There are no real climate leaders yet – who will step up at Cop26? | Greta Thunberg | The Guardian

Because science doesn’t lie. The facts are crystal clear, but we just refuse to accept them. We refuse to acknowledge that we now have to choose between saving the living planet or saving our unsustainable way of life. Because we want both. We demand both.

But the undeniable truth is that we have left it too late for that. And no matter how uncomfortable that reality may seem, this is exactly what our leaders have chosen for us with their decades of inaction. Their decades of blah, blah, blah.

Science doesn’t lie. If we are to stay below the targets set in the 2015 Paris agreement – and thereby minimise the risks of setting off irreversible chain reactions beyond human control – we need immediate, drastic, annual emission reductions unlike anything the world has ever seen. And since we don’t have the technological solutions which alone will do anything close to that in the foreseeable future, it means we have to make fundamental changes to our society.

We are currently on track for at least a 2.7C hotter world by the end of the century – and that’s only if countries meet all the pledges that they have made. Currently they are nowhere near doing that. We are “seemingly light years away from reaching our climate action targets”, to once again quote Guterres.

HAS GAIA GOT ALZHEIMER’S? ARE WE IT? #humanity #adaptation #climatecatastrophe — Lordan’s Lit

Barbara Crane Navarro

Life began on Earth about 3.4 billion years ago. That’s older than we can really take in. We can describe this length of time, we can write it out & tote it up, but we can’t really comprehend it. This is one of the signs of the mismatch between individual human consciousness and the vast[…]

Thoughtful Thursdays, Stayed on Freedom’s Call page 34, and Coffee Coops?

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

It is crucial that we each help our society to become more fully inclusive for all of us today, and to come and work together, for all of us, right?

I believe that attention to shared histories, as in DC, may provide part of an answer. I started a note about that, a few years ago, in my book Stayed on Freedom’s Call:

” … Chapter 5: Current Efforts In DC Black-Jewish Community Cooperation

Tifereth Israel Neighborhood Tutoring, EBL Walk

“TI Sells Coffee | Ugandan Jewish, Christian, Muslim Cooperative” -Tifereth Israel Social Action Committee website

Tifereth Israel congregation (TI) continues to be known for its strong commitment to social justice and to working with the Shepherd Park community. TI, which has perhaps the largest number of multiracial Jewish members of any area synagogue apart from Temple Beth Emet, also hosts a number of Black church groups in the building…

Mudança

Vivaldi translation of title: Change

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Se você deseja obter resultados diferentes, mude. Caso contrário, além de não resolver o que precisa, você ainda vai chorar nas ” janelas dos outros ” depois de descobrir que a sua inundou.

Nada pode contráriar mais o ser humano do que viver entre conflitos. Ele acostuma com esse tipo de situação. Muitas pessoas nutrem inclusive, uma falsa crença de ” milagres acontecem “. Gente, isso é um pensamento ingênuo. Só para você ter uma ideia, nem os santos viraram santos, se como pessoas, não fossem capazes de fazer as suas boas ações. Nós precisamos ser mais racionais, temos que dirimir imagens mentais de ternura sobre o que precisa sr mudado, em pensamentos lúcidos, racionais, compreendem? Claro, algumas situações sim, se diz que ” coisas” acontecem por alguma razão que desconhecemos, os cosmos agem a nosso favor. Porém, na maior parte do tempo, as nossas crenças precisam ser lapidadas, a…

Trofie in crema di peperoni e mandorle

InTheNameOfSeitan

I peperoni… sgargianti nelle loro colorazioni, presenti sulle nostre tavole soprattutto nel periodo estivo, hanno un importante valore nutrizionale.  Sono noti come remineralizzanti, contenenti magnesio e potassio sia che li si voglia consumare crudi oppure cotti. Sapevate che in quanto a contenuto di vitamina Csurclassano di gran lunga agrumi e fragole?

Ovviamente la cottura va ad incidere negativamente sul loro contenuto di vitamina C ma sotto queste vesti di primo piatto restano comunque un’ottima fonte di betacarotene e sali minerali, oltre che di fibre.

Vediamo come procedere…

Ingredienti (per 2 persone):

180gr di trofieinthenameofseitan-150x150

3 peperoni di media grandezza

1 spicchio d’aglio (privato dell’anima)

1 patata lessa

Olio evo

Vino bianco

Semi di lino

1 manciata di mandorle non pelate

Prezzemolo

Sale

Procuriamoci dei peperoni freschissimi e dopo averli accuratamente lavati

Salmonella Outbreak Linked to Onions Sickens More Than 650 – The New York Times

The onions may have stickers or packaging indicating the brand (ProSource Inc.) and the country, Mexico, where they were grown.

The C.D.C. also urged consumers to throw away any whole red, white or yellow onions they have at home that do not have a sticker or packaging indicating where they are from.

Consumers and businesses should also wash and sanitize any surfaces that may have been in contact with onions imported from Chihuahua and distributed by ProSource, the C.D.C. said.

Salmonella, a type of bacteria, causes about 1.35 million illnesses, 26,500 hospitalizations and 420 deaths in the United States every year, according to the C.D.C.
