    Macbeth at the International Seabed Authority

    Macbeth begins from a problem that law also knows well: prophecy does not merely announce the future; it reorganises the present. The Weird Sisters do not place the crown on Macbeth’s head. They make kingship appear as a future already waiting. Ambition borrows the language

  2. It feels surreal that our democratically elected Prime Minister has to say that #Denmark is ready to defend itself against an ally. Right now, the #US feels like a bigger threat to Denmark than Russia.

  4. You don't take land from your allies. Good friends and allies respect each other's countries and borders.

    I think that if Kamala Harris had become President, the #US would have respected #Greenland as part of the Kingdom of #Denmark, just as allies should. Strong alliances are built on trust and respect, not on taking territory.

  6. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦭🚧 Neil, a 1,000 kg southern elephant #seal in #Tasmania, crushes traffic cones and barriers each year during molting season, rubbing against them to shed his coat.

    Wildlife experts from Tasmania’s Department of #NaturalResources and #Environment say it’s not mischief but instinct. As Neil matures, officials warn he may become more territorial, urging fans to keep 20 m away.

  13. Menjaga Bumi untuk Generasi Mendatang: Tanggung Jawab Bersama dalam Konservasi Lingkungan

    Di era modern yang ditandai dengan perkembangan teknologi dan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang pesat, isu lingkungan menjadi salah satu tantangan terbesar yang dihadapi umat manusia. Perubahan iklim, berkurangnya kawasan hutan, pencemaran udara dan air, serta menurunnya keanekaragaman hayati merupakan dampak nyata dari aktivitas manusia yang kurang memperhatikan keseimbangan alam. Di tengah kondisi tersebut, kesadaran akan pentingnya konservasi lingkungan menjadi semakin relevan. Foto ini […]

  20. Press Release: Rising #Emissions, Depleting #Water and Vanishing #Land—UN Scientists: #AI Is Threatening #NaturalResources for Billions

    By 2030, AI's water use will match the needs of 1.3 billion people while its power use triples that of 650 million, UN University investigation warns

    Date Published
    3 Jun 2026

    Excerpt: "Inference, efficiency, and the rebound effect

    "Public discussion has largely focused on the energy required to train massive models. Training GPT-3 was estimated to require 1.3 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of electricity, while estimates suggest GPT-4 consumed between 50 and 70 GWh. However, the report reveals this framing is outdated. Once a model is deployed, inference—the continuous running of models to answer everyday user prompts—becomes the dominant cost, accounting for 80 to 90 per cent of total #AI energy use. ChatGPT alone is estimated to process around 2.5 billion prompts per day, translating to roughly 383 GWh of electricity per year for a single product. Offsetting associated carbon emissions would require 2.6 million tree seedlings grown for 10 years, enough trees to cover a land area the size of Manhattan. The water footprint is equivalent to the minimum annual domestic water needs of roughly 500,000 people in Sub-Saharan Africa, and the land footprint is equal to over 800 football fields."
