Rich Nations To Poor: Fossil Fuels For Me But Not For Thee
CLIMATECHANGEDISPATCH.COM -- The rich world's self-inflicted energy crisis over Ukraine has fully exposed their fossil fuel and climate hypocrisy. While wealthy countries lecture the poor to only use renewables, Europe and America beg Arab nations to expand oil production, Germany reopens coal plants and Spain and Italy ramp up African gas production. The poor are told to "leapfrog" from no energy to a sham green nirvana of solar panels and wind turbines, while the rich don't accept off-grid, renewable energy themselves. Consider Greenpeace promoted Dharnai, India's first solar-powered community. Fridges, TVs and electric cookstoves were prohibited so villagers were forced to continue burning wood and dung, whose indoor pollution kills millions every year and WHO says is like smoking two packs of cigarettes every day.

Leadership in Fatimid Times
GOOGLE.COM -- HEINZ HALAM -- The dai must combine in himself all the ideal qualities and talents which may separately be found in the people of different professions and standing.... He must possess patience (sabr), good theoretical education (ilm), intelligence, psychological insight, honesty, high moral character, sound judgement, etc. He must possess the virtues of leaders.... He must be in possession of the high qualities of the priest, because he has to lead the esoteric prayer of his followers....

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
