Vladimir Putin faces rare public protests as he blames 'criminal negligence' for deadly mall fire

0 comments

Vladimir Putin faces rare public protests as he blames 'criminal negligence' for deadly mall fireRare displays of public anger were directed at Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday following a fire over the weekend that killed dozens of children in a Siberian shopping centre.  The outpouring of emotion since Sunday's inferno has been stoked by revelations about breaches of safety regulations, including locked fire exits and a faulty alarm system. Russian media have reported that 41 of the 64 dead were children. Two employees of the Zimnaya Vishnya shopping centre in Kemerovo appeared in court to face charges of negligence and compromising security systems on Tuesday afternoon. Nadezhda Suddenok, the manager of the shopping centre, and Alexander Nikitin, the employee responsible for the building's fire fighting and alarm systems, appeared at a hearing in the Siberian city's Zavodsky District Court on Tuesday afternoon.  Russian President Vladimir Putin listens to locals and relatives of the victims Credit: Alexei Druzhinin They are among five people who have been detained in connection with failings that led to the tragedy, Alexander Batrykin, the head of the Russian Investigative Committee, said.  In comments carried on national television, Mr Bastrykin told Mr Putin on Tuesday that the building's fire alarm system had been out of order since March 19 and that a guard had not turned on the public address system to tell people to evacuated.  Earlier in the day Mr Putin made an attempt to respond to the outrage by visiting some of the victims and the site of the burnt-out shopping centre in the city of Kemerovo. He vowed to punish those guilty of what he said was “criminal negligence.”  "This isn't war, it's not an unexpected methane explosion at a coal mine. People came to relax, children. We're talking about demography and losing so many people," Mr Putin said in a televised meeting with local officials.  Relatives held up pictures of children who had perished in the fire Credit:  TASS/Barcroft Images  "The first emotion when hearing about the number of dead and dead children is not to cry but to wail. And when you listen to what has been said here, speaking honestly, other emotions arise." Official pictures of Mr Putin’s highly-choreographed visit contrasted with the raw anger on display at an impromptu rally in the city centre where people carried photographs, in black frames, of children who were killed in the fire.  There were placards asking: “How many really died?", "Who's really guilty?" and "How much do your closed eyes cost?" At least one sign demanded that Putin and local officials resign, and chants of “resign, resign, resign” were heard from the crowd.  An aerial view shows the roof of the shopping centre had collpased Credit: Russian Ministry for Emergency Situations/AP Igor Vostrikov, a father of three whose children, wife and sister died in the blaze was involved in an angry exchange with the region’s deputy governor, Sergei Tsivilyov, who got down on his knees in an attempt to quieten the crowd.  Many of those present said they believed the number of victims to be much higher than officially acknowledged. The authorities appeared to do everything they could to try and minimize the impact of the furious crowds. At one point hundreds of riot police were deployed to stop people from storming a local government building. Thousands turned out for the impromptu protests Credit: Sergei Gavrilenko/ AP While Putin’s visit was reported in detail by state-owned television, there was little coverage of protests.  Aman Tuleev, the governor of Kemerovo Region, told the Russian president in a televised meeting that those demonstrating were “speculating on the grief of strangers.”  Shrines of flowers and candles have sprung up in cities across Russia in memory of those killed during what was Russia's deadliest fire in a decade.  Vladimir Putin visits victims of the shopping centre blaze at a hospital in Kemerovo Credit: Alexei Druzhinin /TASS/Getty The Kremlin has declared Wednesday an official day of mourning.  Several Russian cities held rallies of mourning on Tuesday evening as anger and grief swept the country.  In Moscow, several thousand people gathered in silence to lay flowers and light candles at an improvised memorial on Pushkin Square, not far from the Kremlin.  A chant of "Fire Putin" was briefly taken up by some members of the meeting, but petered out.

Malala makes first trip to Pakistan since Taliban attackNobel peace laureate Malala Yousafzai returned to Pakistan on Thursday, officials said, in her first visit since she was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman six years ago for advocating education for girls. The 20-year-old's unannounced arrival with her parents under tight security at Islamabad's international airport overnight has been met with a tsunami of social media reaction, with many Pakistanis hailing her bravery but others accusing her of a conspiracy to foment dissent. Malala is widely respected internationally for her activism, but opinion is divided in Pakistan where some conservatives view her as a Western agent on a mission to shame her country.

‘Time to join the NRA.’ Calls to repeal the Second Amendment set off commenters

0 comments

‘Time to join the NRA.’ Calls to repeal the Second Amendment set off commenters“Everyone has an opinion, thankfully we have the constitution.” “I can think of fewer things that would create a state of open rebellion in the United States.” Retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens’s call for a repeal of the Second Amendment has Newsroom readers up in arms. In a New York Times op-ed piece, Stevens said March for Our Lives protesters asking for gun law reform should ask for more: “They should demand a repeal of the Second Amendment.” The vast majority of the thousands of Newsroom comments on the Yahoo News report show strong opposition: “I have never owned a gun in my life, but fully understand the importance of the Second Amendment.” President Trump, meanwhile, completely dismissed Stevens’s call to repeal, tweeting, “The Second Amendment will never be repealed!” The Second Amendment says: “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Stevens called for the repeal in order to weaken the National Rifle Association. The NRA answered back with its own statement: “We will unapologetically continue to fight to protect this fundamental freedom.” What do you think? Join the conversation in Newsroom.

