So, Uber asked me if removing UberX (the standard option) would make me sad. They wanted to know if I'd choose a different option or leave the platform entirely.

In all honesty, that would allow only the newer, eco-friendly vehicles to run around, so that's something. The prices aren't any higher, especially if you choose the wait&save option.

The downside, from what I've noticed, is that (all???) EVs have ad displays in the back. Look, I want to do my part and reduce CO₂ emissions, but I absolutely detest ads. Plus, I'm paying for my ride. At least make them free, you know, like those awful mobile games that people play in the bathroom.

Oil Things Must Pass
==================

[Verse 1]
Our governments are always warring
Killing keeps gas price at bay
Poor people’s blood, rich man’s profit
I just don’t believe what they say

[Chorus]
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away

[Verse 2]
We’re destroying all the natural greenery
No place left, for the kids to play
They choke on toxic fumes, while coughing
It doesn’t have to be this way.

[Chorus]
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away

[Bridge]
Oil things must pass
No human beings can last
So we must switch to solar power now, without delay

[Verse 3]
Sunlight doesn’t cost a penny.
Solar batteries get recharged all day.
Planet Earth heated up, despite all warnings.
Let’s cool it, before it’s too late.

[Chorus]
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away
Oil things must pass
Oil things must pass away

- Ashwin Dixit.

American Investors To Explore Mega Infrastructure, Energy Deals And Other Opportunities In The Philippines

Several business executives and investors from the United States are set to visit the Philippines next week to explore investment opportunities in the nation’s infrastructure sector, energy sector, and more, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. The American investors will engage with their Filipino counterparts during the planned 5-day trade mission.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

More than 25 American business executives and investors will visit the country next week for a business mission as the United States (US) seeks to deepen its economic ties with the Philippines, which recently secured upper-middle-income status.

In a statement, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said the US business delegation would mount a five-day trade mission across major economic areas in the Philippines from July 6 to 10.

The delegation includes business leaders and investors from the Northeast and Midwest regions of the US. The mission is organized by the DTI’s Philippine Trade and Investment Center (PTIC) in New York and the Philippine Consulates General in New York and Chicago.

The DTI said the business mission aims to strengthen economic ties between the two longtime trade partners while also encouraging US companies to invest more in the country’s growing economy.

Based on the latest country income classifications of the World Bank, the Philippines has moved up from lower-middle-income to upper-middle-income status. This was based on the country’s gross national income (GNI) per capita estimate for 2025, which reached a record $4,850.

The DTI noted that the upcoming visit also comes at a time when the Philippines is actively positioning itself as a key partner for US companies looking to expand in Asia.

During the business mission, the US delegation will meet with Philippine government leaders and local business owners to explore business, tourism, and investment opportunities.

The US business leaders will also attend business meetings, informational briefings, and tours of key economic areas in Manila, Clark, Subic, and Corregidor.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you see a promising future between the United States and the Philippines when it comes to economics and investment under the leadership of US President Donald Trump? Are you convinced the corruption within the Philippines is no longer a turn-off for American investors?

You may answer in the comments below. If you prefer to answer privately, you may do so by sending me a direct message online.

Klimakiller Windrad? Wenn das stimmt, ist der Föhn in deinem Bad ein Kohlekraftwerk.

Windenergie hat einen CO₂-Rucksack aus der Produktion – wie jede Technik. Aber: Dieser ist schnell „abgearbeitet“. Eine moderne Windanlage gleicht ihre Emissionen je nach Standort bereits nach wenigen Monaten aus – und produziert dann jahrzehntelang nahezu emissionsfrei Strom.

Zum Vergleich: Ein Braunkohlekraftwerk „rechnet sich“ nie – es pustet für jede Kilowattstunde über 1000 g CO₂ in die Luft.

Fazit: Wer das Klima schützen will, kommt an Wind nicht vorbei. Auch in Sachsen.

The Silent Killers in #IndianCountry: #Copper, #Lithium, #Uranium and #Plutonium

Judge finds plutonium plants in #NewMexico and #SouthCarolina violated environmental laws

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Oct. 10, 2024

"The U.S. government's plan for increased plutonium production at #LosAlamos National Laboratory, in the heart of Pueblo lands in northern New Mexico, has been delayed by a federal judge.

"Continuing the U.S. legacy of poisoning Indian country with #radiation, this comes as the U.S. government is granting leases to foreign #mining companies targeting Native #sacred lands and communities.

