New York Times essay says you should mate with short people to save the planet
An essay written by author, Mara Altman, for the New York Times insisted that being short is “better” for the future to the amusement of several Twitter users on Sunday and Monday.nypost.com
While reading a different article that addressed this bizarre "climate" piece in the New York Times, I was directed to this link by someone who left a comment under it,

I highly recommend read it .
The author does an excellent job of explaining what may be happening in Society on various issues such as gender, climate, health, education, etc. It is my belief that part of this process is steered from above giving it direction/goals, while there is a large component which runs without any control as it is steered by man's innate automatic programming (human nature).
See what you think.

Electric car battery maker Britishvolt has collapsed into administration after talks about a rescue bid from several investors failed. The majority of its 300 staff were made redundant with immediate effect yesterday.
Britishvolt: Disgust and dismay in Blyth as company collapses
By Luke Walton, BBC North East & Cumbria political correspondent
Britishvolt's plans were hailed by former prime minister Boris Johnson as a key part of a "green industrial revolution".
Kwasi Kwarteng, his business secretary, said the promise of a huge factory in an ex-mining community in Northumberland proved Conservatives were "reindustrialising" the north.
Now, in the view of the government's critics, the project's collapse represents a devastating blow to the "levelling up" agenda.
The gigafactory would have been close to the Blyth Valley constituency, a Conservative "red wall" gain from Labour in 2019.
Its MP Ian Levy says he will work "tirelessly with the government and the council to attract potential investors to the site", but Wansbeck Labour MP Ian Lavery, whose seat includes the factory site, accuses ministers of failing to support Britishvolt with the investment needed.
The wider picture is not all doom and gloom.
Blyth's flourishing wind turbine industry and some other hi-tech engineering employers had already created some optimism.
But the area includes pockets of severe deprivation, and local people have been left disappointed and bitter about today's developments.
What happens next could have political as well as economic consequences in an electorally volatile corner of the North East.
The Unite union described Britishvolt's collapse as "a grim day for the North East".
Its national officer for the automotive sector, Steve Bush, said: "It is extraordinary that despite the UK automotive sector being required to move to the production of electric vehicles, there are still no UK stand-alone factories making the batteries that are required.
"The demise of Britishvolt means there are not even any in the pipeline. The government's strategy seems to be to cross their fingers and hope that everything will be OK.
"The workers are frankly enraged at this dreadful and total abdication of leadership"
However, the Conservative MP for Blyth Valley, Ian Levy, believes the fight for a gigaplant at the site in Blyth should go on.
"It has all the necessary infrastructure, and a workforce who are ready to go. We need this to happen," he said.
When asked whether he wished the government had been more forthcoming with support, Mr Levy replied: "It's taxpayers' money. We have got to make sure any project hits all the right markers [to receive funding].
"The government has to do its due diligence."
When asked what markers Britishvolt had missed he said "That is between Britishvolt and the government."
The £3.8bn gigafactory project had been delayed several times and had struggled to cope with rising costs.
Last year, Britishvolt narrowly avoided going into administration after running out of money, before existing investors stepped in with extra support.
Experts have said gigafactories will be vital for the future of the British car industry, as petrol and diesel-powered vehicles are phased out.
Only one other such factory is under construction in the UK. It is being build by Chinese firm Envision adjacent to Nissan's car plant in Sunderland.
I noticed this article connected to the story - from last year (Nov 2022):
Musk may have eyes on UK's first gigafactory despite Britishvolt ruling out takeover
The world's richest man and Tesla boss Elon Musk could be tempted to swoop in with an offer to buy the plot of land pinpointed for Britain's first gigafactory - a site producing batteries for electric vehicles on-scale. That's according to an an industry source who exclusively spoke to Express.co.uk but wished to remain anonymous. The 3.8 million plant, set for Blyth in Northumberland, appeared to be on the brink of collapse just last week after reportedly failing to secure a £100 million advance on pre-promised Government funding. But a silent investor is said to have saved the company from the edge with a cash injection.
Despite the gigafactory's future being somewhat secured for now, the world's richest man may be keeping tabs on its movements. Mr Musk has previously signalled his interest in setting up a gigafactory in Britain in a move that could bring a huge boost to the UK's EV market.
Given the soaring interest in one of Europe's best potential sites for a gigafactory in recent weeks, the Tesla CEO may once again turn his head towards the UK.
[...]
"If you have got the crown jewels for a gigafactory, it is inevitable that companies will be looking to buy it. It is understood in the market that, since the depreciation of the pound and the dollar, US private equity is starting to look at the business and various technology."
[...]
Ben Kilbey, Britishvolt director of communications, told Express.co.uk: “Company policy is to never respond to market speculation. What is factually correct is that we have the best Gigasite in the UK, and possibly Europe, and for that very reason there will always be interest in the plot.
"It’s like having the best house on the street, getting constant attention. We remain determined and resolute to deliver the Britishvolt Gigaplant for the people of Northumberland and indeed the people of the UK.
