Absent from article is impact on price of fertiliser shooting through the roof and impact on food prices - sommething like 30% of worldโ€™s urea passes through straight of Hormuz- so even if we had more nuclear/ renewables - impact on food security is consequential

Tice also doesnโ€™t understand supply and demand. Our reserves are minuscule so would not impact global supply / prices.
Tice is only really shilling for investors / operators- and is relying on voter ignorance.

From Local Action to Global Transformation Paris As Our Interactive Classroom

"Mum, I think Paris really saved you."

In 2025, we brought 20 U.S. leaders of McKnight Foundation to #Paris for a deep dive into the city's transformation

The results? Participants returned to launch cross-departmental initiatives, redesign bike lane specifications, & even buy their first e-bikes

Good luck with narrow winding country lanes and villages and towns whose infrastructure is unsuited to such monstrous nonsense- and to inevitable pedestrian/ cyclist fatalities

Chronic ocean heating fuels โ€˜staggeringโ€™ loss of marine life, study finds Fish levels fall by 7.2% with as little as 0.1C of warming per decade, northern hemisphere research shows

โ€œA 7.2% decline for every tenth of a degree per decade might sound small. But compounded over time, across entire ocean basins, it represents a staggering and deeply concerning loss of marine life.โ€

A tariff โ€œrefundโ€ mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. Thatโ€™s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

Wide protected bike-lane in Downtown Vancouver filled with people on bikes.

Wide protected bike-lane in Downtown Vancouver filled with people on bikes.

Itโ€™s really important that #Vancouverโ€™s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that theyโ€™re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.

Safe bike-lanes mean business.
