Coastal communities. in a way that making space for water, so allowing natural processes to come back in places where we can do this, i think thats the attitude we need to have, and that were not going to be able to keep building sea walls and defend, defend, defend. in 2021, nearly 60 acres of trees were cut down in northumberland — to reduce carbon emissions. it sounds strange, but it was done to save an ancient peat bog, which traps far more carbon than trees ever could. the building blocks...

>> well, i think we have to worry when one of our major political parties is willing to embrace a way of thinking about our democracy that would be unrecognizable and unacceptable even five years ago or a decade ago. when you look at some of the laws that are being passed at the state legislative level, where legislators are basically saying, were going to take away the certification of election processes from civil servants, you know, secretaries of state, people who are just counting ballots, ...

Apparently. it is one example of many of how science, rather than taking us away from the natural world, is bringing us closer to solutions for some of humanitys greatest problems. millions of tonnes of sand were shifted to a stretch of coastline in north norfolk to see if a natural barrier could hold back rising sea levels. it seems to have worked. the homes and businesses i won the front line of rising sea levels. the sound barrier idea is cheaper than building a concrete seawall. this more na...

Better coverage, come on, really? kamala harris has failed to do her job. she hasnt opened the portfolio or looked at it or deliberately chosen, theres a crisis on the border. to go to the center, dug into the root causes. this is not part of the lefts agenda, the progressive left of which she is their leader, vice president of the united states, pushing for their own open border processes taking them down, to stop, and good for the state of texas for stepping up where the federal government fai...

Thinking now, with all the evidence? >> i think you listen to how president trump has rounded on anyone who he feels has betrayed him. the former president values loyalty almost above everything else with his subordinates. and anyone who has cooperated, even if they reverse that like mark meadows did, is being disloyal to him. if youve decided that being a trump loyalist is still a priority for you, its a problem if youre being subpoenaed for this committee. but its true, there is a time limit o...

Among my patient population, and it was unfortunate that they -- honestly, i wish they could talk to one another because at the beginning of the week, you know, there was a theme as if, like, anger for the week or depression or people are sad and people are exhausted. and they felt so isolated. and so, you know, at the beginning, it was -- i really, truly wished that there was like a forecast of some sort to let people know, you know, basic emotional, like, processes, like depression often follo...

Prosecutors since taking office. i cannot imagine that he would turn his back to them this time. and then it goes before a grand jury to make a final determination to make an indictment. keep in mind this is not a fast process. we saw it happen over multiple weeks with bannon, that was considered very quick. meadows might take a little bit longer because as luke said, he does have a slightly greater claim to privilege. this isnt going to be an overnight procedure. for people looking to both the ...
