Finnland hatte sich beim Ziel der CO2-Neutralität 2035 darauf verlassen, dass große Mengen von CO2 von Wäldern, Böden und Feuchtgebieten absorbiert werden. Inzwischen ist das Land dort keine Kohlenstoffsenke mehr. Dazu trägt die globale Erhitzung selbst bei, durch die viele Bäume sterben, aber auch die Abholzung des Waldes. Finnland ist ein Beispiel für die Schwächung der ländlichen Kohlenstoffsenken, von der viele Länder betroffen sind. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/15/finland-emissions-target-forests-peatlands-sinks-absorbing-carbon-aoe

2023 haben Böden und Landpflanzen fast kein CO2 absorbiert. Dieser Kollaps der Landsenken vor allem durch Dürren und Waldbrände wurde in diesem Ausmaß kaum vorausgesehen, und es ist nicht klar, ob auf ihn eine Regeneration folgt. Er stellt Klimamodelle ebenso in Frage wie die meisten nationalen Pläne zum Erreichen von CO2-Neutralität, weil sie auf natürlichen Senken an Land beruhen. Es gibt Anzeichen dafür, dass die steigenden Temperaturen inzwischen auch die CO2-Aufnahmefähigkeit der Meere schwächen.

Der kurz vor der COP16 zur Biodiversität veröffentlichte Living Planet Index zeigt das Ausmaß des Biodiversitätsverlusts in den vergangenen 50 Jahren, auch wenn an den dabei angewendeten statistischen Verfahren starke Zweifel bestehen. Die Wirbeltier-Populationen haben nach diesem Index um 73% abgenommen, am stärksten in Lateinamerika und der Karibik. Die wichtigste Ursache ist die veränderte Landnutzung. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/10/collapsing-wildlife-populations-points-no-return-living-planet-report-wwf-zsl-warns

Der Bezos Earth Fund wird bis zum Ende des Jahrzehnts 10 Milliarden Dollar für den Kampf gegen die Klima und die Biodiversitätskrise zur Verfügung stellen. Die Mittel des Fonds geben ihm enormen Einfluss. Viele in der NGOs Szene sehen die Politik des Fonds als Gefährdung für die Unabhängigkeit der von ihm geförderten Organisationen. Der Guardian berichtet anlässlich einer Preisverleihung kritisch vor allem über das Engagement des Fonds für CO2 Kompensationen. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/may/20/jeff-bezos-earth-fund-carbon-offsets-climate-sector-uneasy-aoe

TotalEnergies plant, 9 Milliarden Dollar in ein fossiles Entwicklungsprojekt in Surinam zu investieren. Ab 2028 sollen dort täglich 200.000 Barrel (insgesamt 700 Millionen) gefördert werden. TotalEnergies hat auch Verträge über die Ausbeutung weiterer Lagerstätten in der Nähe. https://www.liberation.fr/environnement/climat/total-se-lance-dans-un-projet-petrolier-a-9-milliards-de-dollars-au-suriname-20230914_3ZQXYGLVHRBZPG2ZQNUC2O2WLY/

Vor einem Untersuchungsausschuss des französischen Senats hat sich der Chef von TotalEnergies, Pouyanné, mit den Standard-Argumenten von Big Oil gegen den Vorwurf gewehrt, die globale Erhitzung anzutreiben: Man befriedige nur die Nachfrage, nach fossilen Energien, senke den CO2-Ausstoß bei der Förderung, investiere auch in erneuerbare Energien und sei unverzichtbar, um die Energiewende zu vollziehen. https://www.liberation.fr/environnement/climat/totalenergies-interroge-au-senat-patrick-pouyanne-defend-ses-investissements-dans-le-fossile-20240429_Z5PVIU62UZDR3N2IKVRVW3UXJA/

Untersuchungen zeigen, dass die COP28 mit dem Emissions Peak für Treibhausgase zusammenfallen könnte.

