<b>Can Focusing On Climate Change Help Win Elections?</b><br>
By Maggie Koerth<br>
OCT. 17, 2022
<p>“Our generation grew up watching as the climate crisis got worse
and worse and politicians did nothing.” That might sound like a
quote from teen climate activist Greta Thunberg, but it’s actually
the opening line for a new series of political ads appearing in
multiple states in the lead-up to the 2022 midterms — ads that the
advocacy groups Climate Power Action and the League of
Conservation Voters are hoping will tip the scales towards
climate-focused Democrats.</p>

[ analyzing activism ] <br>
<b>The Extent of the Youth's Climate Fear</b><br>
CLIMATE CHANGE<br>
by Katharina Buchholz,<br>
Oct 17, 2022<br>
As intended, a climate change protest by two young activists from
the group Just Stop Oil has grabbed attention globally. The pair
emptied cans of tomato soup onto one of the famous Sunflowers
paintings by Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh Friday at the National
Gallery in London before gluing their hands to the adjacent wall.
The stunt is one of several in which young activists have used glue
to attach themselves to famous painting all over Europe, but it is
the first one to also use something thrown at the painting.
According to The New York Times, shocked onlookers can be heard in a
recording of the scene. In a speech, the activists outlined the
objective of the protest that is meant to pit outrage over threats
to the conservation of art against that over threats to
environmental conservation. The picture, which features a protective
glaze, remained unharmed according to the gallery.<br>
<br>
Apart from showcasing that a singular attack on a famous painting is
in fact causing more of an outcry than most climate change
reporting, the event also serves as another example of how young
people are increasingly at the forefront of climate change activism.
Swiftly progressing climate change has started to be seen as an
existential threat for younger generations, as the time window to
limit global warming to 2° Celsius is rapidly closing.<br>
<br>
A landmark study published in The Lancet last year shows to what
extent climate fear has taken hold in younger generations. Among the
10,000 16–25-year-olds surveyed in ten countries, almost 70 percent
said they were either extremely worried or very worried about
climate change. This number was even higher on average in developing
countries in the global South that are expected to bear the brunt to
climate change-related destruction. In the Philippines, a high of 84
percent of youths were extremely or very worried, followed by 78
percent in India and 77 percent in Brazil. In Nigeria, 51 percent of
young people worried a great deal, closer to the result in the UK or
Australia. Heightened worry was lowest in the U.S. out of the ten
countries at just 46 percent – still affecting almost half of those
between the ages of 16 and 25.<br>

[ It just APPEARS to be motionless. This innovation needs quick
deployment ]<br>
<b>This groundbreaking motionless wind turbine is 50% more efficient
than regular turbines</b><br>
They can generate renewable energy up to 100 percent.<br>
Nergis Firtina Oct 13, 2022<br>
There is plenty of room for existing solar and utility
infrastructure on a building's roof, thanks to the Aeromine system's
modest footprint. It gives owners of commercial properties a useful
new weapon in their pursuit of energy independence in the face of
rising energy costs and demand for amenities like electric vehicle
charging stations.<br>
<br>
BASF Corporation, which is evaluating the Aeromine system at its
manufacturing site in Wyandotte, MI, is one of the companies testing
the new technology.<br>
<br>
"Creating a better way to harvest the power of wind"<br>
Aeromine Technologies explains itself as "understanding the untapped
potential of wind energy and limitations of existing rooftop energy
options to capture it, Aeromine’s founders envisioned a better
solution that would be much more productive.<br>
<br>
The innovation represents a significant step up over earlier
dispersed wind turbines, which are inadequate for most rooftop
installations. The creators of Aeromine have developed a
significantly more efficient method to exploit even mild wind to
generate electricity for sizable, flat rooftop structures like
warehouses, data centers, office buildings, and apartment buildings.<br>

<i>[ Have we noticed that most of the insects are gone? Video from
DW documentary 1:25:22 ]</i><br>
<b>How chemical companies destroy ecosystems | DW Documentary</b><br>
Oct 15, 2022 Today’s industrial agriculture relies on insecticides.
These chemicals cause massive damage to the environment. Worldwide,
the most common insecticides are neonicotinoids. Deployed to destroy
pests, they also harm human health.<br>
<br>
Thirty years ago, in the summertime, anybody driving a long distance
would have to stop every two hours or so to clear their windshield
of insects. Today, a driver can cross the whole of Europe without
using the windshield wiper even once. That’s because the total
biomass of flying insects has declined by about 75% since the 1990s.
The culprit? The massive use of neonicotinoids, so-called "systemic"
insecticides that spread throughout plant cells. They look like
colorful candy and seem harmless, but they have a highly toxic
effect. <br>
<br>
As more and more scientific studies warn of the catastrophic
consequences of the use of these neurotoxins, multinational chemical
companies are doing everything they can to cover up the causal link
between their products and mass insect death. They fund dubious
studies, put pressure on scientists and research institutions, lobby
regulatory authorities intensively, and work hard to prevent or
circumvent restrictions and bans. <br>
<br>
Meanwhile, insect death is progressing at an unprecedented rate. And
because insects play a central role in food chains, both as
pollinators and as food for larger animals, their decimation is
affecting entire ecosystems. Fish and birds are running out of food,
which increases their own mortality rates. What’s more, recent
studies show that the chemicals also impact human health.<br>
