Thai navy sailors braved choppy waters to launch a dramatic rescue this week after discovering four cats had been abandoned on a sinking ship that caught fire off a paradise island. After the crew had been taken to safety on Tuesday, the navy was sent to the site of the capsized vessel to check for an oil spill, but discovered a few crew members had been forgotten. "I used my camera to zoom in to the boat, and I saw one or two cats popping their heads out," said First-Class Petty Officer Wichit Pukdeelon of the navy's air and coastal defence division.

Rooftop Solar Forms An Alternative To Monopoly Utility Models
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 11 hours ago
Since rooftop solar became possible, electric utilities have struggled to incorporate it into their outdated business model. In recent years, this lag in utility recognition has become increasingly problematic, risking the health, environmental, and financial impacts of over-investment in large fossil fuel power plants. In over 30 states, monopoly utilities submit plans for new power plants to public regulators without adequately considering how customers will serve themselves. However, a new modeling approach from Vote Solar and the Institute for Local Self-Reliance (ILSR) might ...
This Obscure Energy Treaty Is The Greatest Threat To The Planet
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 11 hours ago
On 4 February the German energy giant RWE announced it was suing the government of the Netherlands. The crime? Proposing to phase out coal from the country’s electricity mix. The company, which is Europe’s biggest emitter of carbon, is demanding €1.4bn in ‘compensation’ from the country for loss of potential earnings, because the Dutch government has banned the burning of coal for electricity from 2030. If this sounds unreasonable, then you might be surprised to learn that this kind of legal action is perfectly normal – and likely to become far more commonplace in the coming years...

While, for example, former President Obama is widely known as the “deporter in chief” for deporting 3 million undocumented persons, there is a false sense among many that former President Trump and his administration is solely responsible for migration injustices.

Small Boats, Nuclear Bombs: Don’t Underestimate Israel’s Dolphin Subs

US Continues Crusade Against Nord Stream 2
Land Destroyer, Land Destroyer - 14 hours ago
*March 6, 2021* (Brian Berletic - NEO) - Despite the partisan political theater taking place in Washington - in terms of foreign policy - virtually nothing has changed with a new US president taking office. Even the rhetoric of the new administration is hardly discernible from that of its predecessor. From US tensions with China and Iran to continued pressure on Russia - the US continues to pursue a singularly belligerent foreign policy as part of a continued effort to maintain a US-led "international order" and to reassert US hegemony everywhere on Earth it is challenged.

Sixth-Generation Stealth Fighters Owes Its Life to This 1940s Jet
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *XF-90, Americas* The XF-90 is one tough jet. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *While the XF-90 was not a successful design, it gave U.S. engineers their first experience developing a clean-sheet jet with afterburning engines, ejections seats and Fowler flaps. For every famous jet fighter like the F-86 Sabre or F-16 Falcon, there is often a connective sinew of prototypes pushing the technological envelope that never make it into service, whether due to teething issues or external factors. In 1945, the U.S. Army Air Force issued a requirement for a “penetrati...
