In Davos, the rich talk about ‘global threats’. Here’s why they’re silent about the biggest of them all | Ingrid Robeyns

In #Uganda communities in Katooke and Kijumba, Hoima, are facing serious and life-altering health impacts linked to EACOP’s testing activities. What is happening here is not isolated. It reflects a wider pattern of harm, neglect, and impunity affecting people living along the pipeline route.

The #ClimateCrisis is not a distant threat. It is already shaping our world through extreme weather, infrastructure stress, economic instability, and ecosystem collapse. Heatwaves, droughts, floods, and storms are becoming more intense and frequent.

Powerful the documentary "Watch Famous Last Words: Dr. Jane Goodall", especially the last part, Jane dialog. Nice complement to the book "The Book of Hope".
Want to buy the book? Avoid Amazon. Support local bookshops in person when you can.

Re-reading "Stranger in a Strange Land" and just stumble upon this: Grokipedia (misuse of the word Grok), last vanity project of the richest man in the World. Disgusting. Nice article about it here:
Grokipedia Is the Antithesis of Everything That Makes Wikipedia Good, Useful, and Human
Grokipedia is not a 'Wikipedia competitor.' It is a fully robotic regurgitation machine designed to protect the ego of the world’s wealthiest man.

"It is important to be aware that some subsidies promote activities with negative environmental or social impacts.
Fossil fuel subsidies in particular contribute to excessive energy consumption and pollution, while diverting resources and investment from clean energy and pro-poor initiatives."

‘The European Union intends to increase the glyphosate allowed in water.

The current limit is 0.1 micrograms of #glyphosate per litre of water. The new revision aims to increase this maximum to 398.6 micrograms per litre of water, which would mean multiplying by 4,000 the current allowed limit.’
No podemos permitir que se sigan contaminando nuestros ríos, lagos y aguas subterráneas ni nuestras tierras, mucho menos tolerar que incrementen los límites permitidos de contaminación.

¡¡El beneficio de unos pocos nos pone en riesgo a la mayoría!!

La Unión Europea pretende multiplicar por 4.000 el glifosato permitido en aguas
Según Ecologistas en Acción, supondría permitir legalmente una grave contaminación de las aguas que pondría en mayor riesgo la biodiversidad y la salud.
