L'Institut Català d'Ornitologia #ICO, també diu #NoALAmpliacióAeroport
"Que cal repensar el model de #creixement de l’Àrea Metropolitana de forma global abans de tirar endavant una infraestructura que pot agreujar la situació actual, no només de les zones humides del país i la seva #biodiversitat de forma irreversible, sinó també la qualitat de vida de la gent que viu a #Barcelona i el seu entorn."

Clar i català!

ornitologia.orgComunicat de l’Institut Català d’Ornitologia en referència a l'ampliació de l'Aeroport de BarcelonaL’Institut Català d’Ornitologia, davant de la decisió del Govern català de tirar endavant l’ampliació de l’Aeroport de Barcelona, manifesta:Que cal repensar el model de creixement de l’Àrea Metropolitana de forma global abans de tirar endavant una infraestructura que pot agreujar la situació actual, no només de les zones humides del país i la seva biodiversitat de forma irreversible, sinó també la qualitat de vida de la gent que viu a Barcelona i el seu entorn.Aquesta ampliació posa en greu perill hàbitats preservats que acullen espècies d'aus protegides que, d'acord amb la legislació vigent, cal garantir que segueixin comptant amb espais adients per a la seva supervivència.Que com a entitat científica que es dedica a la conservació dels ocells aportant informació rigorosa i objectiva, tal com reflecteixen els nostres estatuts i el nou pla estratègic que tot just acabem d’aprovar, seguirem posant a disposició de la societat i l’administració tot aquest coneixement per tal de facilitar que la gestió del territori es faci garantit  en tot moment l’adequada protecció dels hàbitats i les espècies. A la zona afectada en els darrers anys hi hem recollit 4.416 observacions d'un total de 250 espècies, de les quals almenys 12 espècies són considerades "vulnerables" o "en perill d'extinció" segons el darrer Catàleg de la Fauna Amenaçada. A més, en les immediacions hi nidifiquen de manera regular sis d’aquestes espècies amenaçades. Jordi BaucellsPresident

@sundogplanets Yes, and that's a reason why #Megaconstellations like it (and others as well as predecessors like #ICO) are garbage.

Compare that to say #Iridium which launched with 77 satellites and those lasted 25 years, way longer than scheduled, and got recently replaced with a new generation instead...

  • Granted even Iridium required bailouts and basically catering to the #US military & intelligence market with their #PTT offerings that unlike #UHFSATCOM at least have #encryption on.

Not to mention #Starlink is a #SpectrumPollutant and can only serve as means to #sabotage #Fiber deployment #ROI espechally in rural areas, thus increasing #DigitalDivide further by making #FTTB & #FTTH buildups (even with government subsidies) harder to justify.

🇬🇧 Around 30,000 files related to workers in the UK, mostly identity documents, were exposed without authentication to access.

Contacted the company responsible, and they quickly fixed the issue and seem to be taking the incident seriously, which is not something that happens often, unfortunately.

Her sense of safety was shattered when a private document with traceable personal information was put on a public website and remained there, despite multiple erasure requests.

She was failed by the Council and failed again by the ICO.

"- After an initial surge of interest in its “initial coin offering,” or ICO, the Bankera digital currency collapsed, leaving many investors facing losses.

- Meanwhile, a Lithuanian company that played a key role in the ICO transferred over 45 million euros to a bank account in the Pacific island nation of Vanuatu.

- The Vanuatu bank that received the funds had been purchased by three of Bankera’s Lithuanian co-founders shortly before the ICO ended.

- Soon after, the bank began issuing millions of euros in loans to companies owned by the same trio — money that was then used to build a luxury real-estate portfolio, including a villa on the French Riviera and high-end property in Lithuania.

- The Vanuatu bank also loaned millions more directly to the three founders, in many cases with the loans marked as being for “personal use.” These loans, like those for the properties, were guaranteed by companies the trio also owned and which were central to the ICO.

- Lawyers for one of the co-founders’ companies denied that the ICO was in any way fraudulent but declined to comment on specific transactions."

UK watchdog probes TikTok over children’s data.
