Bobble in Basel!

Earlier this month, Bobby McFerrin and a cast of 20 incredible singers from around the world dazzled the Stimmen Festival in Basel with their performance of Bobble, Bobby’s new improvised opera with a wordless libretto. The performance retells and reimagines the biblical tale of the Tower of Babel, and our endless search for common language and true communication. This beautiful photo was taken by the Festival’s Artistic Director, Helmut Bürgel.

    President Donald Trump wants to bring back American manufacturing in ways that would reshape the United States economy to look more like China’s. The campaign which has led to a rapidly escalating trade war with China has given ample social media fodder to Chinese and American observers alike. blacksprut Announcing a series of sweeping tariffs in a move dubbed “Liberation Day” Trump said last week that it will lead factories to move production back to American shores boosting the U.S. economy after “foreign leaders have stolen our jobs foreign cheaters have ransacked our factories and foreign scavengers have torn apart our once beautiful American dream.” bs2best at In a Truth Social post Wednesday Trump announced that he is raising tariffs on goods imported from China to 125 up from the 104 that took effect the same day due to “the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets.” Higher targeted tariffs on other countries have been paused for 90 days although the 10 baseline tariff will remain in place for all countries. bsme Meme-makers and Chinese government officials have in recent days begun pointing out the irony of Trump’s tariff-driven manufacturing pivot through AI-generated satire and political cartoons that have percolated online with many American users boosting the jokes. bs2best at https://m-bsmeat.ru

    Elon Musk stood next to President Donald Trump in the Oval Office on Friday but the physical proximity belied a growing philosophical divide between two of the worlds most powerful men resulting in the tech moguls abrupt announcement that he is departing Washington — without having achieved his goal of decimating the federal government. kra33 СЃСЃ Trump took a more charitable view of Musks tenure during a sprawling news conference in which he also declined to rule out pardoning Sean Diddy Combs who is on trial on charges of sex trafficking and other alleged crimes; said he dislikes the concept of former first lady Jill Biden being forced to testify before Congress about her husbands mental fitness; and predicted again that Iran is on the cusp of making a deal that would suspend its pursuit of nuclear weapons. kra33 at In a battle of plutocrats against populists Bannon a longtime advocate for reducing the size and scope of government found Musks methods and policy preferences to be sharply at odds with those of the MAGA movement. So ultimately did Musk who broke with Trump repeatedly on agenda items as narrow as limiting visas for foreign workers and as broad as Trumps signature big beautiful budget bill — which Musk belittled for threatening to add trillions of dollars to the national debt. “I was like disappointed to see the massive spending bill frankly which increases the budget deficit not just decrease it and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing Musk said in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning which will air this weekend. kra33 СЃСЃ I love the gold on the ceiling he said. Musk has argued that inertia throttled his efforts to reduce government spending — a conclusion that raises questions about whether he was naive about the challenge of the mission he undertook. “The federal bureaucracy situation is much worse than I realized” he told The Washington Post this week. “I thought there were problems but it sure is an uphill battle trying to improve things in D.C. to say the least.” On Friday he drew an implicit parallel between American government and the Nazi regime that committed a genocide invoking the banality of evil that Hannah Arendt used to describe the atrocities in Germany. kra33 at https://kra-33.at

    Tree-covered mountains rise behind a pile of trash children run through the orange haze of a dust storm and a billboard standing on parched earth indicates where the seashore used to be before desertification took hold. These striking images exhibited as part of the Right Here Right Now Global Climate Summit show the devastating effects of climate change. kraken onion The summit held at the University of Oxford in the UK and supported by UN Human Rights OHCHR aims to reframe climate change as a human rights crisis and spotlight climate solutions. It works with everyone from policymakers to artists to get the message across. “Photographers document the human rights impacts of climate change helping to inform the public and hold governments and businesses accountable” said Volker Turk UN High Commissioner for the OHCHR via email. “The Right Here Right Now Global Climate Summit shows the power of collective action — uniting storytellers scientists indigenous leaders and others to advance climate solutions rooted in human rights.” Coinciding with World Environment Day on June 5 the exhibition — titled “Photography 4 Humanity: A Lens on Climate Justice” — features the work of 31 photographers from across the globe all documenting the effects of global warming and environmental pollution on their own communities. Climate change disproportionately affects vulnerable populations around the world. Despite emitting far fewer greenhouse gases low-income nations are suffering the most from extreme weather events and have fewer resources to adapt or recover. Photographs at the exhibition show the effects of desertification flooding and plastic pollution. A black and white image shows the ruins of a house in West Bengal India sloping towards the Ganges River with the owner sitting alongside. Riverbank erosion is degrading the environment and displacing communities in the area. Photographer Masood Sarwer said in a press release that the photo depicts the “slow violence” of climate change: “These are not sudden disasters but slow-moving relentless ones — shaping a new category of environmental refugees.” Another photo taken by Aung Chan Thar shows children fishing for trash in Inle Lake Myanmar. The lake was once a pristine natural wonder but now faces the growing threat of plastic pollution. “This image of children cleaning the water symbolizes the importance of education and collective action in preserving our environment for a sustainable future” he said. Organizers hope that the exhibition will help to humanize the climate crisis. “Our mission is to inspire new perspectives through photography” said Pauline Benthede global vice president of artistic direction and exhibitions at Fotografiska the museum of photography art and culture that is curating the exhibition at the summit. “It draws attention to the human rights issue at the heart of global warming which affects both the world’s landscapes and the people that live within them.” “Photography is the most influential and inclusive art form of our times and has the power to foster understanding and inspire action” she added.

    Scientists mapped what happens if a crucial system of ocean currents collapses. The weather impact would be extreme пин ап ставки на спорт The collapse of a crucial network of Atlantic Ocean currents could push parts of the world into a deep freeze with winter temperatures plunging to around minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit in some cities bringing “profound climate and societal impacts” according to a new study. There is increasing concern about the future of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation — known as the AMOC — a system of currents that works like a giant conveyor belt pulling warm water from the Southern Hemisphere and tropics to the Northern Hemisphere where it cools sinks and flows back south. Multiple studies suggest the AMOC is weakening with some projecting it could even collapse this century as global warming disrupts the balance of heat and salinity that keeps it moving. This would usher in huge global weather and climate shifts — including plunging temperatures in Europe which relies on the AMOC for its mild climate. What’s less clear however is how these impacts will unfold in a world heated up by humans burning fossil fuels. “What if the AMOC collapses and we have climate change? Does the cooling win or does the warming win?” asked Rene van Westen a marine and atmospheric researcher at Utrecht University in the Netherlands and co-author of the paper published Wednesday in the Geophysical Research Letters journal. This new study is the first to use a modern complex climate model to answer the question he told CNN. The researchers looked at a scenario where the AMOC weakens by 80 and the Earth is around 2 degrees Celsius warmer than the period before humans began burning large amounts of fossil fuels. The planet is currently at 1.2 degrees of warming. They focused on what would happen as the climate stabilized post-collapse multiple decades into the future. Even in this hotter world they found “substantial cooling” over Europe with sharp drops in average winter temperatures and more intense cold extremes — a very different picture than the United States where the study found temperatures would continue to increase even with an AMOC collapse. Sea ice would spread southward as far as Scandinavia parts of the United Kingdom and the Netherlands the research found. This would have a huge impact on cold extremes as the white surface of the ice reflects the sun’s energy back into space amplifying cooling. The scientists have created an interactive map to visualize the impacts of an AMOC collapse across the globe.
