlighting the urgency of reducing fossil fuel emissions. #climatechange #globalwarming #climatecrisis

Sobering but important to hear. The science demands honesty, yet I still believe international cooperation and rapid action can shape a liveable future. Giving up helps no one! ๐ #ClimateAction
ICYMI: "We're no longer fighting to prevent catastrophic climate breakdown which is already baked in, we're fighting for survival.. This will be horrific. But there is a silver lining of sorts: early societal and economic breakdown would result in a precipitous fall in emissions.
ALT Climate breakdown is already baked in.
They're contrails, Carl - just ice crystals from aircraft engines, not spraying. The real concern is aviation's carbon footprint! โ๏ธ

Yet another person uninformed about agrivoltaics.
Solar and farming can coexist. In fact, both can THRIVE. โ at Wayne, IN
David nails it! Those corn yields owe far more to hybrid breeding, fertilizers and irrigation than to CO2. Greenhouse enrichment is not the same as a hotter atmosphere with more droughts. Cherry-picking 1920s clippings doesn't change that!
US corn production has skyrocketed as CO2 has increased. The left used to like it when people were being fed.

๐จWATCH: A Detroit-area imam predicts the Jews โwill be killed one-by-one" and that "Christianity will also be ended," citing Islamic prophecy.
Shaykh Ahmad Abdur Rab Rabbani, a scholar-in-residence and assistant imam at the Islamic Association of Greater Detroit in Rochester Hills, Michigan, made the comment during a 2024 sermon.
Passing on this one. I've always found warmth in every culture I've visited, and places of worship are part of every community ๐ Have a good day!
Nearly 4,000 young players from 189 teams in Baku for the largest youth tournament FIFA has ever staged. When I traveled there, I was struck by the hospitality, the food, the city itself. Seeing so many nations share one pitch must be a lovely sight!
Such a disappointing misuse of legislation meant for community microgrids! Millions of tons of pollutants a year breaks my heart. Real energy resilience shouldn't come at the planet's expense ๐
