Look what happens to tree regeneration when herbivores are absent or properly managed. This splendid photo inadvertently shows a sad-looking mainland background, bereft of trees. The island, in stark contrast, looks alive and thriving.

This is the first time I’ve watched the darts final since 1990. It’s absolutely outstanding! The kids are all completely riveted by it too. 🎯💯😊

It would be absolutely fascinating to see a comparison/study of media coverage between Reform UK (0 MPs, 11 councillors) and The Green Party (1 MP, over 700 councillors, 3 London Assembly members, 7 MSPs).

This is a disgrace. This sort of 'debate' is killing the planet. This 'journalism' is culpable in advancing climate deniers. It toadies to wealth and power- who have much to lose and who will always refuse to change.

As a Jew, I have become increasingly worried that the charge of antisemitism is being levelled to silence legitimate and important debate. Antisemitism is on the rise, but there is also a rise in the unscrupulous use of the term to silence reasonable questions about the Israeli…

An incredibly interesting passage from Branko Milanovic on income distribution under Yugoslavian worker self management. Workers were the residual income claimants of firm profits, after a 'capital user charge' was taken by the state. Because of this, identical workers would often1/3
