Climate Change

In a historic ruling the US Supreme Court has ruled out and given the federal states to have their own rules and laws in regards to policy on climate change. The decision of the US supreme court is of importance because the decision implicitly denies Washington the rights to decide on climate policy of the federal states with the old rules in place. In order for Washington to decide climate policy on behalf or for the entire country it has to come up with a bill to be passed by the congress. In a spate of controversial rulings recently by the US supreme court it overturned abortion laws making it illegal, it made gun laws more accessible to the public and three now this passing orders on climate policy. California has been hit a democrats ruled state with recent and regular wild fires due to climate change. The most recent ruling makes it difficult for Washington to make laws for the federal states with regards to climate policies and to make it compulsory for the entire country to move in the directions dictated by Washington. California spends in billions of dollars every year because of climate change more than many countries. Now the supreme court has put the decision in the federal government's hands to decide whether or not to follow decisions taken in Washington. Until now Washington was able to put more dollars into the pockets of the federal states now that isn't possible anymore. How Washington is going to tackle climate change and honour it's commitments it made to climate change for it to tell anyone to do the same comes as a big question for all of us to be addressed and answered. The United Nations is only an arm to carry out the decisions, it's individual states have to make up their minds. Come July 4th the country is preparing for Independence Day celebrations. There is no more time to postpone important decisions now. Independence Day celebrations can also be celebrated next year. Carpe Diem.

Transcript: The recent debate featuring Kamala Harris and Donald Trump was an important moment for the Democratic nominee to solidify her position as a leader. Yet, instead of seizing the opportunity to project confidence and vision, Kamala seemed to falter, weighed down by personal fears and memories of long-standing struggles. A key point that stood out was how Kamala Harris seemed to forget the very words she once made her mantra in her career as a prosecutor: "Kamala Harris for the people." These five words, often repeated by her during her time in courtrooms, represented her fight for justice and equality. However, during the debate, this sense of purpose seemed absent. The stage was set for her to remind everyone why she was the candidate for all people, but she failed to deliver a message that would resonate on that larger stage. Rather than focusing on a forward-thinking vision, Harris spent much of her time reflecting on the negatives, particularly issues of racism, ...

Dear Team, As we progress further into 2024, it’s imperative that we critically assess our campaign strategies and leadership dynamics. President Biden, with his extensive experience and long-standing commitment to public service, has undeniably contributed significantly to our nation.

These areas demand not only visionary policies but also a profound understanding of the digital age and its associated challenges. While President Biden has made commendable strides in these domains, there is a perception that his methods and pace may not resonate with the urgency and innovative spirit that these issues require. Secondly, the pol...
