"When you are a low-income woman and self-employed as a cleaner, juggling family and work becomes extra-complicated. This is especially the case when you lack control over your contractual relationships with clients. “Up & Go” depicts the huge benefits in terms of income, job security and work life that have been generated by an app owned by a worker cooperative."

The Best Climate Policy You’ve Probably Never Heard Of

> Here’s an altogether different approach, one that has received little attention from climate scientists, activists, or policymakers. The essence of the plan is simplicity itself: just directly reduce fossil fuel production and consumption.

For the example of Kirklees, UK about decentralised renewable energy generation:

> Household savings under the Warm Zones program total around C$16 million per year, money that is available to spend in the region on other things. One hundred direct jobs were created and another 60 indirect jobs. At least 1,000 households have been removed from fuel poverty.

Energy democracy: Redistributing power to the people through renewable transformation.

Energy democracy focuses on ensuring that as technological change occurs, there is simultaneous intentional consideration and commitment to three kinds of social activism: resisting, restructuring, and reclaiming energy systems.

My spoilery review of the yuri visual novel Synergia is out! https://pingudroid.net/2023/01/03/vn-review-synergia/

(yes, I know, my site template is STILL broken xD I'll fix it, I swear!)

TL:DR; the verdict is: I definitely DON'T recommend this visual novel. The art and music are good enough, but the writing is mediocre at best and it has a LOT of glaring issues that should've been left behind decades ago. Play it at your own risk.

Неплохая, хоть и не особо ветвистая вн-ка. 2 концовки плюс эпилог, который на самом деле пролог. Правда финал, как бы это сказать, просто происходит, ты ничего там не делаешь. Но в целом, атмосфера имеется. Вторая концовка вызвала у меня скорее, не знаю, то ли фейспалм, то ли как это назвать, но какую-то ещё инфу добавляет и то хлеб.
