Thoughts on the market’s first manufactured trillionaire.
“The EU already has digital partnerships with Japan, South Korea, Singapore and Canada. It is accelerating its digital diplomacy by adding a new one with Brazil. … The next step is to turn the partnerships into a network of countries — other than the U.S. and China — that team up on tech topics.”
"A Canadian East-West-North-South renewable electricity grid is possible. We must start by rejecting the limits of our current mind-sets." Elizabeth May’s latest Hill Times op-ed is a call to stop clinging to the past and start building the renewable future we need.
The bloc wants to deepen tech ties with countries such as Brazil and South Korea.

The US government is arresting scientists on pretextual grounds to consolidate their grip on authoritarian power. This should scare the hell out of every single one of us.

Great op-ed by @foodwatch-int.bsky.social's Suzy Sumner.
For too long, meat products like sausages, burgers, etc. have benefited from a misleading "naturalness" halo they simply don't deserve.
foodwatch's new report sets the record straight.

News organisations who breathlessly cover the ‘biggest IPO ever’ without adding perspectives on who Musk is, what he did to the world’s most vulnerable people by destroying USAID, or to democracy, have no compass, no ethics. This is not just another big IPO. This funds more damage to humanity.

Loved this Marc Gunther review of WE ARE EATING THE EARTH. He said it’s a “terrific book” so I guess I was inclined to love it. Also “science-based, thoroughly researched, lively,” “a book every environmentalist should read” and other nice words. marcgunther.substack.com/p/a-book-eve...
