Are other countries still sending bombs to Israel an this point? Germany stopped sending those in the beginning of the year, pretty much only supplying air defence components, the UK has stopped weapon licences and besides that I believe do not like Israel enough.

I am not saying media is not bias, but that some media just spins the truth, whereas others do not have a problem with fslse reporting. After all tankies are called tsnkies, because they ignored that the Soviets used tanks to violently get rid of the Prague Spring. This happens on the left as well.
And yes that is why I like reading economics news websites like the economist. They report on subjects left leaning news tend to not care about, but which can be incredibly important. Also with rich people using their reporting as a bases for invedtments, makes it hugely important that they do not outright lie. Commentary on them is horrible though, unless they go somewhat agsinst the neoliberal norm, which is rarer, but usually some of the best stuff.
We had entire cilizations collapse entirly mostly due to ecological disasters. Illnesses were wipeing out huge parts of the population in some cases. Wars also used to be much more common.
The technologies we have do make the world a better place. Not alwasys, but on average.
False neutrality is propaganda, but so is being so is being activly biased. So a good left news source has to be wiling to show the fscts, when they speak against the left.
By making sure they do not need to try, but can be sure they can get by.
Cargo bikes are smaller then vans. So you can get closer to the destination, without having to carry the parcel.
That would be great, but I doubt that. If US emissions stay stable that would be a 6.6% annual drop over a decade. If Carbonbriefs anslysis of Bidens climate policy is correct and US polizicans do not touch that at all, we are talking 10% annual drops. So far Chinas emissions have been growing most years. They might have peaked right now, but I foubt, they drop this quickly.
Getting rid of the electoral college would not solve spoiler candidates necessarily. For that you would need to replace it with ranked voting or multiple rounds. Would still be a good idea, as the college just means presidents caring a lot more about swing states.
In Germany you only have to use a crosswalk, if it is within 30m of where you want to cross, or 40m in case of a traffic light. Otherwise you can cross wherever you want. Obviously you got to do so in a safe manner.
Even if you adjust for that countries like France, Spain and Sweden have lower emissions. However the EU as a whole is 10% above China. Then again the data is from 2021 so they probably are about equal nowadays.

It really is not. China has built a lot of green tech in the last few years, but economic growth has meant energy consumption grew faster then renewables. However Chinas economy has problems, which China tries to solve by going green. So you get renewables and things like EVs actually replacing fossil fuels.
At the same time China is not a saint and per capita emissions are above those of most European countries right now.
I for my part like that the government is working hard in disrupting oil production.
