If freshwater is running out in a state surrounded by 4 of the 5 Great Lakes, what hope do any of us have?
You could always dust off this old chestnut:
Wall Street wants electric cars.
Some do, some are still desperately clinging to what they’ve known – and done well by – their whole career.
The financial industry is a Pushme-Pullyou right now on this. It seems to be company by company…you don’t last long working in a place that falls on the other side of this ideological demarcation. But as a whole, both sides are simultaneously trying to move forward in their own direction.
Record floods in SE Queensland, worse than the record floods of a couple of years ago. A year’s worth of rain dumped in a week. The same system has moved south and is now over Sydney, having gone over northern NSW. There have been multiple deaths, mostly from elderly people who couldn’t be rescued from their houses in time before they drowned. (One report I saw was of an 80 year old woman who died, and couldn’t be reached in time because the person who was next door with a boat was rescuing his own mother, and he basically had to choose who he saved.)

I might be missing something here, but if Finland is already using wood, wouldn’t it be better to replace Russian wood with Finnish wood,.rather than restart the ecological disaster that is peat cutting?
I think it’s political.
Centre Party chair Annika Saarikko on Sunday said Finland had reduced peat burning too rapidly.
Centre Party is a agrarian party and they aren’t doing so hot in the polls.
