Die Agrarlobby lässt den Amazonas-Regenwald niederbrennen - so gnadenlos wie seit zehn Jahren nicht mehr. Jetzt will Brasiliens Präsident Jair Bolsonaro die Abholzung noch weiter anfachen und Landraub durch Großgrundbesitzer nachträglich legalisieren. Dagegen hilft nur wirtschaftlicher Druck: Supermärkte müssen die Produkte der Agrarlobby aus den Regalen verbannen. Die ersten Ketten drohen mit Boykott, doch Aldi Nord, Edeka und Lidl fehlen.

"On April 22 and 23, New Horizons will take images of two of the very nearest stars, Proxima Centauri and Wolf 359. When combined with Earth-based images made on the same dates, the result will be a record-setting parallax measurement yielding 3D images of these stars popping out of their background star fields that the New Horizons project will share with the public."

At least BoJo has a 100% track record.

He has lost every one of the six votes as Prime Minister. This must surely be a record.
