NASA Earth - The earth’s total amount of freshwater dropped abruptly in 2014 and has not substantially recovered, according to a new study. Satellite measurements from GRACE and GRACE-FO showed that the average amount of Earth’s freshwater stored in lakes, rivers, plus underground aquifers was 290 cubic miles (1,200 cubic km) lower from 2015-2023 than to the average from 2002-2014. That’s a loss about two and a half times the volume of Lake Erie. Learn more: https://go.nasa.gov/4fwQSNP
Wall Street Journal - One Tesla plant in Austin, Texas, dumped toxic pollutants into the environment for months, according to federal and state government filings, documents and interviews. Musk, who was recently named co-head of Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency, views regulations as a hindrance to innovation because they slow down the work, according to people familiar with Tesla officials. Some people who‘ve worked with him for years expect him to try to curb environmental regulations—including those that affect his companies. Tesla and Musk didn’t respond to requests for comment.
The whole point of neo liberalism is to allow the rich to get away with murder. Trimp and Musk both want to kill you. so they can make money faster without ever comprehending that well managed facilities with continious improvement do not dump much waste because most of what they call waste is valuable stuff in it and why throw profits down the drain. Both claim to be geniuses and both are idiots. Trump has been bankrupt 6 times, Musk builds ugly trucks that keep gettiing recalled as well as dumping toxic waste in the water. Someone who wants to go to Mars needs a 100% recyclable system,. He should try it in his own factories before going into space.
