Plastic pollution talks fail as negotiators in Geneva reject draft treaties
Countries deadlocked on whether legally binding deal should include curbs on production and toxic chemicals
www.theguardian.com
If plastics were a nation we’d have launched a full-scale military attack against it by now. A very close ally of fossil fuels. Which nations can’t agree on a treaty? Exclude them and get the f*ck on with it. The pretence we need everyone onboard is nonsense.

‘Profound impacts’: record ocean heat is intensifying climate disasters, data shows
‘Profound impacts’: record ocean heat is intensifying climate disasters, data shows
Oceans absorb 90% of global heating, making them a stark indicator of the relentless march of the climate crisis
The world’s oceans absorbed colossal amounts of heat in 2025, setting yet another new record and fuelling more extreme weather, scientists have reported.
More than 90% of the heat trapped by humanity’s carbon pollution is taken up by the oceans. This makes ocean heat one of the starkest indicators of the relentless march of the climate crisis, which will only end when emissions fall to zero. Almost every year since the start of the millennium has set a new ocean heat record. Continue reading...

Truth: "We need a defenceless nation to mine the hell out of for common rare earth elements. We don't want these incredibly toxic mining operations in our backyard. So we need Greenland." It's about securing supply chains for superfluous production to support capitalism at any cost. Colonialism.

The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.
And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.
