Any government that isn't right now accelerating plans to transition to 100% clean, renewable energy is either:
a. Incompetent
b. In the pockets of people who'd rather they didn't
c. a & b
On Thursday Israel's occupation forces murdered 9 year old Ritaj Rihan, they shot her in the head while she was learning subtraction in a tent classroom in Gaza. On Friday they shot and killed a 10-year-old child, Abdallah Dawas. He was shot by a quadcopter drone. 🧵 1
Seeing as Donald Trump has started this fuel crisis with his pointless war on Iran, I'm sure the current fuel protesters in Ireland will also be out to block roads and golf courses if Trump arrives here in September for the Irish open in Doonbeg? 🤔 #speirgorm #fuelprotests
The self-appointed "leaders" of the Fuel Protests are truly scum of the Earth.
Why our media choose to interview the likes of Duffy here re the protests is beyond me. Do they really think he cares one iota about anyone but his own self?
Isn't commandment #1 : Thou shalt not worship false gods? 😂
Uruguay generates nearly 43% of its electricity from wind and solar. In 2010, the share was less than 1%.
Most of the rest if hydro.
Today, Uruguay produces nearly 99% of its electricity from renewable sources.

Clean, safe, cheap, renewable energy that you don't have to fight deadly wars or destroy the environment to get.
Good for wildlife, too, when done properly.

Ebike passes 4000 km on its odometer.
As #Ireland enters a fuel war, with protesters blocking roads and diesel prices at record highs, I can't get my head around why more people (who can) haven't switched to cycling. I recently passed 4000km on my ebike. No diesel, no traffic, no tax, no insurance, no emissions, no stress, no brainer! 😎
Scotland temporarily ran entirely on wind power as turbines generated over 200 percent of national electricity demand.

🚨 Take action. Apartheid Israel passed a new law to mandate the death penalty for Palestinian prisoners.
Email the Irish government today to demand concrete action, and not just more endless words of condemnation. ➡️ www.ipsc.ie/action-item/...

Love it 👌🏻
Never a better time to avail of the bike to work scheme. There are brilliant independent bike shops all over the country who know their stuff.

That's neat. Filled up my $1000 NZD ($571 USD) electric car for $0.02 NZD ($0.01 USD). Did it with solar power even though it's a cloudy day. It's so cheap it honestly feels illegal. No wonder oil companies hate these things.
NASA's Blue Marble picture of Earth, from 1972
It's only worth going back to the Moon if it makes us look properly again at Earth, and appreciate how beautiful, precious and fragile what we have here is. The most famous images from Apollo aren't about the Moon - they're pictures of Earth. We need to stop taking our home for granted.

China donates 5,000 solar energy systems to Cuba, government prioritizing hospitals!
Beyond the hospital network, which includes more than 280 hospitals and 430 clinics, the project will also reach some 2,000 homes in isolated rural areas.
The national debt just hit a record $39 trillion.
Rich Americans used to finance the government by paying taxes.
Now, they finance the government by lending it money and collecting interest payments — profiting as the rest of us pay them back.
It's a big switcheroo you need to understand.
Mandami gets it 👌🏻☘️
"The results are astonishingly clear. On rewilded land, biodiversity surged across the board, with the number of bird species up 261%. The variety of bumblebee and butterfly species more than doubled, their abundance increased over 10x."
The cure for nature loss exists.

She would be turning in her grave. Trump is everything she was against 😡
‘And still they teach you in your school,
About those glorious days of rule
And how it's your destiny to be
Superior to me,
But if you've any kind of mind,
You'll see that all human kind,
Are the children of this earth,
And your hate for them will chew you up and spit you out’
- Damo
Looks like an amazing opportunity. Are you looking for a school to connect?

There’s a piece of art in this. Maybe Bertha should make the mini mná poster
The Dodder film is excellent. I’m guessing this is similar idea?
Thanks for sharing this Brian. Fascinating look back and realising the same problems continue. Mans entitlement that every piece of land should serve us and not nature.
In Ireland there’s an obsession in with machinery. If you’re going to spend thousands on a hedge flail you’re gona want to make use of it. Hedge cutting seems to be more a pastime than a necessity
