Can Urban Mining Help To Save The Planet?We live in an era of mass overproduction. Offices, apartments, cars, ships, aeroplanes, mobile phones, laptops, batteries, televisions, furniture, air fryers, hot tubs, elevators and escalators. A countless multitude of objects that belong to the anthroposphere – a term for everything that people have made and how it all interacts with the planet. Many of these products end up as waste, buried in landfill, incinerated or dumped – with catastrophic environmental consequences. At the same time, mining companies continue to pollute the planet, exploit local communities and produce hu... read more

The United States and the European Union have levied sanctions on an unprecedented scale against Russia, energy prices have skyrocketed, and with the Black Sea closed, the world’s most fertile region is no longer linked to its markets. This will cause an appreciation of food prices that could wreak havoc in the European periphery. Read the full story, “The Middle Easts Food Crisis Spells Disaster”, on globalissues.org → read more

With Detection Of Earendel, Hubble Just Set A Viewing Distance Record Of 28 Billion LightyearsFermilab, now a tourist attraction, found the Higgs Boson before the Large Hadron Collider did, but the lack of comparative luminosity made it a struggle to know that as quickly as the LHC did. That's why the discovery of a star by Hubble 28 billion lightyears away, a new record, may not last long if everything goes as planned with its long-delayed successor, the James Webb Space Telescope. It's so far away that Hubble can't tell astronomers if it is even one star or two, because statistical blips in the data need more clarity that a deeper space telescope will provide. read more read more

An alternative view on the transgender dilemmaOn Monday I published an article in my intermittent "Doofus Of The Day" series, highlighting a trans woman (i.e. a man "transitioning" to "become" a woman) who complained of period pains, despite having none of the plumbing, body parts or nerves necessary to experience them. I also made it clear that *in general,* I don't regard "trans" as a genuine phenomenon. That said, I've mentioned before in these pages that I know several people who've "transitioned" from one sex to another who appear to be very genuine in their desire to switch, and who've demonstrated for many years tha... read more

In a speech that he gave in September 1929, he talked about the changing balance of power between Asia and Europe in the past, and proposed that a rejuvenated Asia could arise again: “History tells us how in the days of old Asia conquered and held sway over a large portion of Europe and in those days Europe was mightily afraid of Asia.
