New Year new Avatar! As fascism rears its ugly head in every western 'democracy' there is an urgent need to acknowledge that opposition is the only remedy - as it was in the time of Mussolini, Franco and Hitler - because the time for timidity and hesitation is over. ✊

Many projects that earn big polluters carbon credits are farcical, writes Andrew Macintosh. This financial year, more than 10 million credits will be issued for fake reforestation projects in desert and semi-desert areas that have never been cleared of native vegetation. trib.al/LJXSqCV
How to fix the safeguard measure
Offsets have failed. Almost 30 years of experience has shown they rarely work and that the failings are systemic, arising not from technical issues but the governance dynamics that develop around them – principally, the incentive to use them to manipulate prices.

This is an extraordinary act of direct foreign interference by the US embassy in domestic Australian politics. The Australian government should publicly respond by rejecting efforts by the US embassy to dictate how Australia legislates for a digital duty of care.

The vicious and corrupt cycle of monopolization:
1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to price gouge consumers and shaft workers.
3) Use profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

In all the grandiose discussion about colonising Mars, I don't see much about how the soil is poisonous to us.
This was only discovered in 2008. It contains perchlorates, which are environmental toxins here on Earth.
Any human contact with Mars dust? Super-bad news in the long run.
