Planet-roaster governments spending less on renewable energy

jeudi 8 juin 2017 à 02:00

Planet-roaster governments are spending less on renewable energy, but new capacity is increasing fast because the construction costs have dropped.

We now produce 24% of electricity using renewable methods, but we need to produce around 100% that way. That means an increase in capacity of 300% of the present total. And since electricity is only a part of our use of fossil fuels, we need to increase capacity even more to replace fossil fuels for trapsport.

That means we have a long way to go, and we don't have a long time to do it.

We need to smash the dominion of the fossil fools before they kill us.

NSA investigated Russian election interference

jeudi 8 juin 2017 à 02:00

A leaked document shows that the NSA investigated apparent Russian attempts to take control of some US voting systems before the 2016 election.

Assuming this document was not intended as a red herring, it means that the NSA is sincere about suspecting Russian sabotage attempts.

The person who leaked the document is Reality Winner, who will probably be imprisoned for 10 years for it.

If it takes the knowledge and careful planning of a Snowden to leak documents to the public and not be imprisoned, we won't have enough whistleblowers, and that turns democracy into an empty shell.

Snowden: prosecution of an alleged source for journalism on a charge of "espionage" is a threat to the free press.

Maybe that's why the troll did it. He is against almost everything that protects Americans from his own power.

I think The Intercept showed bad practices in handling the letter it received. It should have shredded the envelope before reading what was inside.

US persecuting whistleblowers

The US government persecutes even legal whistleblowers, because the laws against retaliation have gaps and are hard to enforce.
