I supported #JulianAssange from the first. I supported him against fake allegations when others were calling him foul and demanding his extradition to Sweden. I supported him against the British state prosecutor Keir Starmer, against Biden, against Trump. My then 7 year old son drew a childish plan whereby Julian could escape across the rooftops of Knightsbridge. My family's joy that he is now free and with his family overfloweth. By Wednesday on @MoatsTV I will have plenty to say about what happened to him... My salute to all his faithful supporters around the world. The victory is yours.

Today’s Democratic Party has led us to the brink of nuclear war. The party is led by cowardly warmongers who are firmly in the grips of the military industrial complex, and don’t know or care about the cost of war, or who pays the price.

110 years ago today, a New Zealand newspaper warned that burning coal could eventually change the climate.
This was based on the work of Svante Arrhenius, who 16 years earlier had measured the warming effect of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Don't say we didn't warn you.

A new study by Stanford shows it'll take $62 trillion for the whole world to go renewable, which will earn $11 trillion annually to pay for itself within 6 years! That's also adding 28 million more jobs than the current fossil fuel industry has!

Green towers ain't so green afterall
'Because of all the green added, the building's weight increases to support the trees, balconies are enlarged and strengthened. This causes more material input, energy input and production waste for those materials.'

This academic study suggest that there is no merit to the claim that building denser and taller is more sustainable.
By building dense, low-rise urban environments, the same populations can be accommodated for drastically lower lifecycle carbon costs.

Thought carefully about sharing this. It’s pretty blunt but it’s blunt, honest communication we need. Please watch & retweet. We, all of us, not anyone else, will decide through our actions what happens next. Please do this. Please save lives #coronavirus
Any educators out there wondering how to redesign a course for online delivery might find this academic investigation a useful starting point arrow.tudublin.ie/cgi/viewco…
