NYT’s moment of clarity: Paper shopping bags ‘might not be as green as you think’ – ‘Paper bags tend to require more energy to produce than plastic ones’ & ‘In landfills, paper bags produce methane & CO2’
https://archive.is/2025.03.24-181404/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/24/climate/shopping-bags-paper-plastic-grocery-totes.html What Shopping Bags Should I Use? – All bags are not created equal when it comes to the environment.

Former spokeswoman for Extinction Rebellion red-pilled on ‘green groups’ – ‘They have ‘nothing to do with protecting the Earth’ & ‘Often caused more harm than good’ – ‘Is it time to defund these NGOs?’
By Zion Lights – Key excerpts: “These groups have one thing in common: they follow an ideology that has nothing to do with protecting the Earth. Despite their strong branding and marketing, what they truly share is the ability to hoodwink and greenwash. … They get away with all manner of bad behaviour. …
“People are generally becoming increasingly aware that some of these groups – particularly within the environmental sector – have often caused more harm than good to the causes they claim to serve. Several have been implicated in dubious activities, including accepting funding from Russia to lobby against domestic energy production. But still, they remain financially afloat. So why are people still donating money to them? …
They also lack transparency regarding the origins of their funding, so we don’t know the identity of everyone who has contributed, funded and worked with them. This is concerning, since they are so influential, successfully shaping public opinion, lobbying politicians, and crafting environmental discourse.”

Lomborg: ‘Hunger keeps declining, even with climate change’ – ‘Over the past century, hunger has declined dramatically’
Over the past century, hunger has declined dramatically. In 1928, the League of Nations estimated that more than two-thirds of humanity lived in a constant state of hunger. By 1970, malnutrition afflicted just one-quarter of all people. Since 2008, fewer than one in ten people have been chronically hungry, although both COVID and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have increased the percentage from a low of just over seven per cent in 2017 to nine per cent in 2023.
Hunger is way down because incomes have risen dramatically and humanity has become much better at producing food. We have more than quintupled cereal production since 1926, and more than halved global food prices. At the same time, extreme poverty has dropped sharply, allowing parents to buy their children more and better food.
Bjorn Lomborg: India mustn’t follow the ruinous climate policies of other nations – Do NOT pursue ‘climate policies that help little but undermine future prosperity’
#India has immense potential. It should avoid the singular climate focus of some Western countries and invest its resources based on rigorous economic science in areas where it can make the most impact and greatest progress.#Raisina2025https://t.co/1FtG3AsxLd pic.twitter.com/RjNi4reVTQ — Bjorn Lomborg (@BjornLomborg) March 18, 2025 Lomborg argues that India should not fall into the same […]
