This leads the trio to reflect on their own viral moment, as their Drake vs. Kendrick videos circulated across all major social media platforms.

Durante la torrida estate della capitale dell'Azerbaigian Baku, fervevano i preparativi per la Cop29, la conferenza annuale delle Nazioni Unite sul Cambiamento Climatico che si terrà dall'11 al 22 novembre nel Paese. Per le strade principali, i giardinieri annaffiavano meticolosamente aiuole e parchi e spuntavano ovunque cartelloni con slogan “green”.Ma la realtà del paese è ben diversa. Mentre l'economia azera è largamente dipendente dall'export di combustibili fossili, soprattutto verso l'Europa, il governo di Ilham Aliyev reprime ogni libertà democratica. Giornalisti, accademici, attivisti per i diritti umani e membri dell'opposizione, sono soggetti ad arresti arbitrari, intimidazioni e detenzioni.Un lungo viaggio per incontrare i pochi attivisti democratici e ambientalisti rimasti nel paese caucasico, lavoratori precari del settore oil&gas, pescatori disarmati di fronte all'inesorabile ritiro delle acque del Mar Caspio, avvocati per i diritti umani, e sindacaliste che non hanno mai abbassato la testa. Dai terreni inquinati della penisola di Absheron, dove si estrae maggiormente il petrolio, alle aree desolate vicino ai grandi terminal di lavorazione del gas, dove povertà e siccità imperversano.

BioWith only the funds from his tax return in 2016 Trivelle started The Drive Group and has since grown it into a multi million dollar company. His history of working in start up environments across varying industries helped him to develop the skill of identifying smart risks, and knowing when to step back and when to push forward. After several years working for large organizations such as Davis + Henderson, The Royal Bank of Canada, Genworth, Manulife, and as the Chief Operating Officer for Chelle Service Capital, Trivelle was inspired to start a company that focused on trends and analysis to help businesses achieve consistent cash flow. In the beginning, this kernel of an idea was fueled by his feeling that there must be a better way to do business. That core value is still true of The Drive Group today. The Drive Group has grown from a business consultancy company, to a venture capital and real estate development organization that prides itself on partnering with innovative people and companies. Connect with Trivelle Simpson!Website: www.thedrivegroup.caEmail: communications@thedrivegroup.caFacebook: facebook.com/thedrivegroupincInstagram: @thedrivegroupincLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thedrivegroupinc/Tik Tok: thedrivegroupinc 

Dovrebbe esserci un limite al peggio o almeno al ridicolo. Invece niente da fare.

Dopo Piombino anche i sindaci del Delta del Po dicono no alle trivelle che dovrebbero estrarre nuovo metano necessario a far fronte alla crisi energetica. Temono l'impatto ambientale e possibili danni sul territorio e hanno dichiarato di essere pronti ad azioni legali per fermarle. Parliamo di questo in apertura di trasmissione e poi torniamo sul caso del ragazzino Bilal pizzicato diverse volte a rapinare ma non imputabile per la sua giovane età. Dalla perizia risulta avere meno di 14 anni e quindi è stato nuovamente inserito in comunità, un luogo da dove in passato è già scappato in piu' occasioni. Cosa fare dunque? Ne discutiamo con il procuratore della Repubblica presso il Tribunale per i minorenni di Milano Ciro Cascone. Voltiamo poi pagina per andare in Qatar dove a breve si apriranno i Mondiali di calcio. Un evento che da mesi è oggetto di critiche proprio per il Paese ospitante accusato di non rispettare i diritti umani.

Draghi minimizza l'apocalisse energetica, nel Donbass parte l'ultimo assalto russo, Musk punta alla rivoluzione libertaria di Twitter. Questo e altro nella #zuppadiporro del 19 aprile 2022

Il superbonus può ripartire. Le ultime modifiche alle norme sulla cessione del credito hanno rimesso in moto la filiera: Bpm, Poste e Cdp, che avevano sospeso l'acquisto dei crediti, hanno ricominciato a chiudere operazioni, che però nei prossimi mesi potrebbero diventare più costose. Più costose come le bollette di luce e gas. Per correre ai ripari, il Governo ha varato un Piano per aumentare l'estrazione di metano dai giacimenti nazionali. Con un altro Piano, però, le ha limitate. Come si risolverà questa contraddizione? Intanto, negli Stati Uniti torna Donald Trump. Per ora solo via social.
