UK courts are increasingly willing to reject proposed "carbon offsets" whose validity is suspect.

Global heating is making Britain hotter and dryer.

Global heating will cause many problems around the world. Either each part of the world can adapt to too little water or too much water, and too much or too little of many other things that global heating will cause, and then do some more of each in a decade or two, or the world can get serious about curbing global heating.

Swedish journalist Joakim Medin visited Turkey and was arrested, accused (and later convicted) of insulting President Erdoğan at a protest in Sweden. He was also accused of terrorism, but it seems those charges were dropped, because he was allowed to leave Turkey.

If anyone can tell me what concrete act constituted the alleged terrorism, I would be grateful, especially if that comes with a URL that I can link to about that.

The UK minister for repression is absolutely determined to label the organization Palestine Action as "terrorist" and ban it on account of a protest where its members sprayed red paint on warplanes in a military base.

If protesters can get access to them to spray paint, someone with violent and hostile aims could get access too. The Royal Air Force should be grateful that its weak security was discovered and reported in this way, and the British government should cease its repression of people protesting against support for Israel's war crimes.

The group's lawyers claim that the proposed ban would be illegal. I wonder whether a court would have a chance to judge whether the ban of the organization is lawful. Or would punishment of its members be automatic, with no consideration of whether the group deserves the name of "terrorist"?
