Do you think that the oligarchs know this, that time is short, and that is why they want to go to Mars or why, like Zuckerberg, they build $127 Million bunkers?

Everyone knows data centers use a ton of water.

What hardly anyone knows: they can poison the water that remains.

And in eastern Oregon, Amazon is doing exactly that.
AI’s water problem is worse than we thought
A new investigation reveals how Amazon is amplifying Oregon’s nitrate pollution crisis.

The glacier that seemed eternal may never touch the opposite shore again.

Tourists may see more dramatic calving, but they’ll be watching a hollow spectacle: the slow disappearance of an icon, swallowed by the mountains behind.

Millions want to help, yet most don’t know how or where to start.

So here’s what I’ve been doing instead: collecting quiet hacks and small revolutions. Acts that don’t make headlines but create ripples that eventually move the needle.

It’s our turn.

The Antarctic logbook from recent years reads more like an obituary than a journal.

This ice has not come back. It may never do.

And change is easy to understand when it’s linear.

But collapse doesn’t happen in straight lines.
It happens like an explosion.
