ˢᵃᵛᵉ ᵗʰᵉ ᵖᵒᵒʳ A Call to Save Lives and Address Global Crises

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ Wars, hunger, displacement, and the climate emergency are not isolated issues — they are interconnected threads in the same global fabric. If we fail to address them together, none of them can be solved. Please save the people of Gaza and the kidnapped Israelis. Save the poor in Ukraine and Russia. Every day, around 700 million people—mostly in Africa—go hungry, many fearing they will not live to see the morning. The scale of human suffering is staggering, and the challenges are deeply intertwined. Conflict worsens poverty, poverty fuels displacement, and displacement magnifies vulnerability to climate change. Meanwhile, climate breakdown itself undermines food security, health, and stability — pushing millions more into desperation. If we cannot solve these urgent crises, how can we hope to defeat climate change? How can we achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? These challenges are interconnected, reminding us of t...

The Value of Persistence in Digital Publishing: Journey Since 2017

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ Introduction In an era where online voices rise and vanish overnight, building a consistent digital presence is a remarkable achievement. Since 2017, I’ve poured thousands of hours into blogging, publishing, and curating digital work across platforms — not for vanity metrics, but for the long-term value of having an authentic, searchable record of ideas, projects, and creative energy. The Weight of Continuity Unlike fleeting posts lost in algorithm-driven feeds, a body of work that spans years becomes more than content — it turns into a personal archive of growth .

India, Motorcycles, and Pollution: The G20 Country with the Highest Motorcycle Percentage

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ Motorcycles are more than just vehicles in India – they are a way of life. With over 260 million two-wheelers on the roads and more than half of households owning one, India leads the G20 in motorcycle percentage by far. At around 185 two-wheelers per 1,000 people , India surpasses even Italy, which has around 120 per 1,000. No other G20 nation comes close. But this dominance comes with a hidden cost: pollution. Air Pollution in Indian Cities Air pollution in India’s urban centers is a severe public health challenge. Delhi , for instance, ranks among the most polluted major cities globally. Urban air quality issues lead to millions of premature deaths annually. The major contributors to particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) and overall air pollution include traffic emissions, road dust, industrial sources, household fuel burning, and seasonal agricultural practices. Traffic congestion further worsens the issue, as vehicles in ...

Banking Crisis 1998–1999: Dubrovačka and Croatia Banka Bailouts

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ The late 1990s marked one of the most turbulent financial chapters in modern Croatian history. As the country transitioned into a market economy, it faced growing pains that exposed deep flaws in the banking sector. The collapse of major banks such as Dubrovačka banka and Croatia banka forced the state to step in with costly bailouts, reshaping public trust in financial institutions. The bailouts were not just financial rescues; they were warnings about the fragility of Croatia’s post-transition economy. Background: A Fragile System In the years leading up to the crisis, many Croatian banks expanded aggressively, often without proper risk management or oversight. Dubrovačka banka, once a strong regional institution, and Croatia banka, among the country’s largest, both became entangled in risky lending practices, political connections, and internal mismanagement. When non-performing loans piled up and liquidity dried out...

AI Auto-Organizer Scripts for Linux: The Future of File Management on Desktop PCs and Laptops

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ Managing files on a Linux desktop or laptop can be both empowering and overwhelming. While Linux offers freedom and flexibility, users often face cluttered folders, scattered downloads, and confusing filenames. Enter the AI auto-organizer script: a powerful concept that brings intelligence and automation to personal computers, transforming everyday file management on desktops and laptops from chaos into order. How an AI Auto-Organizer Script Works in Practice An AI-driven script on Linux doesn’t just sort files by type. It can monitor specific directories, analyze file content, and apply machine learning to recognize what a file actually is . For example, a PDF could be detected as an invoice, an academic paper, or a resume, and then automatically moved into the right folder. This means desktop PC and laptop users don’t have to spend precious time digging through Downloads or Documents folders. Think of it as a p...

Rudeš, a Vibrant Community, is a Safe Haven for Everyone?!

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ Yes — Rudeš generally feels safe and functions much like the rest of Zagreb: low violent crime, walkable streets, and a lived‑in, neighborhood vibe rather than a tourist circus. Rudeš fits the classic Zagreb profile— quietly residential, well‑connected, and comfortable to walk —with everyday common‑sense precautions more than enough. Quick Context: Where and What Is Rudeš? Rudeš sits within Trešnjevka – sjever , west of the city center. It’s a patchwork of low‑rise housing, local shops, parks, schools, and sports grounds, served by buses and near major tram corridors. Expect local bakeries, neighborhood cafés, and the easy rhythm of a place people actually live in. How Safe Does It Feel Day to Night? Daytime feels relaxed and practical—parents on school runs, seniors with shopping trolleys, joggers cutting through. Nighttime is typically calm; main thoroughfares and tr...

Banking Crisis 1998–1999: Background to the Collapse

Image
ᴵⁿ ᵗᶦᵐᵉˢ ᵒᶠ ᶜˡᶦᵐᵃᵗᵉ ᵉᵐᵉʳᵍᵉⁿᶜʸ https://climateclock.world/ The late 1990s marked one of the most turbulent periods in Croatia's financial history. Between collapsing banks, fraudulent savings schemes, and betrayed depositors, the trust in financial institutions was shaken to its core. The 1998–1999 banking crisis not only wiped out fortunes but also reshaped the country's economic landscape for years to come.   Banking Crisis 1998–1999: Background to the Collapse By the end of the decade, Croatia's banking system was under immense pressure. Weak oversight, politically appointed managers, and risky lending practices had turned several financial institutions into ticking time bombs. In 1998–1999 alone, eight banks were pushed into bankruptcy —including Glumina, Gradska, Komercijalna, and Vukovarska banka—while Dubrovačka and Croatia banka had to be rescued through state-funded bailouts. This cascade of failures eroded public confidence, with billions of kuna drained in ...
