The G7 group of industrialized countries (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, UK, US), has reached a agreement to phase out coal-fired power plants by the mid-2030s, during their meeting in Turin.

Apparently, the agreement will include leeway in the planned timeline to include the option of a date consistent with keeping a limit of 1.5C temperature rise within reach, in line with countries net zero pathways.

It's very clear how desperate green tech advocates are to paint the current developments as a win for the climate. But by doing so they only reinforce the status quo.

Water scarcity is threatening the livelihoods and survival of small-scale farmers the world over. However there are some very effective solutions available.

Bread, biscuit and beer prices could rise due to wet weather

The price of bread, biscuits and beer could be at risk of rising as a result of months of wet in the UK, a report has suggested.

Harvests of crops including wheat, barley and oats may fall by more than 17% this year compared to 2023.

The Energy & Intelligence Unit (ECIU), which produced the analysis, said that if there is a shortfall in UK crops, food producers may have to import more from overseas, potentially increasing costs.

New Nuclear Energy: Assessing the National Security Risks

The climate crisis has renewed interest in nuclear energy as a way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In 2023, the United States and 21 other countries pledged to triple nuclear energy by 2050. Lost in the noise about meeting net
