Biden administration reveals plans for wind farms off the California coast

Biden administration reveals plans for wind farms off the California coast
More than 250,000 acres off the California coast will be open to wind development, the Biden administration announced Tuesday.
Under this new plan, wind power projects would be built off the coast of Morro Bay in Central California and Humboldt Bay in Northern California, and combined, they could generate 4,600 megawatts of electricity able to power 1.6 million homes, the
Los Angeles Times reports. Wind energy does not produce greenhouse gas emissions, and offshore wind farms will help fight climate change and create more than 77,000 jobs, the White House said. Now, there are only two wind farms in the United States, both on the East Coast.

Maricopa County's GOP recorder: There's 'no legitimate reason' for audit

Maricopa County's GOP recorder: There's 'no legitimate reason' for audit
Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer on Monday said he had no choice but to get vocal about his opposition to the audit of the 2.1 million ballots cast in his county during the November presidential election.
Arizona's GOP-led state Senate used subpoenas to get the ballots, voting machines, and personal information on voters, and hired a Florida-based cybersecurity firm called the Cyber Ninjas to run the audit. There is no "legitimate reason that would have prompted this audit," Richer, a Republican, told ABC News Live's
The Breakdown. "It's happening, not because the evidence merits it. All the tests came back clean. The parties themselves oversaw the hand count auditing of 47,000 plus votes."

Under new Florida law, social media companies can be fined for banning political candidates

Under new Florida law, social media companies can be fined for banning political candidates
In response to Facebook and Twitter suspending former President Donald Trump from their platforms, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) on Monday signed a law that fines social media companies that permanently ban political candidates in the state and makes it easier for Floridians to sue the businesses.
This is the first state law that regulates how a tech company moderates speech, and a legal challenge is expected. DeSantis, a Trump supporter, said in a statement that with this new law, "if Big Tech censors enforce rules inconsistently, to discriminate in favor of the dominant Silicon Valley ideology, they will now be held accountable."

EU to impose sanctions on Belarus following forced landing of plane

EU to impose sanctions on Belarus following forced landing of plane
European Union leaders on Monday agreed to impose new economic sanctions against Belarus, after the country's authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko forced a Ryanair flight from Greece to Lithuania to land in Minsk on Sunday so authorities could arrest Roman Protasevich, a dissident journalist on board.
Already, there are sanctions in place against Lukashenko and other top officials in response to the violent crackdown on protesters last year during Belarus' disputed presidential election. Protasevich is the co-founder and former editor of the NEXTA Telegram channel, one of the few opposition outlets still in existence following the demonstrations. Protasevich has been living in Lithuania, and was accused of inciting hatred and mass disorder; he faces 12 years in prison if convicted.

John Cena apologizes for referring to Taiwan as a country, says he loves China
While promoting the latest
Fast & Furious film that he stars in, the wrestler and actor referenced Taiwan as being the "first country" that can watch the movie, sparking a firestorm in China, as Beijing considers Taiwan its territory,

Bloomberg. "I must say now that, very very very importantly, I love and respect China and Chinese people."
China has become increasingly important to Hollywood in recent years, and in 2020, it overtook North America as the world's biggest box office, CNN notes. The

More than 30 countries could face oxygen crises similar to India amid COVID-19 surges

More than 30 countries could face oxygen crises similar to India amid COVID-19 surges
As COVID-19 cases surge in many countries, several could face oxygen shortages similar to India's.
The "key indicator" of a looming crisis is often not how much oxygen is needed at the moment, but how swiftly demand is rising,
All told, data collected by the
Bureaushows that more than 30 countries, including Fiji, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Mongolia, Angola, and Kyrgyzstan, now need at least twice as much oxygen â one of the most crucial treatments for severe COVID-19 infections â as they did two months ago.
Bureau the trend could lead to the "total collapse of health systems" in lower- to middle-income countries. Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Myanmar could be particularly vulnerable because they rely on Indian-made oxygen and equipment. "You'd imagine if they start to see peaks [in infections] of the same degree [as India], then it could be even worse, because India needs all the [oxygen] supply," said Zachary Katz, the vice president of essential medicines at the Clinton Health Access Initiative.
