Australia is the 5th largest natural gas exporter and 2nd largest coal exporter and therefore a significant impacter of climate change.

It, and all the other fossil fuel nations, should do significantly more than offer a small number of places for those impacted by climate change.

Same here. The "tabs" can sometimes become quite stiff over time due to rusting

Within an infinitely long timeline, yes. Transitions take time and few are willing to take the immediate financial (and thus political hit) to do so.

One example is pharmaceutical companies, which represent a significant portion of goods produced in Europe. There is no market similar to the US where prices and consumption are both significantly high, so I would argue they would simply take a significant hit.

Economics is rarely done in long term thought because political cycles rely on economic performance. It's stupid, but here we are...

Don't forget oil and gas. Europe has pretty much been living of US gas the last 3 years. lazy link

To note: 100 G << 1 MG Also G cannot be added or removed with a spoon, or did I miss some big leap in physics?

And I don't want to fan conspiracy bullshit, but the timing absolutely stinks to me!

We will never know, it could also be in response to some additional Back-Channel pressure for more post-war concessions (e.g. financial/mineral payment or rights)

They did 2 things well (from an economic perspective) in my vaguely shit memory:

• built of the success of castaway a few years earlier and survivor
• marketed the absolute hell out of it pre-release. I remember hundreds of ads showing in the months leading to to it.

It paved the way for a lot of long running, high budget tv shows like heroes, supernatural etc...

I also severely disliked it.

Jimijett obvs. What more sauce do you want?!?!?1

Maybe I'm remembering poorly, but didn't Almunia have a few brilliant games?
