It works now, I can see all the beautiful solarpunk memes, thank you!

You can’t execute 268m people (75% of the population) very easily. You can let disease, famine, political violence do that more you.

I think that, at least short-term, the harshest effects of the WHO exit will be felt outside the US. Like, big parts of Africa already feel the sudden cancellation of USAID. Though within the US, you guys also have the anti-vaxx and general anti-modern-medicine movement, that got crazy influential.

Having said that, you seem to have a much better overview of their ideology and their plans. I hope they are wrong in overestimating the feasibility of that plan.

Having said that, living outside and away from US I tend to see it as a lesser evil when the US sabotages its international strength. The dollar loosing significance would be a big one. But I might be naive. Especially if it helps/speeds up the fascist takeover.

I hope that the US not paying fees to WHO will caution other lenders, and the dollar will go down soon.

Oh, I thought they already left. So there will be even more damage to global health programs now…

I wish the USAns can do it peacefully. But I feel desperate about anything that will work against their fascist government and business.

Honestly - however grim it might sound - I kinda hope so. The way US acts internationally, a civil war would at least involve one country, not many.

Totally agree. Would be fascinating to hear where the photos were taken, especially the house with timber framing.

I didn’t know solar panel murals were a thing. This is a w e s o m e!

I’m actually also confused how the difference does not depend on the perspective. If we say supply is too high, then it is overcapacity. If we say demand is too low, it is underutilization. For a profit-driven company, it is overcapacity, I understand that. But Know_not_Scotty_does@lemmy.world has a point, when we look at it from the perspective of the rest of us…

And I guess you would address overcapacity and underutilization differently. Overcapacity -> reduce production. Underutilization -> increase consumption (“installation” in this case sounds more fitting). To say that it is clearly an overcapacity issue sounds to me as if there is no way we could install more solar panels.

I would prefer to see the coal plants toppled first

I don’t want to be such a bummer, but coal being up overall is still disturbing

Yeah.

If vegetarianism was adopted by everyone by 2050, the world would have about seven million fewer deaths every year – and veganism would bring that up to eight million.

I guess this counts only health issues caused by meat consumption. And only human deaths ;)

PS: I love the idea of collecting sources with different languages, I agree that with the automatic translators, one can get quite some from foreign sources.

I know some amazing portals in Polish.

One about climate: https://naukaoklimacie.pl/

Another about “nature” in general (probably “environment” would be a more fitting translation here). I even wrote an article for them at the end of my Master’s (they had it go through a senior researcher later to check the quality) ^‿ https://naukadlaprzyrody.pl/

On both of the abovementioned portals you get scientists writing pop-science, answering questions, debunking myths, etc.

We also have “SmogLab” that used to focus just on smog issues, now is overall environmental. But I think for people from outside of Poland, especially coming from places with relatively good air quality (e.g. Scandinavia, but in this comparison, even all of Western Europe), the smog part might be especially interesting: It became a bit more of a news portal, though. https://smoglab.pl/smog/

Generally, great stuff, keep ongoing.

Still, the map of the “Industrial Workers of the World” makes me go XD

What do you mean by “The System is (Not) Totalizing”?

They could link to the original report. I guess they mean this one:

I mean - one thing ugly, and the other thing is that this land could be arable or a nature reserve.
