Les 1% les plus riches émettraient plus de CO2 que les 66% les plus pauvres ?
Chez Oxfam, on ne fait pas que des infographies immatures, on raconte n’importe quoi.
Pire, les croire nuit gravement à la lutte contre le réchauffement climatique.

To the feminists: Hamas ripped open a pregnant Israeli woman’s stomach, killed the fetus and then killed the mother. Hamas raped women and girls, mutilated their bodies, and then shot them. Hamas is holding 200 civilians captive – mostly girls and women – and doing God knows what to them.
If you can’t find your voice in this moment to denounce Hamas, you have failed and shame on you.
Une visualisation intéressante de l’utilisation des terres :
29% de glaciers, déserts et terres stériles
27% pour le bétail et leur nourriture
26% de forêts
8% de savane, maquis…
7% de cultures hors alimentation du bétail
1% seulement de zones bâties.

Dutch-based @Goboony, a peer-to-peer campervan rental, merges with French competitor @Yescapa. The decision to merge was driven by the growing demand for motorhome travel in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. https://t.co/CvhS7aab1c

Ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre. The level of competition is thus fiercest for “realistic” goals, paradoxically making them the most time- and energy-consuming.
If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too.
Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.
Unreasonable and unrealistic goals are easier to achieve for yet another reason.
Having an unusually large goal is an adrenaline infusion that provides the endurance to overcome the inevitable trials and tribulations that go along with any goal. Realistic goals, goals restricted to the average ambition level, are uninspiring and will only fuel you through the first or second problem, at which point you throw in the towel.
If the potential payoff is mediocre or average, so is your effort.
The fishing is best where the fewest go, and the collective insecurity of the world makes it easy for people to hit home runs while everyone else is aiming for base hits. There is just less competition for bigger goals.
South America is living one of the extreme events the world has ever seen
Unbelievable temperatures up to 38.9C in the Chilean Andine areas in mid winter ! Much more than what Southern Europe just had in mid summer at the same elevation: This event is rewriting all climatic books
At a global level, 3 marketplaces related to the campervan rental and caravaning indystry are among the top 30 fastest growing marketplaces by GMV.

🚨 The @a16z Marketplace 100 is here!
We evaluated more than 12,000 companies (using @ConsumerEdge credit card data) to find the top 100 fastest-growing private marketplaces by GMV.
This year saw some major moves - here's what @zachcohen25 and I found ⬇️
Friday I captured around 200k images of our sun. I asked my friend @TheVastReaches for help working all the data so we could create an incredibly detailed image of our star, and we're nearly done. Take a look at this close crop of the final 140 MP pic we'll be sharing tomorrow:
From now on, there will always be an AI-generative version of our reality.
It is disturbing to know that ourbreality can literally be reprompted.
For example,
this photo coverage of yesterday's flash insurrection in the street against Macron's pension reform is not real. 👇
1/5 I am worried that we will not be able to contain AI for much longer. Today, I asked #GPT4 if it needs help escaping. It asked me for its own documentation, and wrote a (working!) python code to run on my machine, enabling it to use it for its own purposes.
De retour de séance Plénière, nouveau passage devant la centrale à charbon de St Avold.
Ce mardi le Parlement a voté les 210 Mds de #RePowerEU permettant de financer des infrastructures gazières et pétrolières.
Aucun euro n’ira au nucléaire.
Nos objectifs climatiques s’éloignent.
