“The definitive, and damning, pronouncement that the fashion industry is the second most polluting industry in the world. It’s so shocking, so catchy and so easy to believe. There’s only one problem. “It is not factually true,” Kudos to the NY Times and to Vanessa Friedman. Truth is our friend.

“The unveiling of China’s petro-yuan poses a major headache for Washington and its control over Saudi Arabia..” Indeed. Is the anger over Khashoggi really just a deep state reflexive reaction against an overly independent Kingdom?