A mini-review of For You by Patrick Rhone by [[Jacoby]]

Die CO₂-Grenzen für die Flotten von Autofirmen sinken 2025 in der EU um 15%. Volkswagen wird große Schwierigkeiten haben, diese Werte zu erreichen – u.a., weil der Verkauf von Elektroautos gerade massiv eingebrochen ist. Der Hintergrundbericht des Handelsblatts zeigt den Rückstand von VW auf, aber auch z.B. die Bedeutung teurer Elektro-SUVs für die Automobilbranche. https://www.handelsblatt.com/mobilitaet/elektromobilitaet/volkswagen-laeuft-ab-2025-auf-ein-co2-problem-zu-das-sind-die-gruende/100016675.html

Die fünf größten westlichen Ölgesellschaften haben seit der Invasion der gesamten Ukraine vor zwei Jahren insgesamt 281 Milliarden Dollar Gewinn gemacht. Sie zahlen damit Rekord-Dividenden an ihre Investoren und investieren gleichzeitig enorme Summen in die weitere fossile Expansion. Shell fährt sein Programm zur Entwicklung erneuerbarer Energien zurück und hat die Selbstverpflichtung aufgegeben, die Ölproduktion jährlich zu reduzieren.https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/feb/19/worlds-largest-oil-companies-have-made-281bn-profit-since-invasion-of-ukraine

Die ersten 60 Tage von Israels Krieg gegen die Hamas im Gaza-Streifen haben mindestens 281.000 Tonnen CO₂ freigesetzt, das entspricht 150.000 Tonnen Kohle. Die Zahlen stammen aus einer neuartigen, noch nicht peer-reviewten Studie und erfassen nur einen kleinen Teil der Gesamtemissionen. Der Wiederaufbau der zerstörten Gebäude dürfte so viele Emissionen verursachen, wie Neuseeland in einem Jahr erzeugt. Insgesamt ist das Militär für etwa 5,5% der weitweiten Emissionen verantwortlich. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/jan/09/emissions-gaza-israel-hamas-war-climate-change

While gerrymandering isn't brought up explicitly here, the underlying principles are railed against heavily.

Some interesting things applicable to the rise of Donald J. Trump hiding in here.

Interesting to read this in its historical context versus our present context. So much can be read into his words from our current context, while others can extract dramatically different views--particularly by Constitutional originalists.

This is almost hilarious in light of how the U.S. Government has since repeatedly dispossessed Indigenous Americans of their lands for far less than "five shillings."

The definition of "freemen" to Patrick Henry here is ultimate as otherwise all of his words are folly since they don't include exactly those people who are most oppressed within his own country.

Oh the ironies of this as he was talking about a small proportion of the population at the time, a large swath of which (namely enslaved persons with no power) had no arms to protect themselves against him.

His definition of "freemen" was painfully limiting for someone speaking about freedom in such lofty terms.

Patrick Henry railed against the idea that small minorities could hold the country hostage and subject us to "the most oppressive government".

Little did he anticipate that gerrymandering and chicanery of just such a nature would come to pass in American History.

When talking about "disciplined armies", "defense", and "militias" at the Virginia Ratifying Convention in 1788, Patrick Henry explicitly says that the United States is not in danger from European powers:

Some minds are agitated by foreign alarms. Happily for us, there is no real danger from Europe; that country is engaged in more arduous business: from that quarter there is no cause of fear: you may sleep in safety forever for them.

Elie Mystal writes in Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution:

There was an original purpose to the Second Amendment, but it wasn't to keep people safe. It was to preserve white supremacy and slavery. (p36)

He indicates that there are quotes from Patrick Henry and George Mason, governor of Virginia. They needed the ability to raise an armed militia to put down slave revolts and didn't want to rely on the federal government to do it.

Regenerative Ventures

Out of the Trimtab Space Camp course with the Buckminster Fuller Institute in which we were exploring world building with Tony Patrick, Langdon Roberts, Jeremy Lubman, Elsie Iwase, and I gathered to think about how we could become involved in regenerative ventures. This was our initiative, in which we met weekly to think about how we manifest who we are as a more beautiful world our hearts know is possible. The thought was that architecture grows out of values, principles, and intention.

FROM WIKINEWS: [Patrick Kluivert ontkent onderdak te hebben geboden aan Durham Naar navigatie springenJump to search Klik hier om zelf een nieuwsartikel te schrijven. 21 maart 2017<br> Voetballer Patrick Kluivert ontkent stellig de geruchten dat hij in Barcelona onderdak zou hebben geboden aan Octave Durham ("Okkie"), de man die in 2002 twee schilderijen uit het Van Gogh Museum ontvreemdde en op dat moment op de vlucht was. Durham zelf is met dit opmerkelijke verhaal gekomen, dat vanavond in een speciale aflevering van Brandpunt wordt uitgezonden. De Brandpunt-documentaire is gemaakt door misdaadjournalist Vincent Verweij.

