Or treaties. Make a pact with another country to assist each other if territory is invaded.

Upvoted just because scientists have some wonderfully whimsical names for their discoveries.

Choose your lemonade with care too - lots of lemonade these days has never been near an actual lemon in its life!

Its a good ideal and I'm totally in favour of better pay and unions. Our canadian friends this year have been forced to try emailed christmas cards because of this strike. They've found it much easier, more efficient in terms of time and cost. Unfortunately if that trend catches on, the postal system is only going to be further refunded 😒

It amuses me that top experts in the field can't definitively say if a product is genuine pure honey. At that point, why are we stealing the bees' hard work?

the article states that drax burning wood produces four times the CO2 of radcliffe burning coal; however it fails to mention how much electricity was produced by each one. i expect better from the guardian, but we didn't get it in this report.

trailers always make a game look good, that's their job. when it's released, if it really is any good, you'll hear about it if you keep an eye out!

a big factor here is dogs. if you have your pet with you on a lead, and there are calves(baby cows) in the field, sometimes a normally docile cow herd will be very protective of their offspring. generally if there is no dog, cows realise you are not a threat.

well for a start it produces 0 gas emissions at point of use. we still have to sort out tyre fragments and brake dust, and ensure the electricity grid is non-polluting too. but every hybrid car is burning petrol or diesel, just the same as we've been doing for the last 100 years or so. recent research in the uk has shown that plug-in hybrids are often not plugged in because it's too much bother.
