  • It's happened or happening in Cameroon as well ( link ) by Sinosteel, part of the same company China Baowu Steel Group Corp., Ltd.

    "Cameroon Locals Seek Justice amid Chinese Iron Mining Expansion"

    (..) serious environmental risks, including potential contamination of the Lobé and Likodo rivers, and Manyange na Elombo Campo Marine Park. Early signs of water quality deterioration were observed even before mining operations began(..) The project threatens tropical forests, wetlands, and endemic species in Campo Maan National Park and Manyangué na Elombo Campo Marine Park(..)

    +FYI: Population Cameroon 31M.

  • Thanks to all the thousand of new (US) volunteers that are helping Ukraine!

    Honour given where honour is due (ed)

  • It's remarkable to say the least, when you consider that this meeting took place in Canada -which Trump is threatening to Annex and is Tariffing-, and just like one week after USA refused to sign a prior statement supporting Ukraine's souverignity against Russia.

    You just can't make this shit up. (ed)

  • And don't forget he's an oligarch, and more recently, also a supporting populist & right-winged ideologist.

    "Burn the Books. we have all you need online!" /s

  • lithium mining and refining appear less awful than it actually is.

    So do I undertand you correctly it's just an "eventuality option simulation" to lower the environmental footprint?

    Like for example the listed WLTP* Kw/h / fuel consumption of cars in perfect (lab)conditions which never exist?

  • that's $2 billion in sales that Lockheed Martin doesn't get

    And that's just the beginning.

  • (..) Russia has made similar demands of the U.S. over the last two decades – demands that would limit the West’s ability to build a stronger military presence in Europe and potentially allow Putin to expand his influence in the continent.

    "There’s no sign that the Russians are willing to make any concessions,” said Angela Stent, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who was the top U.S. intelligence analyst for Russia and Eurasia. “The demands haven’t changed at all. I think they are not really interested in peace or a meaningful ceasefire.”

  • Sorry, wrong community. Better use " no stupid question " or "politics" .

  • certainly not true for the ICC.

    Indeed.

    USA, China, Russian Federation and Israel for example, are not (signatory) members of the ICC. If anything, they are allergic towards it. Also the previous/current? Prosecutor ( Kahn , some diehard Lawyer), was even often threatened, which I found crazy. So there is alot of pressure on the Prosecutor's Office.

    Ed: Mb RF, not USSR ofc.

  • Nah, it's just the ghost in the machine.

    Tip: always add "True" string to the algorithm/s

  • I know that I don't know.

  • Who aRe you?

    (Γνῶθι σεαυτόν, gnōthi seauton)

    It's like the famous question: " If a tree falls in the forrest, but you are not around, does the falling tree still makes a sound?

    A fundamental question now in quantum theories, that they still can't answer afaik

  • Why don't they just move ahead with the plan regardless of America?

    It's in the article. G7 is about consensus. Doesn't mean other parties won't have their own plans.

  • The G7 has been compromised.

    Unfortunately, that's probably true for the whole world order.

    I want to hope that the new one will be better, but oftentimes history tends to disagree with that notion. Yet I'll remain fighting for a better tomorrow.
