An image (with pollution) is worth a thousand words: Leicester then and now

-
Image
   I am not sure that global warming is caused by pollution. (This is only 99.9% sure; there is still room for evidence.) But images like this one (Leicester 1950) think that it shouldn't give way to a discussion we need to behave responsibly, protect the environment, reduce pollution. Of course, developed States have a greater responsibility than the rest of the world, and the United States above all. But I remember a short visit to a Central European country many years ago, when I hit a truly apocalyptic landscape. The image of Leicester would have seemed brilliant in addition to the red fog there. Video: Residential districts of Leicester today, built on former industrial zones

Huge demonstrations in several European countries

-
Image
 Democracy is in danger in many European countries. The rise of the extreme right, subsidized, according to many indications, by the Russian Federation, endangers most states in the region. Some of these have already been victims of "hostile takeovers", and the population is fighting in the streets for the return to democracy and the European path, both in European Union member countries and in European Union candidate countries. The moment is critical for the preservation of democracy and for the imposition of a climate of peace, in which international aggression, such as that of Russia in Ukraine, should be condemned and stopped. The population of all countries of the world (and first of all the people of all European countries, who are the main target of Russian propaganda) must take a stand.  Indeed, in all these countries there are serious and serious problems, and the old political class has often disappointed in the efficient management of economic problems and especia...

 23.4 million people worldwide hold investments of at least one million dollars. It is an increase of 2.6% in 2024 and it has reached the highest level since the emergence of the World Wealth Report (since 1997). The world wealth exploded in 2024, in the top being the US, Japan, Germany and China. According to Forbes, there are 3 thousand billionaires in the world. with a total fortune of $16 trillion. I ask: is there or are there no links to the rise of far-right discourse worldwide? Where do the billionaires live? Most billionaires, 119 persons, live in New York. The cities of London, Mumbai, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Moscow, New Delhi and San Francisco each have more than 50 billionaires among residents. Other cities entering the top are Bangkok, Taipei, Paris, Hangzhou, Guangzhou (both in China), Jakarta, Sao Paulo, Los Angeles, Seoul, Tokyo, Bengaluru (India), Dallas and Palm Beach.

A 2 thousand year old building and still functional

-
Image
  A building in Istanbul is so old that it has captured all the empires that have mastered this city. It's not just a simple — construction it's a veritable time capsule where history has laid layer upon layer over centuries. From Rome at present, in one wall At the base of the building you can see elements typical of the Roman Empire: thick stone walls and massive columns, reminiscent of the era when the city was called Byzantion and was part of the vast empire of Rome. Byzantine marks over the Roman ruins Immediately above it rises structures with elegant arches and specific details of Byzantine architecture. These elements were added in the period when the city became Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire and one of the most important centers of the medieval Christian world. New shape during Otoman Empire On the next level, masonry and style become more functional, reflecting the Ottoman period, when the city was conquered by the Turks in 1453 and transformed i...

Mt. Etna - volcanic eruption under the snow

-
Image
  Mount Etna is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and is in an almost constant state of activity. It has frequent eruptions, with both summit and flank eruptions occurring regularly. Here's a breakdown of the eruption frequency: Summit eruptions: These involve activity at the volcano's summit craters and can include Strombolian explosions, lava fountains, and ash emissions. Summit eruptions have been very frequent in recent years, with multiple events occurring each year. Flank eruptions: These occur when lava erupts from vents on the sides of the volcano. Flank eruptions are less frequent than summit eruptions but can be more significant, producing lava flows that can travel considerable distances. Here are some key points about Etna's eruption frequency: Highly active volcano: Etna is considered one of the most active volcanoes on Earth, with a long history of frequent eruptions. Summit vs. flank eruptions: Summit eruptions are more common, while flan...
