True, but the generation that tends to vote far right is the boomer generation - it's the generation that failed to pass on rising prosperity and gave us the climate crisis.

Interesting study. Let's hope it isn't taken to mean that we need to raise as many cows as today in Europe so we maintain 'open' pastures

Yes, the methane is that bad. Fossil methane is also bad but we need to halve methane emissions in the next 10 years or so to have a shot at keeping global warming to ~1.5-1.7c

Useful to note the maximum theoretical energy that rain contains, per the article: 0.2kW/M2. Solar is ~1.3kW/m2.

Yes and that is the point: Britain should be proud to have supported Ukraine early and well. But now it lacks the follow through to think about Ukraine after the war.

Sad for Ukraine. I wonder whether we're back to WWI with long, static defensive lines and grinding, awful, slow advances.