"#CopperMining is targeting San CarlosApache's sacred #OakFlat; #Hualapai are suing the US Department of Interior to halt lithium mining at their sacred spring Ha'Kamwe'; and the U.S. government is promoting the ongoing digging into the #Paiute Massacre Site in northern Nevada for #lithium, in violation of all federal laws that protect Native religious and historic sites, the environment and endangered species.

"Uranium mining in the Grand Canyon threatens #Havasupai's aquifer, the haul route endangers everyone in the Four Corners region, and the uranium mill at White Mesa Ute in #Utah is poisoning #Utes.

"Interior Sec. #DebHaaland said in Farmington, N.M., that Los Alamos Labs would be the leader in the so-called '#GreenEnergy transition' in the #FourCorners region.

"More than 500 radioactive #UraniumMill sites remain on the #NavajoNation that have not been cleaned up by the U.S. #EPA, which deceives the public by announcing plans and promises to clean up the #ColdWar sites.

"In the current federal lawsuit, a federal judge in South Carolina ruled that U.S. energy officials illegally neglected to study impacts to the #environment in efforts to increase plutonium production for nuclear weapons in New Mexico and South Carolina.

"'South Carolina District Court Judge Mary Geiger Lewis sided with environmental, #AntiNuclear proliferation and community groups last week who sued the National Nuclear Security Administration (#NNSA), which oversees the nuclear weapons stockpile as part of the U.S. Department of Energy [#DOE],' reports Source New Mexico.

"The U.S. is investing billions into restarting the manufacture of #PlutoniumPits, the grapefruit-sized spheres developed for #nuclear weapons. The plutonium is produced from uranium.

"'The federal government halted its manufacturing program at the #RockyFlatsPlant in #Colorado in 1989 after an FBI raid due to safety concerns and #EnvironmentalCrimes,' Source New Mexico reports.

"The U.S. government's #AtomicBombTesting in #Nevada left a trail of cancer and death for #WesternShoshone. The documentary 'Downwind' reveals the truth.

"'This is a very serious issue and that's why I can't let it go. I can't move on. People say, 'oh, why don't you just let it go?' Because it's killing my family. It's killing my land. It's killing my people. And that will not stand. It's being done in secret. And killing Indians in secret will not stand,' said Ian Zabarte, Principal Man of the Western Bands of the #ShoshoneNation of Indians. Zabarte is featured in '#Downwind' about radiation poisoning from U.S. #NuclearTests.

"Currently, foreign companies -- which receive the profits and find it easy to avoid clean up and responsibility for #environmental crimes and deaths from #cancer -- are receiving the mining leases from the U.S. government. The leases are granted by the U.S. Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and in the case of #UraniumMining in the #GrandCanyon, it is the USDA's Forestry Service. #Biden's attorneys have joined the lawsuit with #RioTinto to devastate #OakFlat.

"Australian and Canadian mining corporations are devastating Native lands and communities, poisoning the water and causing widespread cancer.
Rio Tinto, targeting Apaches #OakFlat, is an Australian company which destroyed 46,000 years of #Aboriginal sacred history in caves in #Australia.

"Another Australian mining company is targeting #Hualapai's sacred site. It is #Hawstone / #ArizonaLithium, in Perth, Australia.

"#EnergyFuels, now uranium mining in the Grand Canyon, and operating the uranium mill at #WhiteMesaUte, is a Canadian company. Another Canadian company is digging into the #Paiute Massacre Site. It is #LithiumAmericas.
#Hopi judge #DianeHumetewa granted a temporary restraining order to halt the lithium mining at #Hualapai's sacred spring."

Lakota Horseback Riders Lead the Demand 'Haul No! Shut Down Uranium Mine in Grand Canyon'

"'#HaulNo! #UraniumMining has got to go!' was the protest cry as #Lakota horseback riders led the demand to shut down #PinyonPlain #UraniumMine in the #GrandCanyon on Saturday, continuing the demand to shut down the uranium mine endangering #Havasupai drinking #water and their #aquifer. "

"The legacy of death from uranium mining already spreads across the Southwest. Scattered #radioactive tailings are spread across the #NavajoNation from #ColdWar #uranium mines, which the U.S. has not cleaned up. The dangerous processing mill in southeastern #Utah is now bringing in radioactive waste from Europe.

"The genocide continues -- from the genocide in #Palestine that the United States is producing weapons for, to the slow and toxic genocide in the Southwest -- where the U.S. allows uranium mining to continue.

"Nearby, lithium mining in Hualapai's Ceremonial Place has been halted.
Federal Judge Diane Humetewa, Hopi, granted a temporary restraining order this week and halted the Interior Department's permit for an Australian company, #HawkstoneEnergy aka #ArizonaLithium, to mine for lithium at Hualapai's Ceremonial Sacred Spring.

