Heat denial: influencers question validity of high temperatures | Climate crisis | The Guardian

Heat denial: influencers question validity of high temperatures | Climate crisis | The Guardian : In a tweet seen millions of times, the influencer Robin Monotti said in July that media outlets were repeating a report from the European Space Agency (ESA) that confused air temperature with ground temperature, which is generally higher. The GB News presenter Neil Oliver took up the refrain later that month, claiming air temperatures in Europe were not as high as stated by the BBC and others, and had not risen above the 30s. He said the higher figures were ground temperatures which could not be compared with the standard measurement temperature.

What the Hachette v. Internet Archive Decision Means for Our Library | Internet Archive Blogs : So what is the impact of these final orders on our library? Broadly, this injunction will result in a significant loss of access to valuable knowledge for the public. It means that people who are not part of an elite institution or who do not live near a well-funded public library will lose access to books they cannot read otherwise. It is a sad day for the Internet Archive, our patrons, and for all libraries.

Uefa%20said%20controversial%20appointment%20of%20Noel%20Mooney%20was%20FAI%20decision%20%u2013%20The%20Irish%20Times Uefa, the European football body, told Minister for Sport Shane Ross that the controversial appointment of Noel Mooney as head of the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) was the Irish organisation's decision. The FAI has indicated that Mr Mooney’s appointment, which has been criticised strongly by the Minister, was a Uefa decision. Mr Mooney previously worked with the FAI before taking up a role with Uefa. Earlier on Friday, Mr Ross called the appointment a “backwards step” and said he hoped the FAI would reconsider it as it would “fracture relations further” if it went ahead. Speaking after an Irish football stakeholders forum which he convened, Mr Ross said he had spoken with Uefa President Aleksander Ceferin this week. “What he said was that, yes, the FAI had picked Noel Mooney.” READ MORE From Paris to west Cork and back: The story of the Sophie Toscan ...

Who is Noel Mooney? Profile of incoming FAI chief | Independent.ie

Who is Noel Mooney? Profile of incoming FAI chief | Independent.ie Noel Mooney was handed interim control of the FAI last night, with the UEFA employee's six-month secondment to Abbotstown formally announced. Mooney is a former League of Ireland goalkeeper from Cappamore in Limerick. He lined out with Limerick, Cork City and Shamrock Rovers during his playing career. The highlight was an FAI Cup win with Cork in 1998. He joined the FAI in 2006 as their club promotions officer and moved onto a broader role with responsibility for marketing the league and general promotions. Like most of the FAI staff employed during that period, he was also called upon to help with the attempts to push the sale of premium level tickets to fund the FAI's commitment to the Aviva Stadium. Mooney completed a postgraduate degree in marketing studies in DIT while working with the FAI. At the end of 2011, Mooney was recruited by UEFA for a role as a marketing manager. "I wish to pay tribu...

Noel Mooney will also play a key role in our engagements with all of our stakeholders as we deliver change for Irish football." Former FAI chief executive John Delaney voluntarily stepped aside from his role as the organisation’s executive vice-president last month. Controversy surrounded Mr Delaney since The Sunday Times ran a story on the €100,000 cheque he wrote to the FAI in 2017. UEFA’s head of national association business development, Noel Mooney will commence work on June 3. Speaking to FAI TV, he admitted he needs to start by building “trust” back with the people of Ireland. “Working with all of our stakeholders, I am confident Irish football will emerge stronger and better over the next f...
