No one goes to war over a solar panel Fossil fuels aren't a shield against chaos. They are a conduit for it.

"Real energy security is about reducing strategic vulnerability. Every rooftop solar panel is an act of economic sovereignty. Every wind turbine is a barrel of oil that never has to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Every MW-hour of storage makes a grid less dependent on a pipeline or a tanker."

Climate change is speeding up — the pace nearly doubled in ten years Earth is now warming at a rate of around 0.35 ºC per decade, fresh analysis finds.

"Global temperatures have been soaring as people burn fossil fuels and release heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere. By 2030, the planet is on track to breach — and stay above — the threshold of the 2015 Paris agreement: 1.5 ºC above pre-industrial levels"

Norwegian guidelines for chronic fatigue and ME/CFS Drafts for these guidelines were published last month by the Directorate of Health to big disappointment for being outdated. Three patient organisations have taken dissent. Patients are calling for a separate guideline for ME/CFS. Blog posts and opinion pieces on the guidelines are shared in the thread. The Norwegian ME Association has a survey, open until March 22nd, where patients with ME or Long Covid can give input for the association's response to the guidelines draft. David Tuller has written two articles summarising the issues: - Norway's Problematic Draft Guideline Combining Long-Term Fatigue and ME/CFS - More on Norway's Problematic Draft Guideline for "Long-Term Fatigue-including ME/CFS" Survey l Thread

Post COVID-19 condition is associated with altered regional cerebral blood volume as revealed by dynamic susceptibility contrast MRI — MacIntosh et al. "The findings revealed a pattern of lower rCBV in the PCC group relative to controls in ROIs that have previously been reported in analogous structural and perfusion neuroimaging studies."

Plasma proteomic profile reveals persistent immune activation in post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection — Fineschi et al. "our extended proteomic analysis shows that key proinflammatory cytokines characterizing the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection remain dysregulated in individuals with PASC, even long after the initial infection." "This persistent immune perturbation suggests a failure of proper immune resolution that may not require detectable viral persistence in plasma"

Oh no! this wasn't the neoliberal plan at all!
The plan was for SARS2 to be like the flu and many old would die, that infecting the children would make them immune.
Not more pressure on care, not more drainage of the economy by the useless.

In Sweden, 10% of healthy life years have been lost since the pandemic began.

That’s one out of every ten years gone.

Accumulating damage and not immunity. Something I would have thought obvious prior to, waves hands at the last six years.

Screenshot of a news article from The Post titled “Repeatedly getting Covid doesn’t build immunity, ‘it’s more like accumulating damage’,” written by Melanie Earley of RNZ and dated March 10, 2026. Below the headline is a portrait of leading vaccinologist and associate professor Dr Helen Petousis-Harris, shown facing the camera against a dark background. The article discusses how repeated COVID-19 infections may cause cumulative harm rather than building lasting immunity.

"Leading vaccinologist Helen Petousis-Harris says there's not enough awareness of the impact of COVID-19 on overall health."

"What many people don't realise is that getting COVID repeatedly is not like building immunity, it's more like accumulating damage," she says.

Yorkshire Water receives fresh funding despite sewage fines and pay row Private equity group EQT to take 42% stake as supplier faces scrutiny over environmental record and CEO’s pay

Swedish private equity group takes 42% stake in Yorkshire Water.

Thames Water, Northumbrian Water, Southern Water, South West Water and Wessex Water gutted by PE.

All have criminal convictions, dump sewage in rivers, profiteer. 90% of England's water is foreign owned.

Expect more looting.

Since the pandemic began, healthy life years have declined in every Scandinavian country.

Wow, look at these events!

The Hunger Gap A gulf in public understanding prevents us from seeing how and why our food supply is at risk.

In 2023, I sought to explain to a parliamentary committee what a structural collapse of the global food system would look like, and why this this is plausible - even likely. I think the likelihood has just ratcheted up a notch. I beg you to read and understand. Thanks

One of the biggest blind spots in the COVID response wasn’t just droplets vs airborne. It was the failure to act on asymptomatic / pre-symptomatic transmission even though evidence appeared right from January 202. Thread 🧵 Followed by image of map of Bavaria (Jan 2020) and cruise ship (Feb 2020)

I'm no expert on when it will be clear that Trump has no conventional military options, but I would have thought, it would start to become clear in the next 2 weeks or so. I suspect the desperation of Trump to get support from the UK and other European nations, is so we're all in this together.

Here's a new look at SSTs, now including the official boundaries for "Gobsmacking Bananas," "Uncharted Territory" and "Totally F&%ked".

Look at 1998/99, 2016/17 and 2024/25. This is what to expect in 2027/28 if a monster El Nino comes to pass later this year.

Covid is not a local issue. It's a pandemic.

Lots of good reasons to mask, including:

“I like to keep an air of mystery”

This International Women’s Day remember there’s a President who calls female journalists “piggy” and “ugly”.

Who said “grab ‘em by the p*ssy”.

Who’s been accused of child rape and found liable for sexual assault.

Who just blew up 168 little girls in Iran.

We have a long way to go.
