“Uranium mining is raising its head again, because this is what the AI data centers are supposedly going to be fed by,” Buryat Galina Angarova, executive director of SIRGE, the Securing Indigenous Peoples’ Rights in the Green Economy Coalition, tells Mongabay. “AI is insatiable and it seems that the only way to feed it fast and quick is to build additional nuclear reactors.”

Bitcoin is pure evil

"Melania Trump launched her own meme coin, $MELANIA, just days after her husband’s token debuted. It “initially soared to $13.73 per token … Within weeks, the coin dropped nearly 90 percent to $1.50,” Newsweek reported. Once again, it wasn’t Melania Trump who bore the cost, but small investors. After $MELANIA lost 96% of its value, India’s Economic Times described it as “a case study in crypto red flags.”

"The problem isn’t only CO2 emissions, but also local deforestation and hardened urban infrastructure that promote flooding. But what may be seriously underestimated is how large-scale destruction of forest, marshland and other vegetation is dangerously altering rainfall patterns, a theory proposed decades ago by a little-known Spanish scientist."

This is probably to most important story I have ever worked on.

Change the land. Change the climate.

What greatly angers her coalition, and other communities globally, is that governments, without seeking public consultation, are giving priority to corporations and economic growth in the allocation of water over human need. The slogan in protests against the water shortages in Uruguay this year has been the powerful: No es sequia, es saqueo! — “It’s not drought, it’s pillage!”

Demand for renewable energy, particularly solar panels, is growing at an exponential rate. But the shift to solar, wind, EVs and other sustainable tech solutions has sparked an environmentally destructive mining boom and is itself carbon intensive.

Even as renewables boom, we’re burning more fossil fuels than ever, setting new records for emissions. High tech alone can’t save the world from catastrophic climate change; only massive cuts in fossil fuels can do that.
