Journalists at this time of terrible and terrifying existential threat to all* have a greater moral obligation than ever not to simply regurgitate government and corporate announcements with no explanation as to the technical, industrial and above all public health and safety ramifications.

Below – 2, 3 paras down – for example is basic information about “green methane” – which typically in a lavishly public-funded contemporary global accountancy-firm managed-, controlled- and censored world, as ALL governments have run down, even trashed or virtually closed down bureaucratic, public or civil service expertise since the marginalising, virtual trivialising, nonsensising, ravaging and sell-off of public administration on account of M Friedman-GW Bush-A Greenspan 1990s Friedmanism is NOT considered worthy of public airing – LET ALONE the fundamentally important economic management facts of cost, efficiency and carbon emissions cost in production.

The world’s apparent last surviving public enemy of education, science, the rule of law and civil order this side of Afghanistan and the Chinese gangsters’ Burma/ Myanmar, still evading arrest because he enjoys a baffling and bewildering immunity from prosecution by the United States of America federal government is Stephen Kevin Bannon (born November 27, 1953) is an American media executive, political strategist, and former investment banker. He served as the White House‘s chief strategist in the administration of U.S. president Donald Trump during the first seven months of Trump’s term.^[4][5] He is a former executive chairman of Breitbart News and previously served on the board of the now-defunct data-analytics firm Cambridge Analytica.^[6]

“Can you make methane from hydrogen?

“The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.”
