Turkmenistan alkanut tukkia metaanin ”mega-vuotoja” – YK: läpimurto ilmastonmuutoksen estämisessä Jokainen metaanin jättivuoto on voinut lämmittää ilmastoa yhtä paljon kuin miljoona henkilöautoa. https://yle.fi/a/74-20243866 #Ilmasto #Turkmenistan #Ulkomaat #Metaani #Ilmastonmuutos #Keskiaasia #Kasvihuonekaasut

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🕳️🔥 A Soviet drilling accident in 1971 collapsed a #gas cavern in #Turkmenistan, creating a 70-meter #crater engineers set on fire expecting it to burn out in weeks. It burned for over 50 years until the #government ordered wells drilled to capture the #methane, and satellite #data confirms the flames have dropped by more than 75% since 2022. 👉 https://boingboing.net/2026/07/23/darvaza-gates-of-hell.html?fk_bb #darvaza #geology #earth #science #naturalgas #climate #desert #robots #engineering

The Taliban have announced that their retaliation operations against recent Pakistani air attacks in Afghanistan have started. This is a terrible dynamic that must stop. Innocent Afghans and Pakistanis are getting injured or killed. A better option is a diplomatic agreement between the 2 countries that neither would allow its territory to be used by individuals and groups to threaten the security of the other. The implementation of the agreement should be monitored by a trusted 3rd party, for example #Turkiye. This approach is a much wiser course than continuing with attacks and counter-attacks. #Afghanistan #Pakistan #Qatar #SaudiArabia #India #Uzbekistan #Iran #Kazakhstan #Turkmenistan #Tajikistan Source: Zalmay Khalilzad (@realZalmayMK) [ https://x.com/realZalmayMK/status/2027139668312285323 ] #Afghanistan #Qatar #Iran #Taliban

I am pleased that Central Asian leaders are visiting #Pakistan. These leaders have a strategic interest in access to Pakistan and beyond, including of course to the sea, for their trading ventures. They want railways, pipelines, telecommunications and electricity connectivity between Central Asia and Pakistan. Such a development is clearly in Pakistan's interest as well. Of course, Afghanistan's role is vital to the goal of regional connectivity and development. Stability in Afghanistan and good Pakistan/Afghanistan relations are the absolute prerequisite. I suspect the Central Asian leaders visiting Islamabad are urging improvements in Islamabad's Afghanistan policies. I hope the establishment in Pakistan listens. #Afghanistan #Pakistan #Uzbekistan #Kazakhstan #Tajikistan #Turkmenistan #Kyrgyzstan #Azerbaijan #Iran #India #Qatar #SaudiArabia #Turkiye #USA @SecRubio Source: Zalmay Khalilzad (@realZalmayMK) [ https://x.com/realZalmayMK/status/2019483804843581799 ] #Afghanistan #Qatar #Iran #Islam
