A carbon tax is an environmental tax on emissions of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a heat-trapping "greenhouse" gas. The purpose of a carbon tax is to protect the environment by reducing emissions of carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate climate change. Some environmental taxes include other greenhouse gases; the global warming potential is an internationally accepted scale of equivalence for other greenhouse gases in units of tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent.

Taxing for departure from RAF Fairford's RIAT 2024 air show is this Hellenic Air Force McDonnell Douglas F4E Phantom II. Fantastic to see this iconic dual seat Fighter aircraft originally flown by the USAF in 1960. Often affectionately known as "the old smokey" or "the big ugly" Hellenic Air Force ordered 58 of these beauties in 1971 under the "Peace Icarus programme" and are flown 117 Pteriga Makhis combat wing in Greece.
Ever so slightly obsessed with the new HMRC building in Birmingham, a shot of it nearing completion now during last nights wander around the city in some beautiful blue hour light.
La source d'inspiration la plus importante pour les sculptures de Dirk De Keyzer n'est rien de moins que la vie elle-même. Le monde est transformé en un monde parallèle alternatif dans lequel les problèmes majeurs et quotidiens sont compensés. Sans tomber dans la naïveté enfantine, la positivité et la pensée transfrontalière se voient accorder une place très importante. Cela ressort d'autant plus du fait que les personnages ne semblent appartenir à aucune culture, ni même à toutes les cultures. Par extension, on pourrait dire qu'il s'agit d'une interprétation tout à fait singulière du concept « d'homme universel », élevé au-dessus des caractéristiques extérieures, des différences culturelles et des tendances temporelles afin de mettre l'accent sur l'individu et la diversité.
L'humour est un autre aspect important de l'art de Dirk de Keyzer. Il croit fermement que l'humour, par opposition à la négativité, peut être le fer de lance de la critique sociale. Humour désarmant plutôt que bavardage pour stimuler la perspective et la tolérance. En ces temps chargés, le travail de Dirk De Keyzer nous appelle à réfléchir sur l'insoutenable légèreté de notre existence. Un moment d'introspection pour appeler à une petite évasion de la réalité quotidienne.
Les sculptures sont un instantané du monde alternatif de Dirk et invitent le spectateur amusé à pénétrer dans l'univers personnel du sculpteur. De cette façon, le spectateur vit la même expérience en regardant que l'artiste en créant. Dirk voit le processus créatif comme une sorte de thérapie qui l'aide à voir le monde sous un angle différent et essaie de le projeter sur le spectateur. Malgré son propre langage de forme unique, des données universelles telles que la poursuite humaine du bonheur, de la beauté et de l'harmonie se voient attribuer un rôle de premier plan. De cette manière, l'artiste tente d'entrer en dialogue avec son public, dans lequel, tout comme dans la vie elle-même, l'accent n'est pas toujours mis sur des objectifs préconçus, mais plutôt sur le chemin pour y parvenir.
The most important source of inspiration for Dirk De Keyzer's sculptures is nothing less than life itself. The world is transformed into an alternate parallel world in which major and everyday problems are compensated. Without falling into childish naivety, positivity and cross-border thinking are given a very important place. This is all the more apparent from the fact that the characters do not seem to belong to any culture, or even to all cultures. By extension, one could say that it is a quite singular interpretation of the concept of "universal man", elevated above external characteristics, cultural differences and temporal tendencies in order to emphasize on the individual and diversity.
Humor is another important aspect of Dirk de Keyzer's art. He strongly believes that humor, as opposed to negativity, can spearhead social criticism. Disarming humor rather than chatter to stimulate perspective and tolerance. In these busy times, the work of Dirk De Keyzer calls us to reflect on the unbearable lightness of our existence. A moment of introspection to call for a small escape from everyday reality.
The sculptures are a snapshot of Dirk's alternate world and invite the amused viewer to enter the sculptor's personal universe. In this way, the spectator has the same experience while watching as the artist while creating. Dirk sees the creative process as a kind of therapy that helps him see the world from a different perspective and tries to project it onto the viewer. Despite its own unique form language, universal data such as the human pursuit of happiness, beauty and harmony are given a prominent role. In this way, the artist attempts to enter into a dialogue with his audience, in which, just as in life itself, the focus is not always on preconceived goals, but rather on the path to achieve them. to arrive at.
