Can Clinton stop trying to drag the other countries into fascism to appease the right wing? I didn't think something this hyperbolic would be reality but that's what we get in the late fall of 2018.

It's not telling of poo poo, it's a stupid argument that is premised on a fundamental misunderstanding of how the Democratic party operates. Because it starts with the premise that Hoyer is her subordinate rather than her rival.

Artificial carbon cap seems like techno fetishism to me and like some have half pointed out we can you know, stop making GBS threads the bed so much instead of wishing someone would make some super techbro. Also maybe we could use Atom plants to make carbon neutral energy, maybe?

Squalid posted:What is an artificial tree? Artificial trees are devices made out of extreme carbon-phillic materials and storage tanks to wick away co2 from the air and store it in tanks. Like condensed trees, if I'm understanding it correctly. BrandorKP posted:A handy sized vessel burns about 25 to 30 MT (metric tons) a day, a panamax probably about 35 MT. Now that doesn't straight convert one would have to do the stoichiometry, which I can do but ehhhh. Sea transport is a pretty serious problem since you can't convert it to electricity, they're basically stuck with fossil fuels forever.

PhazonLink posted:Artificial carbon cap seems like techno fetishism to me and like some have half pointed out we can you know, stop making GBS threads the bed so much instead of wishing someone would make some super techbro. Two things. Photosynthesis as a means of carbon capture is incredibly inefficient and slow. Hence the figures basically calling for a forest the size of India to mitigate to 1.5C. The other thing. And it's the big thing. If say atmospheric CO2 steady-stated at 450ppm, temperature increase isn't 1.5 or 2C, it's 8 degrees. The Paris target is a proxy for the hope that we get our poo poo together by 2100, which is roughly fast enough to avoid ocean heat cycling locking in the more destructive temperature changes. We know this is what happens, ice core samples from epochs with similar carbon levels tell us so. My interest is in seeing atmospheric carbon go back to 250-260ppm. The only way to do that is with massive carbon capture, and the only way I see that happening short of a massive socialist ecological revolution is by economic incentive.

Unless things have radically changed in the last month or so you can Nazi it up in generic terms, euphemisms, and "positive" "My race is great!" type statements on Twitter all you want. You just can't Nazi at one specific person or drop a straight up "gas the __________" / "(ethnic group) are subhuman" statement. Gab is full of people so awful they are unable or unwilling to abide by those incredibly permissive rules.

There is a cross over point for nuclear for some services (big huge fast containerships). It was close in 2008 before the crash and I got to watch a presentation on the Savannah about a nuclear container service, they'd even picked shipyards. Then the financial crisis hit. Ain't been close since. Also almost everything stops if the ships stop.

Basically any reasonable solution to climate change (where solution means our population stays in the billions with no mass collapse of civilization) will involve either humans collectively deciding to make short term sacrifices for future gains (lol) or are dependent on hypothetical technologies that may or may not ever exist. A mass switch to nuclear energy combined with some form of carbon capture to undo the damage we've already done is one of those paths but, barring people suddenly being good, it requires both an economic incentive to switch to nuclear and an economically viable use for capture CO2
