This illusion was new to me. Does whichever dot you look at turn more purple?

Pretty neat how clearly this lets you see the reduced sensitivity to blue light in the very centre of your vision.

French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu: “As long as we depend on oil and gas, we will continue to pay for other people’s wars.”

France will implement:
A ban on gas in new construction;
Subsidies for heat pumps;
2/3 of new cars electric by 2030.

Lecornu pointed out that a 100-kilometre journey costs on average between €2 and €3 in an electric vehicle, compared with an average of €11 for a diesel vehicle."

End the fossil fueled austerity.

I'm afraid that this is why the US administration wants to shut down ocean observations: they don't want the people to know what is happening in our oceans, as it does not fit their ideology and the interests of their fossil fuel industry funders.
