After the events in Germany last night European governments should mandate pride events at every mosque to promote unity.

Britain burn ham in a Sunday morning traditional ritual. Red Ken or Gordon Brown?
If only Europe could have a drone surveillance regime monitoring everything, fires would be a thing of the past for centralised political Europe.
I hope the power plants are safe.
Not a great time to go offline.
Another attack at a LGBT event in Germany some migrant car ramming. Disgusting. RESTORE BRITAIN 🏴
The old man said ‘there is not ONLY me.’ He was saying other people are refusing to leave … You mistranslated .
“When someone sets fire to another’s house, only when their own house burns do they truly understand pain and suffering. And the one who tries to teach wisdom to the world must face an even worse fate. Meanwhile, the weather is weighing heavily on Europe with its challenges.”
The lack of a direct link in mainstream news between the climate catastrophes (like the
fires in France) and the destruction in Gaza stems from three primary factors:
reporting gaps in military emissions, the fragmentation of news cycles, and the
exclusion of conflict from climate accounting.
1. The ‘Invisible’ Carbon Footprint of War
The most significant reason for the disconnect is that military emissions are largely
exempt from mandatory reporting. &
• Massive Emissions: Recent studies (e.g., from Queen Mary University of London and
Lancaster University) estimate that the conflict in Gaza has generated approximately
33.2 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalent. & This includes direct combat (bombings,
fuel use) and, most significantly, the future emissions from reconstructing destroyed
infrastructure (concrete and steel production). &
• Reporting Loophole: Under the current UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention
on Climate Change) rules, countries are not required to separately report military
emissions. & Consequently, the 33 million tonnes from Gaza-equivalent to the
annual emissions of countries like Jordan or Croatia—do not appear in official
national carbon inventories, making it easy for general news outlets to overlook them
in global climate statistics. Not surprisingly, the BBC led, so called Trusted News Initiative (TNI) never discusses these FACTS.
What could be the cost
20 years ago we built and demonstrated a clean energy fuel cell that creates water and electricity from waste. We did that here, nar Bordeaux. We were ignored. This is the result of being complacent and reliant on fossil fuels.
This fire is totally manageable a news can be finish this wildfire it's written in book of Daniel 7/13 this news will go like wildfire
Suspect Russian SVR (foreign service) of an arson wildfire campaign in EU over last few days as targeted response to EU support to Ukraine
mad the french accent sounds welsh when they speak english
The Russians committing arson as part of a wildfire campaign is not unheard of in the playbook of Russia
Masks cause horrendous pollution that hurts our environment very much. Google: Disposable face masks used during Covid have left chemical timebomb.
I think the French are going to have to accept that tourists won't be coming in Summer time anymore as it just too hot
Could that lady @2:23 BE anymore French? Complaining about the manner in which her life was saved 😂
Right-wingers be like: TOTALLY NORMAL SUMMER, NOTHING TO SEE HERE
Exon should pay then …
God is warning the world, this is joke to what will come, we saw this in America a few years ago, now in Europe, Russia is burning to, its smoke and flames, we had COVID that killed more than 6 million people. But this is a joke to what is to come, God will not give his kingdom to another.
Where were these fires during the Ardennes invasion by the Germans in 1940 😂😂
This is what happens when you spend all your countries money on military defence instead of natural disaster defence, you can take life in a second, but preserve life and you fast run out of options
