Forever Chemicals are found everywhere from the depths of the Mariana Trench to the mountaintop of Mt. Everest. Following 80 years of manufacturing various PFAS chemicals, the world is swimming in chemical permanence. It is a toxic price society pays for modern-day conveniences.

Should the UN stop holding annual COP “Conference of the Parties” climate change meetings? For 30 years, following each COP meeting, CO2 emissions have climbed higher than the year before. That’s thirty years of failure to slow emissions by even a teeny bit. It’s starting to get embarrassing.

Tokyo Electric Power Company – TEPCO – has been attempting to decommission three nuclear meltdowns in reactors No. 1 No. 2, and No. 3 for 11 years now. Over time, impossible issues grow and glow, putting one assertion after another into the anti-nuke coffers.
