Dorst? Op Spitsbergen kun je beter geen kraanwater meer drinken. Op Spitsbergen is de permafrost ontdooid door klimaatverandering, de temperatuur stijgt daar 5 tot 7 keer zo snel als gemiddeld op aarde. Gevolg: te veel zware metalen in het drinkwater ... www.trouw.nl/buitenland/d...

Beverly and Jeff Morris lived in peace and quiet on their beautiful farm before Meta broke ground on a data center complex next door. Now, they don't have clean drinking water and are dealing with constant noise pollution.

SpaceX got almost $6 BILLION in taxpayer-funded defense contracts last fiscal year. Meanwhile, SpaceX CEO, Elon Musk, has spent over $360 MILLION in our elections this cycle. This should be illegal — but it isn't. I'll be introducing a bill to close the loophole that allows it.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Just a thought. Republicans must hate rainbows, it reminds them of the LHBTQI-community. Just as they hate condensation from planes high in the sky, because they think these are chemtrails.

Voor de VVD waren extra wegen/asfalt en invoeren van 130 op de snelweg VEEL belangrijker dan het o zo noodzakelijke onderhoud. Of nou Rutte of Yesilgoz leider was maakte geen fluit uit. De vroemvroempartij zakt nu bijna door bruggen heen.

nos.nl/artikel/2633... In de jaren '70 bezochten wij de DDR bijna elke zomervakantie. We hadden er vrienden. Dit brood moeten wij dus ook hebben gegeten. Toen wij ons eigen brood een keer meenamen noemden onze vrienden dat 'luftbrot'.

nos.nlMuseum Berlijn exposeert 36 jaar oud DDR-brood: 'Weggooien was uitgesloten'"Het hoorde op een of andere manier bij ons gezin", zegt Michael Hagedorn. "Het was duidelijk dat niemand er nog van zou eten, maar weggooien was uitgesloten."

@crankyflier.com Hello Brett, I am a regular listener to the podcast The Air Show. You are a frequent flyer, I am not. Maybe I fly once a year. My way of being cranky is that I am cranky when I can't fit my legs (I am 6 ft 6) in a regular seat,and the emergencyexit is not always available anymore.

DHS wasted taxpayer money buying 11 warehouses for about $1.07 billion to expand concentration camps. Now ICE plans to sell seven at a loss after piling up more than $20 million in unrecoverable costs — including zoning assessments, title insurance, utilities, security, and other services.

DILLEY DETENTION CENTER NUMBER 2 Call it a “staging facility” all you want. The contract says detention. There’s playground equipment behind the fence. And Dilley has already held children far beyond the roughly 20-day Flores limit. Now they’re building “Dilley 2.” We know what this is!

Op zoveel verschillende plekken lijkt me dat zeer onwaarschijnlijk, en Prinsjesdag interesseert Putin geen snars. Boeren lijken mij verreweg de grootste kanshebbers.
