Tree planting is one of our strongest weapons. Restoring forests to pre-industrial levels could cool global temperatures by 0.34°C,about 1/4 of the warming we've already seen. One hectare of mature forest sequesters 20 tons of CO₂ yearly. Trees cool cities, clean air, and protect biodiversity.

I miss when technology was exciting. Google was cool, search worked, information felt wildly, wonderfully accessible. Amazon was a wonderland of book discovery. The Kindle is a marvel! And now it's all the rancid sadism of dull men.

Canada is burning.Norway is breaking heat records.This isn’t a natural disaster;it’s a policy failure. While boreal forests turn to ash, policymakers continue to hand out billions in fossil fuel subsidies. We aren't just witnessing a tipping point,we are witnessing state-sanctioned climate collapse.

The reason why ICE agents continue to shoot people is because nothing ever happens to them when they do. They essentially have been granted full immunity for whatever they choose to do to people by a lawless regime of thugs.

Jarell Quansah has his red card ban extended to two matches. FIFA will consider an appeal, if the England defender can prove he’s either American or Argentinian or a brown envelope stuffed with cash
