Carbon emissions are now growing faster than before the pandemic
>Instead of a “green recovery”, global greenhouse gas emissions are rising much faster now than they did in the decade preceding the global pandemic. Emissions rose 1.3 per cent to 57.1 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2023. That is a far faster annual rate of growth than during the decade 2010-2019, when emissions grew on average 0.8 per cent per year
>All sources of greenhouse gas emissions except land use are rising,
----
Not surprising I guess, just open the flight radar web page, or glance out the window at the endless cars , hear endless dogs barking (large meat eating pets). We haven't changed how we act, which would typically lead to changing how we vote.
Nearly everywhere there has been minor gains by Greens they are in retreat rather the massive surge needed to change policy. We concentrate on stupid shit like ecars rather then the changes needed.

the “engine issue” was a percussive failure that generated a very loud, explosive “bang” followed by airframe vibration that lasted almost until the aircraft was back on the ground
Delta Air Lines Boeing 737-900ER Forced To Return To Sacramento After Suffering Engine Issues
The aircraft landed without incident, and no one aboard was injured.Trevin Christian Casinader (Simple Flying)
The high-banked turn immediately after the explosion-like sound, completed while the entire plane was rattling and shaking, was intense.
I calmed down quite a bit once we were aimed back at the airfield, since we relatively high already and another engine failure would leave time for a landing

If someone is constantly on their phone while doing something, it's a sure sign that they don't want to be doing that something. Some common examples:
- Driving
- Watching the kids
- Walking the dog
- Stuck with a bad date

I'd ask how they even got on the Burke-Gilman trail, but I recall a few spots where it was possible back in my days when I used to ride it on my bicycle.
I admit, if I saw a car on it, I'd be furious. That was my safe space.
