  7. Plastic #nurdles wash up on beaches 30 miles away

    26 August 2026

    "Nurdles are washing up on beaches more than 30 miles (48km) south of the source of a spillage of millions of #PlasticPellets.

    "Tonnes of the pieces of #plastic, known as nurdles, washed up across north-east #England after a crash between two vessels at the Port of Tyne damaged two #ShippingContainers.

    "The nurdles have now been spotted on beaches in #NorthYorkshire and #Teesside, and volunteers are worried the clean-up effort is being 'left to communities" and called for a "long-term plan'.

    "The Port of Tyne said its response had not been 'scaled back' and it continued to maintain the same level of on-water resource as throughout the clean-up operation.

    "The port said during the recent high tide period it had temporarily increased the number of boats and operatives deployed.

    "North East mayor Kim McGuinness said her team had contacted #SolisMarine , the company organising the clean-up on behalf of the #shipping insurers, to ask them to commit to responding to new nurdle deposits and asking why casual workers had been stood down.

    "She said: 'They should not be allowed to decide on their own what a proper clean-up looks like.

    " 'Our local volunteers have given up their time and worn themselves out combing beaches.'

    "Solis Marine has been approached for comment and a #Port OfTyne spokesperson said the response continued to be guided by Ambipar, experts in #EnvironmentalSpill response.

    " 'We remain committed to removing as much material from the river as possible within that expert guidance,' they said."

  8. I wonder if one reason we've seen so much growth in the in the last decade is that pretty much everyone who actually fought in or even just lived through WWII has now passed on.

    The philosopher George Santayana famously wrote: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

    Not only that, but I think a lot of these raise-the-flags, stop-the-boats folk genuinely believe that their ancestors from that time would support what they're doing — when probably the opposite is true.

  11. Vietnam wins 2026 Asia’s Best Cruise Destination award

    Have you been on a nice cruise within Asia over the past six months? During the recent 2026 World Cruise Awards, Vietnam won the Asia’s Best Cruise Destination award and ended the 2-year reign of Hong Kong, according to a news article by VnExpress. Vietnam also won another prestigious award.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the article of VnExpress. Some parts in boldface…

    Vietnam has won Asia’s Best Cruise Destination at the 2026 World Cruise Awards for the first time, ending Hong Kong’s two-year reign.

    Vietnam beat nine other nominees, including Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand, according to the results announced at the sixth annual ceremony in Jamaica on Oct. 12.

    Since the category began in 2021, Singapore has won twice, followed by the Philippines in 2023 and Hong Kong in 2024 and 2025.

    Vietnam’s cruising experiences range from journeys through limestone islands in the north to river voyages through the Mekong Delta in the south.

    In Ha Long Bay, passengers can spend the day sailing between limestone formations before anchoring overnight and waking up to views of the surrounding islands.

    Itineraries often combine time aboard with kayaking and cave visits, while onboard activities can include cooking classes and squid fishing, according to the Vietnam National Authority of Tourism’s official website.

    Mekong Delta cruises offer a closer look at life along the waterways, the tourism authority says.

    Boats pass palm-lined riverbanks and villages, with shore excursions allowing passengers to explore local markets and towns or sample tropical fruit.

    Vietnam also won the World’s Best River Cruise Destination at this year’s awards. Ha Long Cruise Port was named Asia’s Best Cruise Terminal.

    Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? If you were able to join a cruise in Vietnam, how was the experience and what are the things you enjoyed the most about it? Did you get a lot of value in return to what you paid for during the Vietnam cruise?

    Sixty-five #bats dropped dead inside a home custom-built to protect them. What went wrong? For bat moms looking for a place to raise their pups, it’s not the rent that’s through the roof, it’s the #temperature. But bat people are busy building them safer #homes: from tiny condos with #emergency exits to mini bark roosts stuck to trees."

  19. Let’s hear it for the night shift! 🦇

    It's #BatWeek, and these flying friends deserve a little appreciation for all the work they do after dark. Bats are some of nature's hardest-working winged wonders.

    They devour #insects, pollinate plants, spread seeds and help farmers by providing natural pest control.While they might have a spooky reputation, bats are an important part of healthy ecosystems.
