Global Energy

Debates on energy policy, environmental regulation, and global warming start with the largely unquestioned assumption that the present heat and power system is economically optimal.

In 2019, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch became an afterthought following Thornberg's whining regarding the environment in conjunction with millions of Westerners who are unmotivated to use science and knowledge to resolve the problems surrounding climate change. COVID-19 hit, and the climate change problems of the world were paused and not discussed regularly in the media. Then, I saw a random article on CNN in 2023 ...

Leí por primera vez sobre el Proyecto de Limpieza del Océano 2018 de Slat y me impresionó porque es un intento de hacer del mundo un lugar mejor preocupándose por el medio ambiente y no por las ganancias. En 2019, la Gran Mancha de Basura del Pacífico pasó a ser una ocurrencia tardía tras las quejas de Thornberg sobre el medio ambiente junto con millones de occidentales que no están motivados para utilizar la ciencia y el conocimiento para resolver los problemas relacionados con el cambio climático. Llegó la COVID-19 y los problemas del cambio climático en el mundo quedaron en ...

Wenn der Schlaf jedoch keine Erholung mehr bringt, erfahren wir ein anderes Müdesein. Eines, das wir als krank machend empfinden und dessen Auslöser wir oft nicht identifizieren können. Dr. med. Anne Fleck hat die heimlichen Ursachen für andauernde Müdigkeit unter die Lupe genommen: Unentdeckte Infektionen, übersehene Stoffwechselstörungen, Nahrungsmittelintoleranzen, kranke Zellen oder Umwelttoxine können an unserer Leistungsfähigkeit zehren.
