All aboard !
The Fremantle Highway caught fire around midnight on July 25, 2023 in the North Sea. She had departed Bremerhaven, Germany and was bound for Singapore. She was carrying 3783 cars, including BMWs, Mercedes and Rolls-Royces. When the fire broke out, the Fremantle Highway was in the midst of heavy maritime traffic and close to the Wadden Islands, famous for their exceptional biodiversity. The evacuation of the 23 crew members, including 21 Indians, turned out very badly (1 fatality and 7 injured). The Fremantle Highway was towed to the port of Eemshaven in the Netherlands, and docked 9 days after the blaze started. The fire has been declared extinguished, but the Fremantle Highway was carrying 498 electric cars, and cobalt and lithium battery fires can be prone to unexpected resumption.

Fireworks are the simulacrum and the ersatz of war. Vertical flares pollute the sky and horizontal flares are used as weapons.

“Frog Fair” in Vittel: Fast Food, Fast Extinction
Biodiversity damage and animal suffering on the menu of the largest frogs’ legs meal in the world
Paris / Munich / April 17, 2023 – During the “Frog Fair” in Vittel in the Vosges region of France, which will take place this year on 22 and 23 April, about seven tonnes of frog legs are consumed in just two days by some 20,000 visitors. “For this event alone, up to 350,000 frogs are caught, especially in Indonesia and Turkey, where frog populations are already in alarming decline,” reports Charlotte Nithart of the French organisation Robin des Bois. And Dr Sandra Altherr from the German organisation Pro Wildlife adds: “Do the visitors know that for their snacks, frogs are amputated alive on the other side of the world?”
The European Union, accomplice of a slave shipowner
For exporting its livestock, the European Union has, through the Directorate-General for Health and Food Safety, approved the Nader A and the Janay, two substandard ships that accumulate technical, social and environmental infringements. Behind the Switzerland-registered shell company Abdin M in and behind the Marshall Islands-registered shell company Princess Maya Shipping, the real owner of these two substandard ships is AMJ Marine Services, 1195, Old Saida Road, Choueifat (Lebanon).

Scuttling of the Sao Paulo : pollution has a future
They did so at dusk, 349.5 km off the Brazilian coast, on the edge of the Exclusive Economic Zone, “in order to avoid any logistical, operational, environmental and economic damage to the Brazilian State”. In its press release, the Brazilian Navy paid tribute to the aircraft carrier and its crews “worthy servants of the French and Brazilian navies”. The export licence for the ex-Foch in 2000 specified that the conditions for dismantling the Sao Paulo aircraft carrier had to be authorised in advance by the French authorities. In a way, France is an accomplice in this disaster decided and assumed by Brazil.
