Don't know what to make of it. On one hand the 'yellow peril' attacking our upstanding wimen, while laughing manically. On the other biting themselves, and any Chinese exports of green technology, in the ass. All of it from undocumented 'sources', in USA, hellbent on China as their main problem and enemy.

Sounds incredibly stupid to me, but who said we were sane?

How the AP thinks we will solve it

"For 20-year-old Mayank Yadav, riding a crowded bus in the summer months in this western Indian city can be like sitting in an oven. That makes it a treat when he steps off and into a bus stop outfitted with sprinklers that bathe overheated commuters in a cooling mist."

You know where the really fun part of this game comes in, don't you?

That should be when we and this Earth system together starts to evict us. When carbon sinks disappear and carbon sources multiply. You can always try to solve that with more AC's or as per the AP's recipe, 'a cooling mist'

But you know what, it will just make it worse.

As a species we're becoming too dumb to survive.

" The co-legislators agreed on a common version of the Soil Monitoring Directive in the early hours of Wednesday 9 April, following a final trilogue meeting. The text, which will be subject to a vote in Parliament and in Council, sets the scene for the monitoring of soil health across the EU but stops far short of concrete commitments to improve European soils.

This follows from the disappointingly weak negotiating mandates adopted by the Parliament and Council last year. The trilogue compromise is yet to be published, but announcements made in the wake of the agreement indicated that EU-wide harmonisation will be kept to a minimum, with Member States largely free to define what counts as "healthy" soil. As expected, the text sets no binding targets for soil improvement. "

Get out of it Sweden

[yor_on]

And forget about kissing USA in the ***, same as with Russia. And China. Try to get back to what we had instead.

[yor_on]

We don't need more ideologically induced broilers running around EU, getting f*ed over, with us getting f*ed over by them. There is no peoples movement here in Sweden, dead since Palme, and EU will turn ugly.

[yor_on]

Just as USA, and just as Russia, and just as China

[yor_on]

We're on a tide of wars, and migrations, starvation's and greed. And we know the drivers, but we don't plan to do sh* about them.

[yor_on]

So Sweden will get used, as will our other Nordic countries. Some willingly, some not. I would prefer us to be in the last category.

[yor_on]

Doing it we will need a credible deterrence


Try to guess what is 'credible' those days.

[yor_on]

It's being practical, nothing more. It's not me promising that this will solve global warming.

Just those neighbors

[yor_on]

Sad, isn't it? But if we're going to go down, let's do it with our backs straight. Instead of being useful idiots.

[yor_on]

We've been all too naive here in Sweden, fueled by no wars, good living standards, and good wishes. The problem is that we're kind of unique, at least was kind of unique. And thought that everyone else was too.
