How come roses are possible to grow in Wij gardens, quite a bit up north in Sweden? The plantation is constructed as a heat-retaining bowl surrounded by a thick, deep steel border, which evens out the climate. More in Swedish at rosenholm.se?page_id=7653.

The fossil fuel industry needs to be ended, destroyed, urgently. It, and the complicit, billionaire-controlled media are destroying the habitat vital for human survival.

The gas station country needs gas. ㅤ Russia spent decades calling itself an energy superpower. Now it is looking for fuel like it forgot to fill up before invading a country. ㅤ From “we power the world” to “does anyone have a spare canister?” Support link is in our Bio.

Like a first century McDonald's is this Roman street food place in Herculaneum outside Naples. Herculaneum was more pleasant than the rougher Pompeii. More intellectual, with rather fair opportunities for slaves to mind their own business and regain freedom #photography #Herculaneum #Italy

😳 Trump just flubbed his way through his meeting with Zelenskyy, at various points referring to the "Islamic Republic of Japan," repeatedly calling Zelenskyy "President Putin," and railing against the "JCPOC" Here's the blooper reel:

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

Polaroid picture of unknown people at a London pub, 1987 or 1988, likely Coach & Horses om Old Compton Street. Well, think about it, where are they and what are they doing nowadays (if still alive). I always think like that when I look att my old photos. #streetphotography #London #polaroid.

An editorial in Sweden’s leading newspaper, Dagens Nyheter, on the absurdity of Sweden having Europe’s cheapest petrol but high taxes on clean electricity. This is what happens when the far right takes power. Warning to all other European democracies! www.dn.se/ledare/borde...

It's all blue. Picture from November 20, 2023 from a street in one of my favorite cities, Naples. A life-enhancing place; lots of people, mighty messy, eventful, kind of Manhattan a few decades ago in a smaller scale. #Italy #Naples #Blue #photography

Urban areas are hotter than forests. EU’s Copernicus satellites recorded a difference of about 23°C on land surfaces in the most affected areas of Europe during last week’s heatwave. We’re committed to planting 3 billion trees by 2030 and promoting sustainable living through the European Bauhaus.

ZELENSKYY: Truth is, despite having fewer means and fewer resources, Ukrainians have achieved more tangible and impressive results. And, above all, we have every right to be proud of ourselves, because we are defending what is ours. The whole world respects Ukrainians for that.

No longer a meritocracy. No longer the land of the free. Not a happy anniversary.
