Hundreds more flights cancelled in fallout from #UK air #traffic #control #failure

source: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/29/air-passengers-face-further-delays-after-uk-air-traffic-control-failure

“Our systems, both primary and the backups, responded by suspending automatic processing to ensure that no incorrect safety-related information could be presented to an air traffic controller or impact the rest of the air traffic #system. There are no indications that this was a cyber-attack.”

So just crappy #software that was cheaply cobbled together without #security.

‘We’re changing the #clouds.’ An unintended test of #geoengineering is fueling record #ocean warmth

Source: https://www.science.org/content/article/changing-clouds-unforeseen-test-geoengineering-fueling-record-ocean-warmth

By dramatically reducing the number of #ship tracks, the #planet has warmed up faster, several new studies have found. That trend is magnified in the Atlantic, where maritime #traffic is particularly dense. In the shipping corridors, the increased light represents a 50% boost to the warming effect of human #carbon #emissions. It’s as if the #world suddenly lost the cooling effect from a fairly large volcanic eruption each year, says Michael Diamond, an atmospheric scientist at Florida State University.

#ExtinctionRebellion #protest in Netherlands ends with 1,500 arrested

Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-65735289

Extinction Rebellion accused police of using water cannon just 15 minutes after the start of the blockade - but police said they had asked the activists to leave and gave them a chance to do so before using the water cannon.

The 1,579 people who refused to leave were then arrested.

Rather different than it began..... #rain #myphoto #music #musica #musique #musik ....
Pogo, I've met the algorithm, and it was me! ;)

Photo is through a rainy windshield, in #London actually, this past summer. I thought of my usual go-to's for "Rain" songs (many). But fate gave me this song, from a beloved band, covered by another, in 1969. And the image? Think I landed upon a very close match. 😎

How Jersey City Got to Zero Traffic Deaths on Its Streets

... In 2018, the booming mini-metropolis across the river from New York City made headlines for being the first city in New Jersey to adopt Vision Zero, the international traffic safety framework that established the goal of zero traffic fatalities. Several other cities across the US did so as well. But Jersey City has succeeded where many have fallen short, going a full year without a single traffic fatality on its roads.

That Vision Zero milestone comes with a caveat — it only reflects the roads that the city maintains. Several major corridors that cut through its downtown belong to Hudson County or the state, and have continued to rack up crash victims. Still, Jersey City is about to end its safest year on record, bucking a deadly national trend. And local leaders are intent on pushing forward with more improvements that will eventually encompass more of the city and region. ...

"Bicycle is the slow #death of the #planet."

⁣
A banker made the economists think this when [they] said:⁣
⁣
“A cyclist is a #disaster for the country’s #economy: [they don't] buy cars and doesn’t borrow #money to buy. [They] don't pay insurance policies. Don't buy fuel, don't pay to have the #car serviced, and no repairs needed. [They don't] use paid parking. Doesn't cause any major accidents. No need for multi-lane highways.⁣
⁣
[They are] not getting obese.⁣
⁣
Healthy people are not necessary or useful to the economy. They are not buying the #medicine. They don't go to hospitals or doctors.⁣
They add nothing to the #country's #GDP.⁣
⁣
"On the contrary, each new McDonald’s store creates at least 30 jobs—actually 10 cardiologists, 10 dentists, 10 dietitians and nutritionists—obviously as well as the #people who #work in the store itself."⁣
⁣
Choose wisely: a #bike or a #McDonald's? It's something to think about.⁣
~ Emeric Sillo⁣

PS: #walking is even worse. #Pedestrians don't even buy a #bicycle!
