FUN FACT If we switched to all renewable energy, the number of ships crossing the ocean would fall almost in half, slashing global CO2 emissions. Because those ships are JUST carrying coal, oil and gas. ~ Bill McKibben SUPPORT ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SOURCES!

I have to admit that I didn’t know, and I even thought the Spanish player Cucurella’s look was quite original, when it comes to his hair, but I was unaware of this: If he let his hair grow , it’s so that his autistic son can easily recognize him when he watches him on TV. Truly, this Spanish team ❤️

Walking in our farm's rainforest with the melting heat of these days, I am filled with such inexpressible anger at what is being done to our once stable climate. The richest 1% are actively, knowingly, and uncaringly sabotaging the future for all of us, and for the rest of the planet's life.

A clip from a freight train stopped in a wildfire near Armstrong, Ontario. Thankfully, the crew escaped safely. Wildfire is nothing new but the burning of fossil fuels is making them larger, more frequent and severe.

Remember the Iranian School that Trump bombed? CNN just reported that Trump’s military commanders ignored warnings that their intel on targets in Iran were OUTDATED and then approved the strike that hit the school, killing close to 200 people, including well over 100 children.

I found these facts fun: the U.S. is 320 times the size of Belgium, which is a bit smaller than the state of Maryland, or about the same size as greater Los Angeles. Even outrageous cheating by the host nation couldn't stop Belgium thrashing the U.S. in the World Cup Quarter Finals...