"Now is not the time to be second-guessing the energy transition, now is time for private/public sectors to unite and ensure a clean air future for all and the employment of the future.”
[...]
Mr Kilbey told Express.co.uk last week: "The cash injection allows us to bridge to larger, more strategic investments to ensure the successful delivery of a domestic UK battery cell industry. There is an outpouring of support (for Britishvolt) from the general public and private industry, more and more investors are coming forward on the back of the recent news as they see the strength of our business and our technology."
And while Birtishvolt may not want Mr Musk infringing on its own plot of land, Mr Kilbey has previously told Express.co.uk that he would welcome Tesla into the market, should the EV giant wish to enter the UK's gigafactory landscape. He said: “Tesla coming to the UK would be a huge boost for the country and its roadmap for electrification. If we look at recent intelligence from the Faraday Institution, the UK will need around 100GWh [200GWh by 2040] of battery output in the UK by 2030 to satisfy demand.
“A brand like Tesla coming to the UK would boost employment and show the world that the country is open for business post-Brexit. Britishvolt would love to see companies such as Tesla joining the race to build UK Gigaplants. At full capacity, Britishvolt will deliver around 40GWh, towards the end of the decade. That means there’s another 60GWh [by 2030] of capacity required.”
And this from SkyNews:
Britishvolt collapse should spark debate on whether it was actually needed
Sky's Ian King writes that for all the talk that the company was a crucial cog in our electric vehicle future, there are doubts on whether there was sufficient domestic demand in the first place.[...]
Britishvolt has been seemingly cursed from the off.
Its co-founder, Lars Carlstrom, left the company nearly three years ago after it emerged he had been convicted for tax offenses in his native Sweden. There was then confusion when the company announced its factory would not be in Bridgend in south Wales, as originally intended, but at Cambois near Blyth, in Northumberland, where it had been offered more attractive financial incentives to locate.
In the meantime, the company continued to rack up costs, with the monthly salary bill for its 300 employees reported to be £3m.
Britishvolt then pushed back the planned start date for production to 2025, blaming Russia's invasion of Ukraine for pushing up costs, while a request for government support was made. It later emerged that management had put the company on what was described as 'life support' in July.
Then, in August last year, Mr Carlstrom's co-founder, Orral Nadjari, unexpectedly resigned.
The Guardian newspaper subsequently reported details of his extravagant spending, revealing that the company had leased a seven bedroom £2.8m mansion with a swimming pool and jacuzzi for executives, as well as hiring a Dubai-based fitness instructor to conduct yoga classes for staff remotely.
(Ha ha, these people sure know how to run a business
or launder money...)Lack of firm supply deals with carmakers
Graham Hoare, the respected former head of Ford of Britain, was hired in his place as an interim chief executive and, in November, the company secured an emergency lifeline from Glencore, the commodities trading and mining giant, which was one of its shareholders.
But at the heart of its problems was that it had never signed firm supply deals with carmakers sufficient to guarantee future revenues of the kind that potential investors would have wanted to see.
All it had were preliminary agreements with two luxury carmakers, Aston Martin and Lotus, to design batteries for their EVs.
(Who funds a business using taxpayer money on this premise??)
The bigger questions and concerns
Perhaps the bigger question - and concern - is how many car manufacturers will be in need of British-made EV batteries come the end of the decade.
Honda has already closed its plant at Swindon in Wiltshire while Stellantis, the Fiat, Peugeot and Citroen combine, is ending volume car production at Ellesmere Port in Cheshire and converting production there to electric vans and cars whose battery cells will be sourced on mainland Europe.
Mini's owner, BMW, has confirmed the next generation of the model's electric version will be built not at Cowley in Oxfordshire but in China. And it is not yet clear from where the luxury British carmakers Rolls-Royce and Bentley, respectively owned by BMW and Volkswagen, intend to source their batteries as they switch to EV production. Nor are Toyota's intentions clear for its site at Burnaston in Derbyshire.
The biggest question of all concerns Jaguar Land Rover which, it seems, is likely to be relying on European production for at least some of the batteries powering its UK-built vehicles.
So perhaps the bigger worry is not the lack of gigafactories but whether they will actually be needed amid declining output from British-based volume car producers."
Sometimes it all seems like a sideshow pushing people along while waiting until the shoe drops. I mean, to use one of their WEF words, none of this is 'sustainable' and people at the top have to be blind not to know it.
Yeah, and they slipped in the blame Putin card, too. How predictable.
Alas, 300 staff though, that has ripple effects.

Greta Thunbergarrestedphoto-op at German coal mine protest
No, no, no you guys, we've got it all wrong! I just listened to this clip by Al Gore and we're actually boiling the oceans with our C02 which is equivalent of SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND HIROSHIMA CLASS ATOMIC BOMBS PER DAY. And omg did you know that C02 is the secret reason for xenophobia and authoritarianism, too, because climate change will create 1 billion refugees like, real soon? I don't know about you, but I really liked how he uses the tactic of loudness and also the body language of a frustrated rooster to really get his point across.
The gig is up on Greta's performance.
LOL!
I've always wondered what the effects (of that kind of stored energy), have on the human body's health or electrical system.

