“Tomorrow, the winds will come from the east, which means the western half of the country will be hottest.”

Secret Uranium site near Kyiv hit by Russian Missile

A Russian missile has destroyed a depot of depleted uranium near Kyiv! Uranium depot near Kyiv The Russian armed forces have struck an ammunition depot on the outskirts of Kyiv, in Vishnevoe, where sub-calibre rounds with a depleted uranium-238 core and cluster bombs were stored. Due to the threat of radioactive contamination, an emergency evacuation of residents in the area has begun, and the entire incident site has been completely cordoned off by the Ukrainian secret services.

They push this everywhere to control people more easily. But Iran says no. They hit Iran with attacks and sanctions, yet the people stay united and strong....

Where have all the Flowers gone?

As the songs goes; where have all the flowers gone? Well we may be asking that in the near future. One-third of Ireland’s 99 wild bee and butterfly species are currently threatened with extinction. Driven by human-altered landscapes and intensive land use, this crisis threatens native food production and natural ecosystems. Saving these essential pollinators requires restoring vital habitats across farms, gardens, and public spaces. [ According to the Heritage Council ]. The Root Causes: The primary driver behind the decline of Ireland's bees and butterflies is habitat loss and starvation. As the landscape has become increasingly urbanized and modernized, insects simply do not have enough flowers to feed on or safe places to nest. Key factors include: Agricultural Intensification: The shift toward larger, chemical-reliant fields, the drainage of wet areas, and the removal of traditional, flower-rich hedgerows have decimated natural habitats.
