👁Why ocean currents are slowing — and what it means for you 🧠Susan Lozier 🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English

Oceanographer Susan Lozier dives into the data, which suggests that ocean overturning is slowing down as waters gradually warm — and takes us on board the international effort to track these changes and set us on the right course while we still have time. 🌐Page on TED.com

I have no inside knowledge of a potential stock listing of the popular anti-Whatsapp messaging app, Telegram.

It would probably outstrip the interest we saw during the ICO. Why? Because as of right now Telegram looks like a liberal application that can accept anyone - right after WhatsApp and others have turn on the censorship,” he says.
