    Our Change the World issue is out today, and I’ve got a story in it that feels a little more nerve-wracking for me than usual, because it’s about the future of my home city, and province: Calgary, Alberta. I'd be grateful if you'd read.

    This story is an absolute zinger. Must read.

    I've been low-key covering this story for more than a year, since Audrey Gelman's pregnant magazine cover. gave me the space to go into the very nuanced answer, which is: Yes, but it’s complicated.

    Now that it’s confirmed: József Szájer, the MEP busted during a gay gangbang, is not only a close ally of PM Orbán, he personally re-wrote Hungary's constitution to include the following line: "Hungary shall protect the institution of marriage as the union of a man & a woman..."

    A fascinating development. Will horizontal drilling be as big a deal for geothermal energy as it is for oil and gas production?

    Really BIG news in the world of geothermal. Test results from the world's first commercial horizontal geothermal well have come back and they are fantastic. Horizontal drilling will be gamechanging. Congrats to and the DEEP team.

    Waitrose says sales of fish fingers are up 87 per cent since 's bhorta on . Other ingredients used also up, unsurprisingly. Nice to hear, tho makes me wonder, how many people didn't have fish fingers in the freezer in the first place. Concerning.

    Key here is the view from Europe: Biden's clean-energy agenda will help—but many states have already spent the last 4 years pursuing their own agendas, and bringing in the European energy traders and producers who had the political backing to get a head start on renewables.
