EU Member States decided on Wednesday—while citizens were literally dropping dead from extreme heat—that “green finance” should include companies engaged in fossil fuel expansion (eg new oil drilling). The banality of evil. https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-countries-oil-exploration-green-investment/
Big fail from EU. Frontex should push back heat at the border.
They’ve been sitting on their hands about climate change for 40 years, I doubt that another heatwave will change much.
Just wait til it rains for more than a day, everthing about the heatwave will be forgotten immediately and people will complain that it’s too cold and wet.
It’s okay, we all have USB-C chargers now. /s
I have a ton of devices that have USB-c plugs but don’t work with USB-c chargers at all. They only work with USB-c to USB-A cables and USB-A chargers.
Shit’s stupid.
Georgia is a not an EU member. Ukraine and Moldova too. Why is it presented as such in the picture?
It doesn’t make sense. But they should be in the EU.
Definitely not. None of the countries currently having candidate status belong into the EU. They are all economically weak countries which would end up getting more money out of the EU than they would pay into it. The finances of the EU are already strained, we can’t afford giving out even more money.
obviously in a euro-nationalist board the question of climate catastrophe ends up on a discussion where to expand the empire next.
Empire 🙄
isn’t it?
No. It’s a dysfunctional union, where everyone needs to play games because of local politics. But everyone wants to join, because it’s still better than being anywhere else. So the expansions are not only voluntarily, but people almost beg to get in. Central power is symbolic.
Iit’s not empireish in any way.
yeah, everyone like the brits… and remember the various referendums that were held, iirc they were never near 70%.
reg. yr definition of empire: we’re not in that simple galaxy far far away
