  • Demand for gas down 7% as wind energy increases

  • But the methane gets burned to CO2. Sure leaks are worse as a greenhouse gas, but then you'd need to count air pollution, radiation, water pollution, etc. from coal mining and burning too.

  • Coal is the real enemy, gas is already relatively "green" (albeit still non-renewable).

  • Nearly 25,000 tech workers were laid off in the first weeks of 2024. Why is that?

  • Unions can't stop layoffs - at best they can just change the order in which employees are laid off (First-in Last-out / seniority), I guess the process might make the company reconsider, but there's no direct intervention.

    I'm a member of a union and went through layoffs.

    I think it'd only change if unions had power on the board / guaranteed share ownership, etc. as is the case in Germany (board representation with workers' councils) and was proposed but rejected in Sweden (share ownership).
