Der Bezos Earth Fund wird bis zum Ende des Jahrzehnts 10 Milliarden Dollar für den Kampf gegen die Klima und die Biodiversitätskrise zur Verfügung stellen. Die Mittel des Fonds geben ihm enormen Einfluss. Viele in der NGOs Szene sehen die Politik des Fonds als Gefährdung für die Unabhängigkeit der von ihm geförderten Organisationen. Der Guardian berichtet anlässlich einer Preisverleihung kritisch vor allem über das Engagement des Fonds für CO2 Kompensationen. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/may/20/jeff-bezos-earth-fund-carbon-offsets-climate-sector-uneasy-aoe

Die Klimabeauftagten der USA und Chinas, John Kerry und Xie Zhenhua, ziehen sich zurück. Der Guardian fast die klimapolitischen Aktivitäten und Versäumnisse beiden Länder zusammen. Beide hätten, stellt Paul Bledsoe fest, erst damit begonnen die Wirtschaften ihrer Länder auf Wege zu viel niedrigeren Emissionen und größerer Klima-Kooperation zu bringen. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/jan/21/goodbye-mr-kerry-farewell-mr-xie-end-of-an-era-in-global-climate-politics

A mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch. I had gazed on him while unfinished; he was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived.
Frankenstein was horrified by his creation now. he even implies that a mummy would be better looking then him.

. I had worked hard for nearly two years, for the sole purpose of infusing life into an inanimate body
He worked towards this goal for many years. his only goal was to bring life to this inanimate body. and now it was about to be a reality.

I brought my work near to a conclusion. The Monster’s Creation It was on a dreary night of November that I beheld the accomplishment of my toils.
Frankenstein finally reached his goal.all his hard work paid off this night. he was about to become the father he longed to be.

Mankind seem to agree, that children should be left under the management of women during their childhood. Now, from all the observation that I have been able to make, women of sensibility are the most unfit for this task, because they will infallibly, carried away by their feelings, spoil a child’s temper.
Wollstonecraft describes that children need their mothers management. Children have tempers due to being spoiled and pampered and need discipline by educated women.

I lament that women are systematically degraded by receiving the trivial attentions, which men think it manly to pay to the sex, when, in fact, they are insultingly supporting their own superiority. It is not condescension to bow to an inferior. So ludicrous, in fact, do these ceremonies appear to me, that I scarcely am able to govern my muscles, when I see a man start with eager, and serious solicitude to lift a handkerchief, or shut a door, when the LADY could have done it herself, had she only moved a pace or two.
Wollstonecraft speaks of men lusting after woman as though they were a prize. Wollstonecraft points to individuality just as we see in current day society.

“They are both gone up to the church to pray. Because I was happy upon the heath, And smil’d among the winter’s snow, They clothed me in the clothes of death, And taught me to sing the notes of woe. And because I am happy and dance and sing, They think they have done me no injury, And are gone to praise God and his Priest and King, Who make up a heaven of our misery.”
This reminds me of the book of Job. Job is a righteous man, Satan goes to God and says "he, Job, would curse God if God stopped blessing him". Job was a wealthy man with plenty of cattle, land and a big family, but Satan tells God to take that all away and Job would curse God. and Blake is saying similar things when he says "they clothed me in clothes of death, and taught me to sing the notes of woe." Blake and Job both were put through tough trials, but yet knew there was a God that would see them through.

He is called by thy name, For he calls himself a Lamb: He is meek & he is mild, He became a little child: I a child & thou a lamb, We are called by his name.
This isn't the first time I haven't read this poem. I love Blake's analogy of The Lamb the clear message of this line is about Jesus, he came meek and mild and like a child, but is also the lamb who came to take on the sin of the world. This is Blake's way of showing who The Lamb really is.

I’m a storyteller. And I would like to tell you a few personal stories about what I like to call “the danger of the single story.”
I believe as a writer it is very hard to tell your story. Sometimes there is dangers in doing so because many might not relate or they will relate so well that they will want to keep those emotions suppressed. i know from personal experience when talking or writing about a personal story it allows me to express a side of myself that i wouldn't have normally done.
