Head of Boeing's 737 Max program ousted amid safety incident with jetliner
The shakeup comes weeks after the head of the Federal Aviation Administration said that Boeing is not paying enough attention to safety. ARLINGTON, Va. — Boeing said Wednesday that the head of its 737 program is leaving the company in an executive shake-up weeks after a door panel blew out on a flight over Oregon, renewing questions about safety at the company. Katie Ringgold will succeed him as vice president and general manager of the 737 program, and the company's Renton, Washington site. “Our customers demand, and deserve, nothing less.”In January, an emergency door panel blew off a Boeing 737 Max 9 over Oregon. Bolts that helped secure a panel to the frame of the 737 Max 9 were missing before the panel blew off the Alaska Airlines plane last month, according to accident investigators.

Hydropower Won’t Stop the Climate Crisis—It Might Make It Worse
There was a justification for this, claimed the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) some years ago. Yet its climate experts still contended that hydropower could be a crucial part of the world’s energy transition, arguing that an electric dam will produce seemingly endless energy. Under those anaerobic conditions, rotting vegetation generates methane instead.”While CO 2 also seriously harms the climate, methane emissions are far worse in the short term. Similarly, in southern Africa, water levels at the Kariba Dam’s reservoir, located between Zambia and Zimbabwe, have fluctuated drastically, impairing its ability to produce consistent energy. Hydropower won’t help solve the climate crisis, but new dam projects may lead to war over one thing key to our survival—access to fresh, clean water.
