*Iran and the UN inspector have reached an agreement on the imminent reinstallation of cameras at the Karaj nuclear facility, a move that is seen as indispensable to keeping alive the broader nuclear talks and the lifting of US sanctions on Tehran.*
I think Iran has decided to get serious about making an agreement rather than trying to make the US desperate for an agreement.
Mississippi's Republicans blocked federal funds to expand Medicaid on principle. The principle being that poor people and blacks should suffer. If "god" had wanted them not to suffer, he would have made them not get sick.
France has restricted travel from the UK because of the spread of Omicron there.
It's not a punishment, it's self-protection.
Meanwhile, by next week at the latest the UK may as well end its ban on travelers from some African countries. Travel from those places will not be a significant cause of more cases of Omicron in the UK, not compared with transmission within the UK.
There are too many cattle in the Netherlands, and the pollution they generate is damaging waterways. The government has a plan to drastically decrease the number of cattle.
The cattle also produce methane, which is a bigger problem than manure because it is a global problem.
The world is considering using ammonia as fuel, instead of petroleum. The efficient way to transport hydrogen fuel is to convert it to ammonia.
Instead of reducing cattle to avoid ammonia pollution, perhaps new systems for collecting cows' manure and urine can turn that waste into a resource.
If it is necessary to reduce the amount of cattle farming in the Netherlands, the state should not bow down to businesses by begging and paying them to comply with laws. At least, not for farms that are corporations. That would be putting businesses above the public -- plutocracy, in other words.
Instead, the state should tax farms based on how much pollution they generate.