“Een vriend van mijn was Patrick Kluivert – een gabber uit de buurt. Ik kwam Patrick tegen in Barcelona. Ik zei dat ik door de politie gezocht werd, maar ik zei niet dat het voor die Van Goghs was. En toen zei hij: ‘Waarom zit je de hele tijd in een hotel? Waarom blijf je niet bij mijn thuis?’ Ik zei: ‘Als ze mij bij jou pakken, kom je in alle kranten van de wereld’. Hij zei: ‘Dat kom ik toch al.’ (Citaat van Durham uit de documentaire)

Kluivert noemt het hele verhaal pure onzin, en overweegt Durham aan te klagen wegens smaad en laster."

GREAT!!!! picasso detail

notice these sentences are not description

Do you mean this word? What is "index" usually?

Yep... my favorite part...

I appreciate your humor, Patrick!

What might Ball et al say about how the multimodality of this article works? Just to "draw attention"? Can you comment on the specific arrangement (etc.) of the modes as they work in the article?

Yes... I talked in class about one of my philosophical differences with Ball/Arola/Shephard in that they focus on multimodality as it pertains to "communication"... I focus on it as it pertains to "meaning making"... What do you think the difference is and how does this difference affect your thinking about this incident?

What do you mean by this? And what are the implications of the incident being labeled "a failure in communication"?

Yes, but... Not really, I think. Is Haltman concerned with how a thing is used and purposed for? Or is he more interested in how the details of a thing clue us into the kind of culture that made it?

Clearly the frame workers of the college put considerable weight upon the learning of foreign languages. I admire the kind of insight that the writers had when nothing that the German language lead to considerable advances in sciences. During the time in which this was written, it was not often considered as to how language changes the way you think. There are many distinctions that come from speaking a different language, some obvious, many very subtle and elusive. An example of this would be the fact that German speakers often focus on goal oriented details when constructing a sentence because the nature of their verbs are not as versatile as in English. Studies have shown that Germans can predict goal oriented behavior better when viewing an action, while English speakers focus more solely on the actions themselves. This is a subtle distinction, but it evidences that the differences exist, and these differences can culminate to big implications in terms of ways of thinking. To bring this full circle, UVA requires me to take a foreign language; but UVA has also come to the point in which they offer classes that study specifically Language and Thought. This may not have been in the original plan, but has become an offshoot based upon the broad curriculum that was originally setup for the school to branch off of.

The foresight of the charterers is pretty incredible to read through. This concept of foresight really came to a head during the enlightenment period. We see it in the exhaustive efforts for creating a US constitution (or a US in general), and this example shows the continuation of this mindset; it might be worthy to note that a founder had considerable provision over the creation of this school. Before contrasting this mindset of foresight with modern mindsets, it's important to note that this concept was applied because of the context of the situation: the beginning of a nation, or the beginning of a university. This makes it obvious as to why we see multiple examples of foresight being explicitly mentioned. At the same time, just because the nation is not still in its toddler phase, does not mean we should so easily become accustomed to thinking with limits to only our lives and none thereafter. It seems apparent that the concept of foresight has steadily fallen out of the norm with parts of society that are in power positions. As aforementioned, the context of our current state clearly shows why it would decrease from the times in which our nation was beginning; but this does not make the fall any more acceptable. With the advent of newer technology and quicker forms of gratification, it seems as though there has been a rise in short-term goals, solutions, and mindsets. Of course, these are broad generalizations; nevertheless, I don't hear or see much foresight in a lot of society today as refreshing as what we see in the works of our nation's- and our university's- founders.

We see here the great emphasis on understanding languages. The idea of teaching ancient languages has nearly plummeted out of schools across America, with my high school here in Virginia eliminating the Latin department. During the time of UVA's chartering, it was clear that the studies of these ancient languages was imperative to a comprehensive education by their standards. I have found very little usage of my modern foreign language education and currently consider it a complete failure of the education system unless one were to specialize in their respective language (although the charter does maintain that other languages than the ancient will be taught, my point is that the emphasis on ancient language has diminished heavily). I see Latin and Greek, on the other hand, as relatively useful for multiple facets of education. This part of the charter provides a clear contrast in education motives between historical and modern expectations.
