Banning opposition to Ukraine
My friends spent a month talking about the war in Ukraine to move forward. They found it too much fighting fails and Ukraine faces several obstacles – a tired army, unreliable weapons – against a determined enemy.
Although Ukraine has changed, the country has made little progress in terms of military coordination. As casualties mount, soldiers in the trenches are often older and less trained. Ammunition is running out, and communication is difficult. Many countries have supplied weapons to Ukraine, but the accuracy varies widely between different bullets.
Possible: “We are selling our people to their people, and they have a lot of people and weapons,” said a military officer in Ukraine.
Can Japan oppose coal?
Most developed countries have committed to phase out coal over the next seven years. But Japan stands alone in insisting that it can make coal less harmful to the world.
Now, a Japanese company says it can burning coal more efficiently by mixing it with ammonia, which does not emit harmful gases when burned. The idea was developed and heavily supported by the Japanese government, which hopes to export technology to its Asian neighbors.
But critics say using ammonia will only increase Japan’s dependence on fossil fuels – and could increase carbon emissions. Burning ammonia can also produce nitrogen oxide, which is toxic to humans and is another process that needs to be controlled.
Story: Japan began using the coal industry to pay for the shutdown of its nuclear power plants after the Fukushima disaster in 2011. Doing so knocked out 30 percent of the country’s electricity overnight.
