Opinion | Trump upending world order will cost America dearly The decline of American influence is a gift to Russia and China.

“The US spent 8 decades building an international system of rules, norms and values that has produced the longest period of great power peace and global prosperity in human history.” Fareed Zakaria on how upending the world order will only weaken America: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

🚨The European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas : “The free world needs a new leader”

The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.

That’s a fair assessment. Since the ‘Right’ has become nothing but bull shitting and gaslighting, left-leaning (to me) implies the kind of information that can be positively fact checked, and actively calls out the fuckery of the current administration

I’m not much of a podcast listener 🤷🏼‍♂️🙂

I had no idea there was a left leaning podcast that had any real traction… and this one is out ranking Joe Rogan! 😳

57 million vs. Rogan’s 50 million plays a month.

Glad to have you here! Now we have to get to work…

I bet it makes great compost however. I imagine this would be simple for them to flip this from ecological destruction to regenerative asset.

Black Earth — THE BITTER SOUTHERNER In North Carolina, a Black farmer purchased the plantation where his ancestors were enslaved— and is reclaiming his family’s story, his community’s health, and the soil beneath his feet.

@christina-cooke.bsky.social I loved your article in Bitter Southerner mag! It was a compelling story of Patrick Brown’s purchasing the plantation in NC that his ancestors were enslaved on. I loved that he is pioneering regenerative ag, industrial hemp production and more! I want to visit the farm!

A line graph depicting the average number of days it took to install a gigawatt of solar energy capacity worldwide from 2001 to 2023. The vertical axis represents the number of days on a logarithmic scale, spanning from 1 to 1000 days. The horizontal axis indicates the years from 2001 to 2023. In 2004, the average time was about 1 year, which is marked on the graph. A downward trend shows significant decreases in installation time over the years. By 2010, it took under 30 days, and by 2015, just over 7 days. The most notable point is in 2023, where it dropped to about 1 day on average for installation. The data source is attributed to IRENA (2024), with calculation by Our World in Data, and the chart is identified as CC BY, indicating it is licensed for sharing and adaptation with appropriate credit.

In 2004, it took the world a year to add a gigawatt of solar power — now it takes a day

Anyone ever catch this guy in a church… before he was pandering to, and manipulating, Christians?

Using regenerative agriculture to build healthy soil is a massively more cost effective means of sequestering carbon. Soil alone can store enough carbon to fix our climate crisis.

World’s richest man stops benevolent US critical care and hundreds of babies (per week?) needlessly get HIV.

I hate this timeline…

Considering that a significant percentage of farm land is used to grow corn for ethanol, this visualization really call the logic of that into question.

But I’m all for covering parking lots with solar before farm land.

There goes another billion in revenue for US companies…. Add this to British Columbia saying the same thing yesterday.

Trump’s trade wars are going to reduce homebuilding and raise prices, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) says in a letter they sent to Donald Trump:

“We respectfully ask that you consider the effects of tariffs…that you exempt critical construction materials from such actions.”

Costco to raise hourly pay for most US store workers to over $30 Retailer Costco Wholesale will increase pay for most of its hourly U.S. store workers to more than $30, according to a memo sent to employees this week.

Costco - the only company to publicly come out in support of Diversity initiatives despite pressure from the GOP and they just raised the pay for their workers. Stop shopping at Target.
