TEPCO is releasing three million gallons of low-level radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean. (April 4, 2011) This is being done to prevent the release of the more toxic water collecting around the nuclear reactors at the Fukushima nuclear plant. This will have a serious impact on the local fishing industry.

Akerson's last day at GM. He talks about saving GM and the selection of Mary Barra as the new CEO. In a talk with employees at the Detroit Rennaissance Center Akerson says about saving GM: " You had to feel you were doing something for the country. To let the industry go by the wayside... it could be fixed and I love an underdog. Although I am a Republican I knew the bailout was the right thing to do." He says about Barra that when she took the product development job things were in chaos, and Barra was a decisive person who did a miraculous job in an uncomfortable situation. About Barra's personal characteristics Akerson says- "she is humble, confident and decisive and she will move the needle- also a very balanced individual and well centred."

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
