Island nation Tuvalu and sea rise
Sea level rise, caused by human-controlled greenhouse gas emissions
is destroying Tuvalu's land area.
The country will be gone
well before the end of this century.
What we don't know is whether other countries, that won't mostly be inundated
by the sea, will survive the other global consequences of our way of life.

War humiliations, RU
Prigozhin's maybe-fake coup suggests that
Putin's regime is not as
secure as he would like us to believe.
It follows that Ukraine has
the hope of winning the war and kicking Russian troops out of Ukraine.
The article mentions the debate among historians about whether the
hard terms in the Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I,
caused widespread suffering that helped Hitler seize power. I think
there is a miscommunication in that discussion. The "humiliation" of
Germany, that helped Hitler seize power, was the requirement for
Germany to pay reparations that it could not possibly pay. Every
German felt the suffering from this.
A total military defeat for the Putin forces would not amount to a
humiliation like that.
