And yet, global fossil fuel consumption and CO2 emissions continue to rise. Growth in CO2 concentration is accelerating not slowing. We're still following a Business As Usual 1.0 track.
Roughly 13GtC/Yr turned into 40GtCO2/yr and 60GTCO2e until the 1TtC of accessible fossil carbon is all gone.

L'immagine mostra una pila a forma di cono composta da gatti grigi e bianchi che formano una forma di albero. I gatti sono impilati l'uno sull'altro, creando una struttura con una base larga che si assottiglia verso l'alto. Una corda gialla a zigzag decora l'albero. Sul gatto in cima ci sono delle decorazioni gialle. Il fondo dell'immagine è blu chiaro. C'è un testo in basso a destra che dice "TARTAROTTI".

Following on from yesterday's post featuring four images of backlit rainwater pooled on glass, where I focused on the rainwater, I wanted to show how just the slightest change in focus can alter the outcome.
In these four images I manually focused beyond the glass and the effect is quite different, making the lights themselves more the subject while the water on the glass becomes a refraction filter.

Fungi by Pablo Navarro Simarro, 2025
The aim of this volume is to provide food scientists, biotechnologists and biochemists with a compilation of protocols focused on the extraction of bioactive compounds from fungi. Across its 21 chapters, the volume explores three fundamental areas: the extraction, quantification, and identification of fungal bioactive compounds; the evaluation of their effects on health; and the development of novel functional foods.

Given their nutritional composition, many researchers and companies are working to develop functional foods based on mushrooms, or even to use filamentous fungi to valorize other food matrices and enhance their properties. In the first case, we highlight the use of mushroom flours to fortify bakery products, their application as flavor enhancers, and their use as a basis for biodegradable food packaging films.

In the second case, techniques such as liquid and solid-state fermentation stand out as some of the most promising methods for producing pigments, microbial protein, or meat analogues. These techniques are inspired by traditional fermentation processes used to prepare foods such as tempeh or oncom.

"We gaan in Nederland pas over de rooie als iemand een blouse met een watermeloenenpatroon draagt. Tegen het doodschieten van onschuldige Palestijnse kinderen zijn, dát is pas onfatsoenlijk en antisemitisch. Of zeggen dat Dilan Liegelgöz een leugenaar is, dán ben je niet te handhaven."

'Death run': New film shot in Cyprus reveals UK military help to Israel during Gaza genocide

Hi everyone! Don't know if this is the right place for this, but I've been looking for this pig for my sister for a few months, but unfortunately I can't findBYTESEU (Bytes Europe)
A key issue over the next four years will be how ReformUK's conduct & practice in local Govt. impacts on their polling & electoral chances in 2029?
Helen Pidd has been keeping a close eye on Reform's Lancashire County Council over the last seven months & presents an interesting picture of fragmentation & (often) inaction, and opposition within the Council.
There's plenty of time for things to develop, but already critics can seize on miss-steps & prejudice.

Infighting, broken promises and insisting on the national anthem: what seven months of Reform UK in charge actually looks like
Nigel Farage’s party is gunning for power – so what is it like in the places where they’ve already got it? We embedded with Lancashire county council to find out what happens when rhetoric meets realityHelen Pidd (The Guardian)

I think the parallel is with Lib Dems, albeit in the other direction: they're seen as competent at a local level, but not trusted in national government.
Cognitive dissonance isn't an impediment for anybody who can look at Farage and think him suitable for election, so my prediction is that future voters will revert to electing traditional parties to local government, but Reform to national: this early foray into bottom-up control will be largely forgotten.
But a periodic reminder that Reform is elected not through overwhelming support, but because the 70% of the population repulsed by it can't find a way to work together.
We are being betrayed by our own commander-in-chief on behalf of our adversaries.

Nobody bats a thousand but Silicon Valley is a disease. I’m seriously in “take away their money because they clearly can’t be trusted to play nice with their toys” mood tonight.

in reply to Final Round Player 😷🇪🇺🍸 • • •It's not all bad though! we were heading for +4C by 2100. Now the rapid growth in renewables means we're only heading for +2.5C by 2100. Maybe.
So even though fossil fuel consumption, CO2 production and CO2 atmospheric concentration is still growing, some of the potential growth has been replaced by renewable sources. It's just not growing as fast as it might have been.
So there's that.