China and Russia accused of waging 'war on human rights' at UNThe UN Human Rights Up Front initiative was established in 2014, after a series of UN failures in preventing or sounding the alarm over atrocities. China and Russia are leading a stealthy and increasingly successful effort at the United Nations to weaken UN efforts to protect human rights around the world, according to diplomats and activists. The two countries have used the UN budget panel, known as the fifth committee, to cut funding for human rights monitors and for a senior post in the secretary general’s office which is supposed to ensure that human rights – one of three pillars of the UN’s function – are not forgotten in its day-to-day work.

Leaked EPA email tells staff to play up climate denial, ignore actual data

0 comments

Leaked EPA email tells staff to play up climate denial, ignore actual dataIt's no secret that Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administrator Scott Pruitt disagrees with the overwhelming evidence tying human emissions of greenhouse gases to increasing global average temperatures, sea level rise, and a host of other problems for humanity.  He has, after all, moved to scuttle the Obama administration's regulations that would limit such emissions from power plants, ordered the EPA's climate change websites to go dark, and advocated for a televised debate on climate science, among other actions.  Now comes word that on Tuesday, EPA officials distributed talking points about climate science to its top public affairs staff throughout the country, providing eight talking points about the agency's work on helping America adapt to a warming planet.  SEE ALSO: In court, oil company admits reality of human-caused global warming, denies guilt The talking points, first reported by the HuffPost, are contradicted by both the agency's previous climate science website as well as a federal climate report that EPA scientists contributed to.  The email including the new talking points was sent on behalf of Joel D. Scheraga, the agency's senior advisor for climate adaptation — a program that, ironically, Pruitt has sought to eliminate.  I think it’s only fair that if climate scientists have to explain AGAIN why we’re warming the planet, physicists should have to explain how come stuff falls down https://t.co/CNxwYz60gb — Kate Marvel (@DrKateMarvel) March 28, 2018 According to the email in the HuffPost report, which the EPA confirmed to them as authentic, two of the bullet points outright contradict and distort the findings of mainstream climate scientists, saying:  "Human activity impacts our changing climate in some manner. The ability to measure with precision the degree and extent of that impact, and what to do about it, are subject to continuing debate and dialogue." "While there has been extensive research and a host of published reports on climate change, clear gaps remain including our understanding of the role of human activity and what we can do about it." A federal report published in November, known as the Climate Change Special Report, states clearly and unequivocally that the burning of fossil fuels for energy and other human activities cause global warming.   The report — which is the most which is the most up-to-date and comprehensive guide to climate science findings — states (original emphasis included): (In the language of the report, "extremely likely" means a greater than 95 percent chance.) Global annual average radiative forcing change from 1750 to 2011 due to human activities.Image: NCA 4, CSSR. Presumably, these inaccurate EPA talking points will now be parroted by EPA public affairs officials when they deal with the media and the public, since the email was sent to communications directors and regional public affairs chiefs. That could, in effect, spread Pruitt's climate denial around the country under the guise  of a respected government agency. Pruitt has often said it's uncertain how much global warming is natural versus human-caused, a point included in the email that was leaked to the Huffington Post.  However, the November 2017 federal report specified the exact range of what the human contribution is, something that previous climate studies had not done.  It found that human activities have likely contributed between 92 percent and 123 percent of the observed temperature change from 1951 to 2010. (The contribution may be above 100 percent because, absent human activities, it's likely the climate would be cooling over time.) Earth’s average global temperature from 2013 to 2017, as compared to a baseline average from 1951 to 1980.Image: NASA/GSFC/Scientific Visualization Studio."The likely contributions of natural forcing and internal variability to global temperature change over that period are minor," the dozens of scientists who wrote that report concluded.  "This period is now the warmest in the history of modern civilization," the report found. The EPA's now archived climate change website was also unambiguous about what is causing global warming, stating that "humans are largely responsible for recent climate change." It also explains that global warming "... is caused mostly by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere." For Pruitt, conceding the reality of human-caused global warming would necessitate pursuing a radically different policy agenda at the EPA. To date, Pruitt's approach has been to try to dismantle the EPA, particularly its work on climate change but also in other areas — the science be damned.  These bullet points mark the spread of his climate science denial beyond EPA headquarters in Washington, D.C., to the agency's offices around the country.  WATCH: 'Supercolony' of 1.5m penguins discovered in Antarctica
