So, who exactly are the #farright #AfD MPs elected in #SachsenAnhalt? An ex-Stasi officer, an ex-porn star (who falsified his education & stole hotel bedding), #whitesupremacist neopagans on guns charges, & #neoNazis, all led by a former air freshener salesman. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...

Nice piece here packed with information about the tech-fossil-CCS nexus that has become more clear in the past year www.foodandwaterwatch.org/2026/09/25/d...

$Two Industries, Two Problems, One Big Carbon Capture Scam AI data centers are incredibly energy-hungry; by 2028, they may command as much electricity as 55 million households. Already, 40% of data center energy comes from dirty gas. The AI boom is already driving the construction of new gas-fired power plants and keeping old power plants on life support. This is creating a real credibility issue for the tech industry’s unenforceable climate and environmental pledges. The fossil fuel industry has a different problem. They need new customers to justify massive new pipelines, new power plants, and fracking. CCS is the bridge between these two destructive industries. It’s providing Big Tech a new fig leaf and the fossil fuel industry a massive new customer base.$
