It seems simple and easy to just click on a video or the requested product to have it conveniently delivered to your home in a day or two, but this comes with a high climate cost, and researchers point out that emissions for the same goods increase by ten to twelve percent. For example, ships, trucks, and vans may travel not fully loaded but only with the goods booked for delivery, then one must consider the starting point of the distribution center which often does not take distance into account but rather service competition criteria and to meet delivery times they may avoid using trains which have lower emissions. Others have previously pointed out that simply searching for a product online activates a large number of data centers which have high energy costs and a multitude of automatically connected promotional mechanisms.

Anyone interacting with a chatbot supported by generative artificial intelligence could be subtly and convincingly influenced even in decisions about who should govern the polis, at least according to a study conducted by Canadian researchers (based on a larger U.S. study) persuasion becomes very effective by tailoring arguments to each individual; therefore, in theory the responses do not follow consistent logic but aim solely to convince the user to change their opinion until the machine's desired outcome is achieved. To increase the persuasive effect existing databases with user-related data are used, which should be subject to restrictions through appropriate regulations to limit the potential of artificial intelligence.

The Guizhou province in southwest China has mountains where at high altitudes there appears to be an endless carpet of solar panels covering them, creating a visually unnatural effect, but according to authorities however with over eight hundred-sixty thousand square meters of panels, they can generate fifty-three million kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, then cultivation under the panels has been encouraged along with personnel for their cleaning and maintenance which should provide further opportunities for local residents (who already farmed these highlands, for example with potatoes) wind turbines are also part of this new energy industry landscape. As has already been emphasized many times without an ecological supply chain for renewable resources, these technological advances are not favorable in a long-term cost-benefit context; in fact, it is enough to consider factors such as pollution during production and disposal.

A wave of bad weather recently hit Bali with strong vortices, and the authorities have planned interventions to deal with flooding in five of the nine main affected areas. Weather forecasts predict heavy rainfall and wind for Jakarta, potentially causing flooding and landslides; meanwhile, in Aceh, people have taken to the streets to protest the lack of aid and poor humanitarian assistance following the devastation caused by Tropical Cyclone "Senyar" in Sumatra twenty days ago. In Papua, communities are instead complaining about the risk of disasters and instability due to the intensive cultivation of oil palm plantations, which are expanding at the expense of forests, leading inevitably to hydrogeological instability and loss of biodiversity, resulting in a decidedly unfavorable risk-benefit balance.

A video showing ancient Rome reconstructed with generative artificial intelligence to bring the historical setting back to life with what appears to be accurate documentation actually contains gross errors, such as a Roman soldier wearing armor that does not match what is found in museum artifacts, then chariots with four wheels instead of two-wheeled chariots and monument architecture sometimes taken from images of the last century or with other types of inaccuracies. This at least according to researchers who watched the video online which promotes a so-called fascinating world of the Roman Empire in a way that changes one’s perception of ancient Roman life with incredible details. As in other cases of images generated by artificial intelligence applications it should be kept in mind that the machine cannot understand the true essence of the image and sees it as a set of numbers and algorithms.

There have been various discussions following the presentation of a plan to postpone the decision to allow the sale of only electric cars from 2035, also permitting plug-in hybrids, hybrids, and even combustion engine cars (for a very small share) powered by eco-friendly fuels. Generally electric cars are much more efficient than combustion cars and have lower pollutant emissions if the energy supply chain for battery charging is clean; then the entire battery production chain must be clean and which is currently a significant issue. Other problems include the excessive weight of electric cars, often slow charging and some people complain that in the case of plug-in hybrids drivers sometimes tend to charge the battery very little for electric-only use and prefer fuel instead.

A gas like methane with a greenhouse effect eighty times more powerful than carbon dioxide in the first twenty years in the atmosphere in terms of warming potential is under the attention of Canadian authorities who are planning to introduce new regulations particularly to prevent leaks from the oil and gas extraction industry; then methane besides being one of the most potent pollutants is also harmful to human health due to components like ethane, propane, and butane which can cause cancer. By monitoring landfills it will be possible to capture methane emissions with regulations aiming to reduce emissions by one hundred million tons from 2026 to 2040. To report always in Canada on a related note but staying within environmental topics is also expecting more heavy rains in British Columbia which was recently affected by floods.

The habitat of the Tapanuli orangutan would be significantly damaged in Sumatra in Indonesia in the Batang Toru region following the floods caused by cyclone "Senyar"; in fact, only around eight hundred individuals remain and losing even one represents a significant loss for the species and could theoretically lead to its extinction since maintaining a healthy population requires a certain number of animals. The devastation caused by the floods makes orangutans more vulnerable, food sources are less available and the places where the animals find shelter have been damaged or wiped out; moreover, environmentalists had previously reported disturbances caused by human industrial activities. Meanwhile a new cyclone that has already affected Bali and West Nusa Tenggara is approaching southern Indonesia prompting alerts.

There are reportedly at least twenty-one victims and thirty-two injured in Morocco due to floods caused by torrential rainfall that affected the old town of the coastal city of Safi, three hundred and thirty kilometers from the capital Rabat, seventy homes and shops are said to have been damaged and roads in the Atlantic province of Safi became impassable and damaged. Just one hour of heavy rain was enough to flood the houses and weather forecasts predict more intense rainfall to come. but the country had been suffering from seven years of drought, which had emptied the main water basins, with scorching summers that had damaged crops and made working in the fields practically impossible. To report turning the attention to Bolivia that there are six victims and twenty people missing due to floods with muddy water and debris in the eastern areas of the country.

Authorities in British Columbia have reportedly stated that it is time to take action after the floods in the Fraser Valley, which for some recalled the disastrous ones in 2021, with flooding from the Nooksack River in neighboring Washington state affecting hundreds of homes and farms, forcing school closures; then the main highway connecting Metro Vancouver with the rest of Canada was impassable, with entire areas resembling lakes. To report shifting the attention in the Gaza Strip complaints for the limited aid provided to the population affected by the floods caused by the storm "Byron"; in fact, the death toll is reported to have risen to sixteen (several children were frostbitten), with people finding themselves deprived of essential goods swept away by water and storms.
