Their predominant source of electricity has been coal which they have abundant of but is polluting the air they breathe. Does anyone recall the issues they had at Beijing Olympics? They have insufficient sources of oil and gas domestically. Alternative energy sources are their best domestic source of energy.

RandAlThor@lemmy.caOPto World News@lemmy.world•Airbus cuts ties with China’s AviChina, in victory for Myanmar rights campaign – ENG.MIZZIMA.COMEnglish21·12 days agoSo let me give you an update. It’s not been the Rohingyas they’ve been murdering. They’ve been murdering everybody else in the last 4 years. The state Rohingyas live in have fallen into the hands of Arakan Army who are comprised primarily of the natives of the state, called Arakans. Ironically, Junta has been attempting to revive Rohingya guerillas, arming Rohingya militants and fighting along side them against Arakan Army in Arakan State.

RandAlThor@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Valedictorian told to stay home after making pro-Palestinian remarks in grad speech24·16 days agoThe school board’s trustee "agreed that Yao did not break any rules. She cited the OCDSB’s own guidelines, which say “slogans or symbols that signal solidarity, such as ‘Free Palestine’ etc. are permitted so long as they don’t violate the code of conduct.”.
And the board said that no students were suspended as a result of the speech.
So why is this principal’s panties getting all bunched up for? She called Yao and told her not to go to school even though Yao’s not suspended? Sounds like a personal intimidation by the principal to me.

RandAlThor@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Visible minorities in the GTA increasingly supporting Conservatives: U of T study4·21 days agoAssuming a lot of them are immigrants as majority of residents of Toronto are foreign born, this isn’t surprising IMO. Most of them come from societies with conservative values or religious values. Credit to them, conservatives have been good at appealing to different visible minority ethnic bases, be it sex education, drugs, taxes, abortion issues etc etc. Liberals and NDP have taken the immigrants for granted assuming their welcoming diversity will market itself.
