Once ‘America’s best idea’, National Parks are reaching their breaking point

US national parks are being forced to stay open despite operating on a “bare-bones” crew after cuts to staff and funding. Rangers say they can’t sustain it. From the towering sandstone canyons in Zion, to the Rocky Mountain ranges at Grand Teton and the bubbling, rainbow geysers at Yellowstone — there’s a reason millions flock to America’s national parks every year, including 726,000 Australians in 2024 alone. Famously coined “America’s best idea” by Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist and environmentalist Wallace Stegner, the parks are “absolutely American, absolutely democratic … they reflect us at our best rather than our worst”, he

Breaking China’s rare earth monopoly will define the next industrial era

Brussels: There’s much talk about critical materials like lithium and cobalt, and rare earths like dysprosium and cerium, these days. China has a near-monopoly on these minerals that are essential for high-technology manufacturing, as well as for climate transition, across the world. In such a situation, how can countries ensure a better access to supply chains? For starters, ‘rare earths’, despite their nomenclature, are actually found almost everywhere, often combined in small quantities with other metals. They had been used for years, but usually for niche applications such as military electronics. However, one of their main uses – manufacture of

Trump appears to link Iran attack to his 2020 election loss | US-Israel war on Iran

Donald Trump on Saturday appeared to link the massive attack he ordered against Iran to his persistent claims about his 2020 election loss to former president Joe Biden, in a social media post about allegations that Tehran’s government interfered in the US president elections. “Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump,” his Truth Social post said, “and now faces renewed war with United States”. Those words, written in the first hours of the bombardment of Iran, repeated the headline of an article to which he linked from Just the News, a Trump-friendly news site. “Iranian intelligence

BREAKING! US Inflation Data Released! Here’s Bitcoin’s (BTC) Initial Reaction!

The leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC), after rising towards $73,000 following the ceasefire between the US and Iran, continues to remain above $70,000.

While there is talk that the Fed might even raise interest rates in

A two-week ceasefire deal to pause the war in Iran appeared to be shaky after Tehran closed the Strait of Hormuz again in response to Israeli attacks in Lebanon, and US President Donald Trump said American forces will remain “in place” until the Islamic Republic fully complies with the “real” ceasefire agreement. ADVERTISEMENT ADVERTISEMENT The latest developments in the war come after the US and Iran both claimed victory after they reached a two-week ceasefire agreement on Tuesday night, but fresh violence in Lebanon threatened to scuttle the deal. In an early Thursday morning social media post, Trump said the
