Meet the heroic pilots who gave up flying to fight climate change

When it comes to flying, things really have to change. Flights produce greenhouse gases, mostly carbon dioxide (CO2), by burning fuel, which contributes to global warming. Aviation is responsible for about 2 per cent of the world s global carbon emissions, according to the International Air Transport Association. In fact, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the UN s civil aviation body, calculated that an economy-class return flight from London to New York emits an estimated 0.67 tonnes of CO2 per passenger. That s equivalent to 11 per cent of the average annual emissions for someone in the UK or about the same as those generated by someone living in Ghana for over a year.

Refugee camps can wreak enormous environmental damages – should source countries be liable for them?

The Blue Review May 26, 2021 Tents in a Rohingya refugee camp cluster on a muddy hillside in Bangladesh. Saleh Ahmed, CC BY-ND While it may seem that much of the world has been locked down during the past pandemic year, more than 80 million people are currently on the move – unwillingly. Facing conflict in Syria, human rights violations in Myanmar and violence in Eritrea, among other hot spots, refugees are trying to relocate to North America and Western Europe, or at least to neighboring countries. Large camps of displaced persons can wreak major environmental damage. Refugees use and pollute water, deplete wood supplies for fuel, and poach animals for food, often harming parks, nature reserves and World Heritage Sites. These impacts make host countries less willing to receive more refugees.

Some On The Left Are Realizing Having More Babies Is A Good Idea

Some On The Left Are Realizing Having More Babies Is A Good Idea May 3, 2021 Whether it’s a good thing to bring more children into this world is one of the most basic and important questions any human can ask. It speaks to how we view every new person’s wholesale contribution to our collective future. The question is essential, not only to people who adhere to historic faiths in which God’s first command is to “Go forth and multiply,” but also to evolutionary naturalists who believe the name of the game of life is successfully handing off one’s DNA to the next generation.
