Cartoon showing a giant, ringing, old-fashioned alarm clock in a dry, desolate landscape. The clock has skull-shaped bells and the label 'Climate Alarm'. The clock is partially hidden behind a wall displaying advertisements promoting SUVs, cruises, and air travel. People walk by, ignoring the ringing clock because they are all wearing headphones. These are available at a booth with a large sign reading 'FREE Noise Cancelling Headphones - Offered by: TATA Steel, Chevron, KLM, and Shell'

Cartoon showing a red bus, which is a cross-over between a fire engine and a hop-on, hop-off tourist bus. Firemen are unrolling a hose from the bottom part of the bus and using it to fight a forest fire. The top of the bus is an open deck full of tourists taking pictures and selfies. On the side of the bus we see the text 'Sightseeing Europe' with stylized versions of the Eiffel Tower, the Colosseum and the Acropolis, all engulfed in flames, with the accompanying text 'Hotter than ever'. A guide is explaining what the firemen are doing to the tourists.

I will be on summer break until August, so you will have to survive without my cartoons for a couple of weeks. See you then!

Cartoon showing the front of an oil tanker named ‘My Deal’. Trump is on the bow in a very ornate captain’s uniform, looking up with a red, angry face at a control booth on the shore, next to an Iranian flag and a traffic light that hangs over the water with a sign that reads ‘Strait of Hormuz’. The traffic light has a normal green and orange light (which are off at the moment), but the red light is the point of a missile that’s fed through from the back by a guide rail. In the booth controlling the traffic light we see a general of the revolutionary guard.
