In 1985, the Vienna Convention set the stage for fixing the ozone hole. It showed the power of countries coming together around science. A model we still need today. #WorldOzoneDay #MontrealProtocol #GlobalAction

Episode preview here. We take a deep dive into why many men are feeling lost, why some are turning to Christianity for answers, and the benefits & dangers that can follow depending on the messages they receive. Great insights from Richard Reeves, @drmoore.bsky.social & Rasool Berry @aibm.bsky.social

Van Weel: er zit een politiek motief achter de aanslag. “Je gooit wat bij een politieke partij naar binnen, dat doe je bewust en niet omdat je toevallig een cobra in je hand hebt. Het lijkt me heel sterk dat er wat anders achter zit dan een gerichte aanval op @d66.nl
