  5. #banks produce nothing #own everything? #unsustainable
    systemic + fatal flaw of modern day #fiat #monopoly #capitalism = modern day #feudalism: not #education or #intelligence earns most #money, no whoever owns #assets everyone else is dependant on = #exploitation = will ultimately lead to less #innovation + destruction of #mankind, #rich vs #poor + #inequality growing = #collapse of #society "thank you"

    = no matter how #smart #people or #government are or act: will lose game to whoever prints #money + buys = owns #assets = #bank #centralbank
    why? because new #fiat #money created of air whenever someone get's #loan approved (#governments usually get approved) problem: #interest on this #loan is NEVER created

    to pay #interest on #loan #government needs to take something away from someone (no matter domestic or foreign)

    #solution: invest every USD + EUR + Peso in your own #INDEPENDENCE from #financesystem #water, #food, #energy, DO IT NOW!

  6. "Wars are not won by destroying capabilities alone, but by securing #sustainable & #legitimate #political #outcomes. On both counts, the #US & #Israel are falling short. #Iran, by contrast, does not need #military #victory. It only needs to endure, impose #costs, & outlast its adversaries. This is the #logic of #asymmetric #conflict: the weaker power wins by not losing, while the stronger one loses when the costs of continuing become #unsustainable."

  7. "The increasing severity of #wildfires and #drought highlights that reforming #ForestStewardship – taking better care of the forests, including safeguarding #OldGrowthForests – is one of our best hopes to protect communities across B.C.

    Harmful #forestry practices like #clearcutting and #unsustainable #IndustrialLogging make extreme heat and wildfires worse. #Clearcuts are #tinderboxes, more prone to creating embers because dead trees and branches dry out in the hot sun and become more #flammable. Tree plantations and improperly tended young forests also increase wildfire risk: Younger trees have thinner bark and low-hanging branches that can act as ladder fuels, and the trees are often planted too close together, making it easy for fire to spread.

    Fortunately, intact and properly managed #forests are more resilient to the worsening wildfires and heatwaves. For example, #OldGrowth #rainforests have dense canopies which provide cooling shade that resists fire. They are cooler and wetter than young forests, acting as giant sponges. Old-growth trees in the drier interior have thick bark, high branches and are widely spaced which all reduce #WildfireRisk.

  8. #SpacePolitics
    “It got funded as a #rocket to #nowhere, and we at #NASA had to figure out something to do with it,” #Garver says. Legacy contractors like #Boeing continued to receive large bonus payments 💰 for working on the #SLS, despite delays and mushrooming #costs.
    Critics of the #SLS argue that the rocket is #unsustainable by #design, relying on an old and potentially quite #expensive way to get to #space. Much of SLS is a holdover from the #spaceshuttle. But while the shuttle #orbiter, #engines, and external #tanks were designed to be #reusable, SLS and its engines were not.

    “They’ve designed a rocket that is basically #unsustainable, because it’s completely #throwaway. The only bit that comes back is #Orion

    “Depending on how you look at it, the #SLS is either a product of a #broken #system that curries #favor to #wealthy 💰 industries or an example of representative #democracy working as it should,” technologyreview.com/2023/01/0

    Is #Artemis based on

  9. RT @[email protected]

    Industrial civilization has created a world where entire forests are destroyed and transported around the world on ships to be consumed or used in power stations as "green" energy. The system is completely unsustainable.

    The irony is that the name of the tanker is Global Wisdom.

  10. #Fuel will become 25-30 percent more #expensive for a lot of #people in #Hungary from January 2023 - Daily News Hungary

    Mr Holoda is a former #secretary of state for #energetics under the #Orbán #government. He told mfor.hu yesterday that the government’s fuel #priceCap scheme will be abolished soon because it leads to #supply challenges and it is #unsustainable.

  11. Tariff us, #tariff you.

    But could this #AuChina #tradeWar lead to adopting the most destructive, #unsustainable, #unhealthy, peaceThreatening and highly #centralised, #energy of all — #nuclearEnergy?

    Given that #China are going #nuclear. Rather than try to #trade with them maybe an #embargo is for the best?

    Can #Australia reduce #uranium exports, only enough for #radiationTreatment? Thoughts?
