Video from the Nepal army shows Sanjay Shah and Kabir Maharjan being rescued from the Trishuli 3A Hydropower Project. The two have been pulled out alive from a hydropower tunnel in Nepal nine days after deadly flash floods left them trapped.

“the UK is no longer capable of managing a nuclear submarine program”: former British director of nuclear policy, Rear Admiral Philip Mathias Yet the UK (BAE Systems) is Australia's partner in producing the AUKUS subs 👇 by ret'd RAN sub cmdr Peter Briggs pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/09...

AUKUS is a $368 billion gamble Australia does not need to take

Dr Michael Keating and Jon Stanford exploding the myth that the US will be rotating through HMAS Stirling. It will be a US base with a US Commodore. Sick of Marles/ALP trying to hide the facts from the public. Stanford says it’s a US base and we have no say in what they do.🤬

More than 70% of Texas data centers refused to answer a state-mandated inquiry about their water use. These Corrupt Bigshots want our water while keeping Texans in the dark about how much they're taking.

A Dallas Morning News graphic showing large electrical transmission lines and towers beside a data center facility and a nearby home. Text reads: “More than half of Texas data centers broke law by not responding to water use inquiry.”

Hottest winter on record. Snow season closing weeks early. Records broken in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra. And spring's shaping up even hotter. This is what climate pollution from coal, oil and gas looks like for our alpine regions, but it's not too late to change course.

The Earth will cross the 1.5 degrees warming limit that everyone agreed to in the Paris Accord. Thank all those politicians that delayed and weakened the vital climate policies, and still do. It’s not them who’ll pay the price, but you and your children. apnews.com/article/clim...

Global warming will exceed limit, UN says in a report that maps path to get back below danger zone

In a strategic retreat, the United Nations concedes that Earth has lost its chance to prevent some of the worst impacts of global warming.

Tampa was just a jolly jape, according to Alexander Downer who grinned stupidly during the ABC documentary like a schoolboy who had just found a stash of raunchy porn mags. Blind to the human misery and ignoring international law, it was merely a fun game of one-upmanship for the Libs.

Australia Institute research shows the Safeguard Mechanism has failed to deliver promised reductions in gross emissions. Its biggest failure is its overwhelming reliance on carbon offsets, which have enabled fossil fuel producers to INCREASE their actual pollution. #auspol