"Attorneys for the #BidenAdministration and Interior Sec. #DebHaaland told the federal court in Phoenix that the #LithiumMining at Hualapai's #CeremonialSpring was necessary for the 'transition to #GreenEnergy.'"

BREAKING NEWS! Federal Judge Halts #Haaland's Runaway Train of Destruction of #NativeAmerican #SacredPlaces in #Arizona

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, August 21, 2024

"In a bizarre twist, attorneys for the U.S. government said an Australian company has to drill into #Hualapai's Ceremonial Place because it is necessary for '#GreenEnergy transition.' A federal judge ruled otherwise and halted the drilling for #lithium with a temporary restraining order.

"The head of a #Navajo tribal enterprise had already rushed in and agreed to head up the drilling into the sacred. On Monday, Hualapai defenders began an encampment to protect their sacred land and water.

"U.S. District Judge Diane Humetewa granted a temporary restraining order, and became the first judge to halt Biden and Haaland's runaway train of destruction, which includes granting mining permits at Native sacred places for lithium, and bulldozing Native historic villages and burial sites for #WindEnergy -- in violation of federal laws.

[...]

"In the usual scam of environmental impact statements, the U.S. government claimed the drilling would have 'no significant impact' on Hualapai's Ceremonial Place and the Sacred Spring. #Biden's Interior Department, headed by #DebHaaland, and her BLM issued the drilling permit to Australia's #HawkstoneEnergy, now calling itself #ArizonaLithium.

"The #HualapaiTribe is seeking a preliminary injunction to prohibit the drilling, pointing out that it violates the National Historic Preservation Act and National #Environmental Policy Act.

"The Ha’Kamwe' springs are on Hualapai land known as Cholla Canyon. There is archaeological evidence of the tribe’s presence there dating to 600 A.D.

“Today our people celebrate the granting of the temporary restraining order, but understand our fight is not over,” Hualapai Tribe Chairman Duane Clarke said in a statement Wednesday. “We will continue to bring awareness to the protection of our water.”
Ha'Kam'we Springs

"Meanwhile, Haaland is also being sued by the Tohono O'odham and San Carlos Apache Nations for destruction of their ancient village sites, medicine gathering areas, and burial places in the San Pedro Valley in southern Arizona.
Bulldozers for #SunZia transmission lines are destroying sacred and historic sites in violation of federal laws. A Tucson federal judge refused to halt the destruction. Pattern Energy plans to take wind energy from New Mexico to California.

"In the ongoing fake green energy transition, the Navajo Transitional Energy Company signed an agreement with the Australian lithium company to head the drilling operation."

In the Dirty Business of Faking Green, a Third #Arizona Tribe Sues #DebHaaland for Desecration

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews
August 13, 2024

"In the dirty business of faking #GreenEnergy, Interior Department head Deb Haaland is being sued by the #Hualapai Tribe for approval of a #LithiumMine targeting their #SacredSpring. It is the same lithium mine where an Australian company has hired the head of a #NavajoNation enterprise to lead the drilling for lithium and violating the sacred.

"Deb Haaland, #LagunaPueblo, is now being sued by three tribes in Arizona for ongoing destruction of religious and historic places, sacred places where #TohonoOodham, #SanCarlosApache , and Hualapai have offered their prayers since time immemorial.

"In the lawsuit, Hualapai tell of the drilling for lithium, and the way the Interior's Bureau of Land Management concealed the plans for the lithium mine."

[...]

"The Tohono O'odham and San Carlos Apache Nations filed for a restraining order on Haaland, which was denied by a Tucson federal judge, but the tribes continue the legal battle. Haaland, present at the groundbreaking of #PatternEnergy's wind project, is promoting the #SunZia transmission line to take wind energy from New Mexico to California, now cutting a path of destruction across pristine regions of the Southwest. Pattern Energy in San Francisco is owned by the #CanadaPensionFund.

"The mainstream media is also concealing the fact that the CEO of the #NavajoNation enterprise which claims to be transitioning to green energy is heading the project to desecrate Hualapai's sacred ceremonial place. The so-called #NavajoTransitionalEnergyCompany also owns #CoalMines in Wyoming and Montana.

"The Navajo Transitional Energy Company stated in March that it had signed the mining agreement and its CEO #Vern Lund would lead the mining operation for the Australian company."

From 2020: Why #Aboriginal people have little say over energy projects on their land

Published: August 10, 2020
by Lilly O'Neill, et al.

"Renewable energy projects come with a caveat: most #TraditionalOwners in #Australia have little legal say over them.

