The board of Tesla just blew a golden opportunity to get a giant albatross from around its neck by ditching the man who has turned the brand to ๐Ÿ’ฉ .

Theyโ€™ve instead paid $30bn to sign their own death warrant as a business.

This is what the phrase โ€œwiping them off the face of the Earthโ€ actually looks like. Devastating aerial footage of the literal annihilation of #Gaza by Israel, truly one of the worst war crimes of the last century.

Well that explains it. No idea, however ridiculous or inane, goes uncovered, as long as itโ€™s being pushed by a billionaire, and is sufficiently click-baity.

(After all, US billionaires have done such a great job, so why not let the plutocrats take over here too?)

Same genius had this published in response to an article of mine in the Examiner some time back. More spurious references to the UNFCCC and sciency-sounding percentages.

Thanks Werner, you wouldnโ€™t have an English translation by any chance?

Letters to the Editor: Agriculture in Ireland plays only a minor role in global warming 'I discovered a strange phenomenon โ€” the complete absence of the vast herds of cows that we are told are producing vast quantities of methane and carbon dioxide'

Glib climate denial of the โ€œIโ€™m a scientist myselfโ€ variety, smuggled into national media via the soft underbelly of the Letters Page. Depressing stuff.

Check your history books, Zionist. The land of Palestine was *invaded* by colonisers who massacred thousands and expelled 750,000 and stole their land in 1948, and have terrorised & humiliated the indigenous population ever since. Send all the illegal settlers back to Russia, US, Eastern Europe.

Huge turnout on the streets of Kilkenny today to express outrage at the #gaza genocide and Irelandโ€™s solidarity with the people of Palestine.

Youโ€™re not wrong. And *they* know it too, hence the backlash.

Letโ€™s keep building this platform into a place where we can collaborate and share ideas for a better world for all!

Thereโ€™s renewable energy ads and thereโ€™s mother**cking wind farm ads. This, blissfully, is the latter.

This weekโ€™s Last Word on the environment with Matt Cooper coming up shortly on Today FM. Topics include the deposit return scheme, US-EPA ruling on CO2 as a pollutant & global aquifers drying up

Great news: the High Court has granted permission for a full judicial review of the government's order proscribing Palestine Action under the Terrorism Act.
Let's hope he government's idiotic and draconian order is overturned.

Agreed. However, a HUGE percentage of Israelis enthusiastically endorse the Gaza genocide and annexation of the West Bank, ie wiping Palestine off the map. This is NOT a minority view in Israel.

Thatโ€™s a pretty good summary. Iโ€™ve a feeling we will be seen as pariahs by all future generations.

Read this, from the Wall Street Journal, a rag owned by corrupt oligarch Rupert Murdoch, and weep at how these power-drunk anti science lunatics are accelerating the final collapse of human civilisation.

Trump is a gangster who belongs in prison. Nothing further to be said about him.
