I have not seen much news coverage about this. TOP TV is Saudi Arabia's most used distributor of the world cup and it has been suspended by the Media Ministry of Saudi Arabia. There seems to be a pattern of censorship in a lot of the larger non democratic regimes.

We are seeing more and more big businesses try to channel money into curbing climate change (or so we think). Country relations are at one of the worst levels in recent history so it will be interesting seeing countries put these disputes aside for COP 27.

It is a good thing that this summit highlights aid toward less developed countries. Although a lot of the funding that is going towards these less developed countries seems much more like downstream solutions rather than upstream. This aid may help short term but won't in the long run.

These allegations are interesting considering the aid Germany has been giving Ukraine regarding weapons, technology, and refuge for Ukraine. It is even more interesting, however, how it took a comedy TV show to bring this to the attention of the German government.

Disrupting large events and especially important pieces of art has been a trend in climate activism recently, at least the most documented/reported. Although this tactic may get the conversation started, in my opinion, it drives away many people who could (but don't) climate activism.

These nuclear "exchanges" between NATO and Russia are starting to seem much more like a Cold War #2.

This new president is the result of the first stable/peaceful election in decades for Kenya. At the beginning of the event, a stadium collapsed crushing and injuring 60 people, nevertheless, the event continued.

This is the first time shots have been fired during this most recent Taiwan-China conflict. Knowing the nature of both sides' militaries, who will know what happens after this.
