Why such a heavy downvote?

[–] solo@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Could be the case.

For a year the Biden administration has given carte blanche to a genocidal zionist who is the head of an apartheid regime that the US has been supporting for so many decades, regardless of who was in power. What did they expect from Netanyahu? Loyalty to the party?

Thanks for sharing this cause what he says and what AP reports are quite different. And I'm saying that not being a fan of him, on the contrary.

 
  • Mycorrhizal fungi are responsible for holding up to 36 per cent of yearly global fossil fuel emissions below ground - more than China emits each year

  • The fungi make up a vast underground network all over the planet underneath grasslands and forests, as well as roads, gardens, and houses on every continent on Earth

  • It is not only crucial to storing carbon and keeping the planet cooler, but are also essential to global biodiversity

  • Researchers are now calling for fungi to be considered more heavily in conservation and biodiversity policies, and are investigating whether we can increase how much carbon the soil underneath us can hold

My experience with this title/article was similar but ended with me wondering what was I expecting from a title like that, and kinda laughing about it. That's mainly why I thought of sharing it, I mean sure the recipes seem great too.

Btw sorry you got disappointed tho, I hope not too much.

 

As autumn settles in throughout much of the Northern Hemisphere, it’s time for rich seasonal vegetables, fruits, and cozy meals.

 
  • The EU parliament and council is considering a 12-month delay to its deforestation-free products regulation, which will require exporters to prove that beef, soy, rubber and other harmful commodities aren’t sourced to deforested land.

  • The law was supposed to go into effect January 1, 2025, but faced mounting pressure from exporting countries and the industrial agricultural sector.

 

Researchers have known for several decades that thunderstorms can act as miniature particle accelerators that produce antimatter, gamma rays and other nuclear phenomena. But they did not know how common the phenomenon was. In observations taken by a retrofitted U2 spy plane, they've discovered essentially all large thunderstorms produce gamma rays in many dynamic, unexpected and unknown ways.

 

For the Maasai, Nyekweri forest has such a high ecological and socio-cultural value. But new conservancies aren’t working as best they could.

"This should be the final nail in the coffin for the false narrative that LNG was somehow a climate solution”

 

Latest Israeli bombing flattens buildings in Beirut’s southern suburbs; 18 killed in strike on West Bank refugee camp.

 

Israeli forces killed 28 health care workers in Lebanon in just the past day, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a press briefing on Thursday. So far, Israeli forces have killed 1,600 people, including over 100 children, in the past two weeks in Lebanon.

Israel has openly adopted attacks on health care as a military practice in its genocide in Gaza — one of many tactics that seemingly violate international wartime law that Israel is now using on Lebanon.

Israel is carrying out intense shelling in Lebanon, killing nearly the same number of people in Lebanon in just 10 days as were killed in the 2006 Lebanon war,

Israel’s violence is also causing a major displacement crisis. (...) at least 1.2 million people across Lebanon, or over a fifth of the population, have been forcibly displaced amid Israel’s attacks.

I don't understand this logic. You claim that the US is supporting by all means a genocide because it's election year and out of fear of being called antisemites by the republicans? Therefore, after the elections this genocide will not be supported by the democrats anymore?

I'm sorry, this doesn't make any sense to me.

 

Palestinian security services say attack on Tulkarm refugee camp is deadliest on West Bank in 24 years

 

The International Seabed Authority has issued 29 15-years exploration contracts for developing resources from polymetallic nodule fields (17), seafloor massive sulphides (7), and cobalt-rich crusts (5). Seven contracts for polymetallic nodule fields have been extended for an additional 5 years.

I think that if the democrats win this election there is a decent chance the US could start slowly pulling support.

Why do you think that? Did I miss something perhaps? I haven't seen a hint from democrats during the past year up to now to support this claim. On the contrary, they actively send Israel tones of bombs and money to genocide Palestinians, and no matter what "red lines" the Biden administration puts on the matter, soon after they forget about them. And Harris (if I remember correctly) she said she will continue the same policy.

What about something like house insulation panels?

I suppose they should be good as acoustic panels for sound absorption as well [ex1, ex2]. Even if they are much smaller I am pretty sure they could be cut and used combined as sound insulation tiles, and them being of different width, length and depth could actually be an advantage.

We must face the hard truth in Gaza: Israel has lost its moral authority - The Hill - 07/18/24

I reviewed thousands of incident reports and tens of thousands of individual data points from several dozen credible organizations, as well as the Israeli military itself, as a part of a nonpartisan task force analyzing Israel’s campaign in Gaza.

Our report, submitted to the Biden administration and briefed to Congress, establishes compelling and credible evidence of Israeli violations of international humanitarian law and U.S. military best practices, utilizing U.S.-provided munitions. It shows how the Israeli military has demonstrated a “systematic disregard for fundamental principles of international law, including recurrent attacks launched despite foreseeably disproportionate harm to civilians.”

It's the Zionists who are killing children, and what you say is totally antisemitic.

[–] solo@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (11 children)

It seems to me you are missing the point.

This is a political suicide. I cannot say that I am for this approach but what I see is a form of protest (and maybe what I think about it is another topic). What is striking to me is that this US-backed Genocide is taking place for almost a year, and due to despair americans are even killing themselves as a form of protest.

And of course there are other forms of protesting. People try to influence politicians in so many ways so the US stops providing guns and arguments attempting to justify it.

Looks like the article was removed. I suppose this is a great reminder why it's important to archive a link before posting it, and share the archived link as well.

I think I understand what you mean, but I see things quite differently.

The problem on this planet is this specific form of capitalism we live under.

Humans are the solution to this systemic problem.
