Fungi in the soil that connect plants sequester lots of carbon in soil, but modern agriculture and global heating are destroying them.

An appeals court upheld California's law that prohibits large magazines.

I worry that the Supreme Court will reject it.

The US doesn't try its best to investigate civilian casualties from its air raids, nor to avoid them.

Putin is making bellicose demands, threatening to start a war if the west does not obey.

Specifically, he threatened to attack if western countries send troops to Ukraine, or even sell Ukraine antiaircraft missiles that could help resist the threatened Russian attack. This while Russian troops and proxies remain in Ukraine.

Rather than be intimidated, the west should do exactly what was right to do last week: give Ukraine weapons to help it mount a better defense but don't threaten Russia, point out that this is no threat, and expect Putin to do the sensible thing.

Meanwhile, European allies must recognize that approving the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline would be surrendering to Putin and to global heating at the same time.

Why Extinction Rebellion protested by blocking Amazon distribution centers. It cites reasons that are only indirectly related to global heating.

I agree with those reasons, and they are among the reasons I urge people to boycott Amazon. But I tend to think that Extinction Rebellion should keep a sharp focus on climate defense, and avoid blurring the focus by bringing in tangential issues of any kind.
