So switching to LED lighting, installing solar panels, buying Electric cars etc. has been a totally futile endeavour! We are really doomed!

Not that anyone needs a reminder but this man has the nuclear codes. Far too many people will just shrug this off or find some way to justify it. But Trump is unwell, incoherent, and a danger to us all.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

A MORATORIUM ON DATA CENTERS SHOULDN’T EVEN BE IN QUESTION AT THIS POINT And we definitely need more reporting on this issue: HEAT Data centers devour electricity and water, dump heat into communities, and Big Tech is building them faster than lawmakers are dealing with the consequences.

Preznit Fuckwit's idiotic plan to build some ginormous drone-and-sniper arch in the middle of DC is just his latest stupid idea in a lifetime of stupid ideas. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I mock the insanity of it all. link is here: bit.ly/4dp8SuA
Little Donny Shit-For-Brains is all about the having stupidest fucking ideas you’ve ever heard.

‘everyone should inject bleach and guzzle horse paste.’

‘you know what would be so easy to win? a war on Iran, that’s what.’

‘I’m going to tease my six remaining strands of hair into some fucked-up rat’s nest of cotton candy bullshit.’

‘oh, I know: let’s build some ginormous fugly arch that towers over everything else, and let’s stick it right in the middle of Washington, DC — oh, and let’s militarize it. let’s use it as an ammunition dump. and let’s include multiple sniper nests. yeah. and you know what? let’s put a drone port on top of it. yeah, fucking drones, bro. oh, man — that’s going to be so cool.’

The media jumped on a racist MAGA-style bandwagon championed by the ugliest souls in British society. The myth is that the majority of those journalists and publishers were somehow "instrumentalised" by the far-right. No. They ARE the far-right, and they've been serving its agenda for years.

The Democratic Party’s mega-donor class is horrified by the rising tide of progressive populism. Too bad. It's time they recognize the real choice is between democracy and tyranny, between an economy that works for all or one that works for a small sliver at the top.

The toxic air our children were breathing was stunting their lungs. For too many young Londoners, that was the reality before the ULEZ. New independent findings show their lung health has improved significantly in Central London. That’s the difference cleaner air can make.

£36 billion a year. That astronomical sum is how much the climate crisis could cost London by the 2050s if we fail to act. In June I set out London’s first city-wide plan for protecting Londoners and preparing for a hotter future. Our city is relying on us to act now.

For years, London's children’s lungs lagged behind. Now they’re catching up. A major new study shows the ULEZ cut exposure to toxic NO₂ and reduced impaired lung function from 14% to 9%.

I simply do not understand the mentality of people who prefer oil and gas and "drill baby drill" to the cost of the Earth and our pockets... to those of us who want clean, cheap, renewable energy. How brainwashed by big oil and its (often) paid advocates do you have to be? How gullible.
