Finland phases out coal, ahead of schedule:

“Imported fossil energy has been replaced with cleaner solutions that reduce climate emissions, while consumers benefit from lower energy prices”

“As Finland previously relied primarily on coal imported from Russia, the phase-out has also boosted Finland’s energy independence and, therefore, national security.”

#SecDef #PeteHegseth has reoriented the US #military to prioritize deterring #China’s seizure of #Taiwan & shoring up homeland #defense by “assuming risk” in #Europe & other parts of the world, acc/to a *secret* internal guidance memo that bears the fingerprints of the conservative #HeritageFoundation, including some passages that are nearly word-for-word duplications of text published by the think tank last year.

“The comparison between life in the United States and life in Denmark is not just polemical. Musk-Trump treat Europe as though it were some decadent abyss… But Europe is not only home to our traditional allies; it is an enviable zone of democracy, wealth and prosperity with which it benefits us to have good relations, and from which we can sometimes learn.”
—Timothy Snyder, The Imperialism Has no Clothes

Dear friends in #Europe, #Japan and beyond.....do NOT #travel to the U.S. We are under a fascist takeover......go to #Canada or another country and give them your dollars. (And be safer)


European Union citizens should stockpile enough food and other essential supplies to sustain them for at least 72 hours in the event of a crisis, the EU Commission has said.

In new guidance released Wednesday, the commission stressed the need for Europe to shift its mindset, to foster a culture of “preparedness” and “resilience.”

You can speculate all sorts of agendas here

But you'd be doing that from a traditional view of the world

Which is dead

There's only one signal for you to see here:

#Russia and #USA are untrustworthy, forgettable, and dying

China and #EU, #Europe, are the remaining world powers in the Northern Hemisphere

Deranged cesspits of incoherent zombies lie between them

Maybe because you've been spouting bullshit about a "European civil war" for years while calling others "warmongers."

Time to ditch US tech for homegrown options, says Dutch parliament

"With each IT service our government moves to American tech giants, we become dumber and weaker," Dutch MP Barbara Kathmann, author of four of the motions, told The Register. "If we continue outsourcing all of our digital infrastructure to billionaires that would rather escape Earth by building space rockets, there will be no Dutch expertise left."

I hope they do this.

😱

The conservative forces behind Trump and Musk's Project 2025 are, it seems, operating in Europe to dismantle it. The technocrats, 'Heritage Foundation', and others want to dismantle the EU. They also, obviously, want more wealth for the rich, and use the regular people as their replaceable workforce.

This is no longer fiction.
@benroyce , did you hear about this?
