Extinction Rebellion and Scientist Rebellion Italy carried out an enormous "guerrilla" projection on the venue of the 2022 Gastech Conference in Milan, exposing the destructive consequences of this criminal industry.
Fossil gas is just another dirty fossil fuel that emits CO2 when burnt and leaks methane (a super potent greenhouse gas) all along its supply chain. As the climate crisis intensifies, any new gas investments are investments in death and destruction. #CleanGasIsADirtyLie!
Companies like BP, Shell, and ENI are making billions in profits off of an #EnergyCrisis they helped create, cashing out on the war in Ukraine and financing dictatorships worldwide. The salaries of their CEOs are paid for by consumers whose utility bills are strangling them.
We won't be fooled by events like Gastech. THE GAS ERA MUST END! Now is the time to accelerate the transition away from ALL fossil fuels and radically scale up decentralised renewable energy, electrification, and energy efficiency across Europe.

Mosasaurus Hoffmannii - Maashagedis.
.
Mosasaurus, a huge lizard, it's a genus of the family Mosasauridae that lived in the sea. The first fossils were found near Maastricht in the Sint-Pietersberg, on the banks of the river Maas (Latin: Mosa). They lived in the Maastrichtian period, the last part of the Cretaceous, 71.3 to 65.4 million years ago.

Fossil Butte National Monument is a United States National Monument managed by the National Park Service, located west of Kemmerer, Wyoming, United States. It centers on an extraordinary assemblage of Eocene Epoch animal and plant fossils associated with Fossil Lake—the smallest lake of the three great lakes which were then present in what are now Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado. The other two lakes were Lake Gosiute and Lake Uinta. Fossil Butte National Monument was established as a national monument on October 23, 1972. More at Wikipedia

Le moa géant de l'île du Sud (Dinornis robustus) est une espèce fossile d'oiseaux ratites de l'ordre des Struthioniformes ayant vécu au Pléistocène supérieur. Ces oiseaux étaient incapables de voler. Leur sternum est dépourvu de bréchet et ils possèdent aussi un palais distinctif. Ce moa géant vivait dans les basses terres couvertes d'arbustes, de dunes, d'herbes et de forêts dans l'île du Sud de la Nouvelle-Zélande.
L'origine de Dinornis robustus a longtemps été débattue car aucun pont continental n'a relié la Nouvelle-Zélande à d'autres terres depuis au moins le Crétacé. Ce sont donc, pense-t-on, des ratites volants qui parvinrent jusqu'aux régions sud du pays où les moas, n'ayant pas de prédateurs, devinrent ensuite géants et perdirent l'aptitude au vol in situ. Toutefois, ultérieurement, des rapaces parvinrent à leur tour en Nouvelle-Zélande et évoluèrent aussi vers le gigantisme, jusqu'à l'Aigle géant de Haast qui devint un prédateur des moas.
C'est toutefois le débarquement des humains et de leurs animaux domestiques (notamment les chiens) sur Aotearoa (la « terre du long nuage blanc », nom maori de la Nouvelle-Zélande) qui, par le prélèvement des œufs, la destruction des nids et la chasse, mit un terme à l'existence de l'espèce (et de son prédateur l'Aigle de Haast), éteinte aux environs du XVe siècle
The South Island giant moa (Dinornis robustus) is a member of the moa family. It was a ratite and a member of the order Dinornithiformes. The Dinornithiformes are flightless birds with a sternum without a keel. They also have a distinctive palate. The origin of these birds is becoming clearer as it is now believed that early ancestors of these birds were able to fly and flew to the southern areas in which they have been found.
The South Island giant moa was the biggest of them all. Adult females stood up to 2 metres (6 ft 6 in) high at the back, and could reach foliage up to 3.6 metres (11 ft 10 in) off the ground, making them the tallest bird species known.

It lived in the South Island of New Zealand, and its habitat was the lowlands (shrubland, duneland, grassland, and forests). Along with members of the moa family, the South Island giant moa went extinct due to predation from humans in the centuries following human colonization.
What a great event in Santa Barbara, the home of Sustainability.