- The #NativeTitleAct does not allow traditional owners to veto developments proposed for their land.

- The National Native Title Tribunal — which rules on disputes between native title holders and #companies — has sided with native title holders only three times, and with companies 126 times (of which 55 had conditions attached).

- #RioTinto’s agreement for the area including #JuukanGorge reportedly “gagged” traditional owners from objecting to any activities by the company, which then destroyed the 46,000-year-old rock shelters.

#PrayerHorseRide's Third Annual March Ride Begins March 17, in Schurz, Nevada

Reconnecting and Revitalizing #Traditional Ways of Life Threatened by Destructive #Mining Resource Extractions Supporting "#GreenEnergy"

By Prayer Horse Ride, via #CensoredNews

SCHURZ, Nevada -- "Prayer Horse Ride "#NanesootuhinaPookooGoobakatudu," is getting ready to begin our annual ride March 17th-26th, from Schurz, #Nevada through Yerington, Fallon, Wadsworth and Nixon, through Lovelock, then Orovada, and ending in #PeeheeMuhuh (#ThackerPass in the McDermitt Caldera), in the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the #Paiute, #Shoshone, and #Bannock.
The Riders, walkers, and runners carry the prayer with each community. They'll move forward to raise awareness regarding lithium mining in Peehee Mu'huh and the McDermitt Caldera; AND also raise awareness to #CopperMining in the #PineNutHills, a holy place known to the #Nuwu; in honor and remembrance of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women / People (#MMIW/P) in Nevada; and to revitalize and restore cultural identity, languages, creativity, and supportive lifeways in our indigenous communities.

"Northern Nevada is the home of the #NorthernPaiute, #WesternShoshone, #Washoe, and #Bannock people. We, as descendants of them, will continue to give voices to the voiceless on #MotherEarth. To all of our relations.

"'We do this prayer ride to reconnect and revitalize our way of life,' says Josh Dini, Sr, a member of Walker River Paiute Tribe, #WaterProtector and #PrayerHorseRider, and a member of #AmericanIndianMovement Northern Nevada (#AIMNNV).

"Indigenous communities in the Great Basin and McDermitt Caldera are experiencing fast-tracked #mining and industrial development to support 'green energy,' and are threatened by #ecologically and #sociologically destructive resource extraction processes, most notably, #lithium and #copper mining, in areas in proximity to or within #communities, #reservations and #LandTrusts, and #SacredSites.

"#HeavyMetals extraction #poisons lands, air, and water. Sacred sites for ceremony, where ancestors are buried, where medicines grow, and where lifecycles are anchored, are destroyed.

"'Copper mining in our Pine Nut Hills takes away our knowledge and our identity of who we are,' says Dini, who explained the mining threatens an important Paiute medicine food, as well as numerous traditional campsites and sacred places that have been used for innumerable generations.

"'We ride in honor of the people on the land before extraction industries, past - present - and future. Here in Nevada we have places important to the indigenous culture that are considered America's sacrifice zones in search of 'green energy.'

"'We are Paiute and Shoshone allied with many of the federally recognized tribes in Nevada. We lead this prayer for Mother Earth,' says Gary McKinney, a Duck Valley Shoshone Paiute, water protector and Prayer Horse Rider, People of Red Mountain spokesperson, AIMNNV council member, and SIRGE Coalition Steering Committee member.

Prayer Horse Ride will visit #Indigenous northern Nevada communities affected by these issues including #WalkerRiver Paiute Tribe, #Yerington Paiute Tribe, #Fallon Paiute Shoshone Tribe, #Lovelock Paiute Tribe, and #PyramidLake Paiute Tribe. As Riders reach each community, they may share meals, engage in ceremony, share stories and songs, and teach and learn traditional arts, bringing the communities together to celebrate and remember the traditional ways.

"McKinney says, 'We ride to honor the land and the people - of the past, present, and the future. #LifeOverLithium."

"About Prayer Horse Ride: Established in 2022 to honor the late #MyronDewey, Water Protector, Paiute Shoshone journalist and drone pilot, and to continue prayers for cultural sites like Peehee Mu’huh (Thacker Pass), we are an indigenous led prayer group and community service organization that advocates for our indigenous communities, to protect what we have left and to raise your awareness to what our communities face, and most importantly, in gathering tribes back together to stand in unity, not by separation.

"'We'll continue this ride in the Vision of our Ancestors, for Healing, Strength and Awareness, in Prayer and Unity.'

"Prayer Horse Riders have a story to tell and you can reach out to PHR media liaison André Wesner for inquiries: [email protected]