Hybrid & Electric Cars: Electromagnetic Radiation Risks
How much exposure is there to electric and magnetic fields in automobiles, especially hybrid or electric vehicles. Are there health risks?
David "basically we are all fruit flies" Suzuki, has come out against gas stoves, which is no surprise being the AGW Pied Piper in Canada for the Green PTB.
For those with really no clue who David is, his background was in genetics (yes fruit flies) and he had hosted a Canadian national science show called the Nature of Things - it was very popular. I admit to being a viewer at one time before he got onto the Gore climate bus and entered philanthropy. Thereafter, David has been very useful and influential since Rio earth summit of 92 (Maurice Strong gig) going forward with the AGW narrative.
Noted, though, I've been sympathetic to the Suzuki family in history, as they were unwilling prisoners in a Canadian Japanese interment camp in Canada during WWII (Slocan Valley, BC). Unfortunately, David somehow lost his way and went for the climate gold and also picked up a few houses along the way forgetting about his cherished C02 footprint.
Followed up in this article, also sees NY Gov. Hochul's next round on the AGW stupid train, with her war against gas stoves, gas hot water heaters and oil furnaces (must be a mistake as she says noting about gas furnaces):
A note on the WEF, and speaking of Japanese citizens, here is nice little addition to the independent media by the name of Masako Ganaha.
Klaus "showed his contempt" to Mosako as soon as he heard the word independent. Good for her!
Lastly, which many here know as the Grandfather of the AGW movement, a Rockefeller front man (on the Board of Trustees), the IPPC's main guard, the founder of the WEF - as Klaus himself states, was Maurice Strong himself:
Here is Strong speaking 51-years ago (1972) - hinting eugenics:

I happened to catch this clip from a recent Joe Rogan episode last night talking to a fellow named Forrest Galante, an international wildlife adventurer, conservationist, and author. In this clip they discuss a company called Colossal Biosciences, described as a de-extinction company, that has the intent of using CRISPR gene editing to re-create the woolly mammoth.
Forrest describes in the video that Colossal is combining Indian elephant DNA with woolly mammoth DNA to create an embryo that they will implant into an Indian elephant for gestation. Their plan is to breed 100 woolly mammoths in this way and re-locate them to a park in Siberia where they will supposedly offset global carbon emissions by stomping around on the permafrost covered ground.
This sounded absolutely ridiculous to me when I heard it. I can't help but wonder what could this possibly be a cover for as there is no way that their stated objective has any basis in reality. OSIT Here is a link to Colossal's website describing their mission to revive a number of extinct flora and fauna species restoring balance to Earth's eco systems.
colossal.com
Here is an excerpt:
"The science of de-extinction finds peak application through the processes of reintroduction and revitalization - known as rewilding. The concept is simple: return extinct animals to their original habitats so they can begin reversing the detrimental effects of climate damage. Thus, by leveraging genetic engineering, Colossal will be able to rewild vital landscapes, ending the threat of extinction faced by many species currently in existence, having a positive net effect on carbon offset, and supporting the local economies dependent on the targeted, affected habitats.
In the case of the cold-tolerant elephant mammoth hybrid specifically, rewilding equates to the reintroduction of a large cold-tolerant mammal grazer to the tundra regions of the Earth. By stirring up the ice-locked surfaces of the landscape, stomping out thin, low-oxygen trees, and exposing healthy, carbon-trapping grasses, Mammoth populations will begin immediately restoring the tundra’s role as a climate protector and balancer of greenhouse gases."
Visiting their wikipedia page I was not surprised that they seem to have the approval of the World Economic Forum:
"In 2022, Colossal was listed as one of the World Economic Forum’s Technology Pioneers and was named Genomics Innovation of the Year by the BioTech Breakthrough Awards.[28][29]"
en.wikipedia.org
I can only speculate as to what may really be going on here, but it may be worth keeping an eye on it. Maybe they are planning on resurrecting an army of saber tooth tigers and unleashing them on an unwitting public as part of their depopulation efforts.

The Woolly Mammoth Represents the Beginnings of De-Extinction
Learn now de-extinction is a science that’s concerned not only with tomorrow, but also with 20 years, 300 years, and 5,000 years from now.

Good luck with the project!
Mammoths were not polar creatures end did not live in a cold environment nor in an arctic climate:See the last @Pierre's book, Cometary Encounters, Part I.
Colombia's Energy Minister Irene Vélez spoke at Davos this week confirming that the country will stop granting new oil and gas exploration contracts, a move that in the long-run would reduce exports and eventually lead to country lose its self-sufficiency status and be forced to import energy from abroad.
Last year, the newly elected far-left government under President Petro also passed a law imposing higher taxes on oil, coal and gas industries in the name of environmental justice.
