The ‘White Saviour’ Deal For NatureThere is no denying that the world’s biodiversity is under serious threat. A recent proposal that has gained significant traction to address this decline is to designate 30 per cent of the earth’s surface as protected areas by 2030 (commonly referred to as the Global Deal for Nature, or the 30×30 Plan). This proposal will be discussed at the world’s top-most biodiversity summit expected in 2022 in Kunming, China. The 30 per cent reservation for “nature” is itself viewed as part of a roadmap towards the idea that “Nature Needs Half” – a campaign calling for half of the world to be ... read more

Capitalist Bonanza: Share Buybacks Reached Record High In 2021The coronavirus pandemic continued to wreak havoc in 2021, with the Omicron and Delta variants, supply chain disruptions, and inflation battering the global working class. In the United States, companies continued to put profits before worker well-being while the Biden administration refused to provide relief like continuing the child tax credit. Amid much bad news for workers last year emerged a key victor: wealthy shareholders. Share buybacks hit a record high last year.

It is headed for what scientists call “an extinction-level event.” He calls on one particular group to do wh... read more

Are the Navy SEALS Ready to Bring the Fight to China?*Kris Osborn* *Navy SEALs, United States* Great power competition with China and Russia is back. That means Special Forces are training and planning for the next big war. *Key point: *Major power war by no means precludes the need for small unit combat operations, but may in fact require more of them.
