إعصار أفريكا يقترب من سواحل اليمن

Publisher’s rating: لا صحة لما يتم تداوله حول وجود إعصار يحمل اسم 'أفريكا' بالقرب من السواحل اليمنية؛ فالمركز الوطني للأرصاد والإنذار المبكر في اليمن لم يتحدث عن وجود إعصار، كما أن خرائط الأعاصير العالمية لا تظهر أي إعصار قرب اليمن.

Solarmodul-Abfall ist giftiger als Atommüll.

Publisher’s rating: Dieser Vergleich ist falsch. Solarmodule haben tatsächlich eine Lebensdauer von etwa 25 bis 30 Jahre. Somit werden auch Millionen Tonnen Solarzellenabfall nach der ersten Generation der Module erwartet. Aber im Gegensatz zu Abfall von Atomkraftwerken können Solarmodule wiederverwertet werden – und sind nicht radioaktiv.
