The ancient Romans used the compound—which they called sapa—to sweeten wine, and the aristocratic segments of the population could toss back as much as two liters a day (about three bottles’ worth, although wine was usually diluted with water). dont worry we stopped using it....except in hair dye until 2018 when finally banned

Don’t worry, American politics is adapting to climate change! https://www.politico.com/amp/news/magazine/2021/11/27/how-climate-migrants-are-roiling-american-politics-523295 quote:But even relatively short moves can create political upheavals. About 37,000 people lived in the 240 square miles ravaged by the notorious Camp Fire in 2018, which burned for more than two weeks to become the most destructive wildfire in California history. California State University, Chico, used postal data to track 13,000 adults in the area and found that a third of those people — many with families in tow — headed 20 miles south and west to the city of Chico within six months of the blaze. Who says climate-blaming fascism is coming? It’s already here!

Trabisnikof posted:Don’t worry, American politics is adapting to climate change! What a really interesting article, thank you for sharing. There's an ongoing theme in The Water Knife where the American southwest effectively breaks down into a conglomeration of feuding states. Arizona, Texas, and Louisiana are all hosed. Through federal legislation, the United States effectively permits various states, such as California, Nevada, or Colorado, the ability to set up border controls to prohibit climate refugees (American or not) from coming into their territories. This is done either by private militia or by state-specific National Guard with effectively no federal oversight whatsoever. Wonder if y'all will ever do anything like that.

I don't need you to highlight your own screed quote:And if it sounds weirdly apocalyptic, that’s because it is. It’s way, way more than a “supply chain crisis.” It is the single greatest period of economic rupture and dislocation in human history. We are the first global civilization — and we’ve now hit our economic limits. And stop asking questions and answering them like some smug bitch with all the knowledge Just tell me info like a normal person quote:Why? For a very simple reason, that you can see everywhere — if you look. quote:As climate change hits north of 2 degrees? 3? It’s lights out, my friends. quote:But in a decade or two? Even the basics will be hit, badly, by the collapse economy. quote:How does fascism rise? When societies grow suddenly, sharply poorer. Uh oh quote:What else does sudden and sharp poverty do, apart from swing people hard right? It changes social attitudes quote:What happened? They fell into sudden, sharp poverty, through underinvestment. quote:What do I mean by that? We now face an age of supply shocks.

Shyrka posted:Cuba is at 1.1 earths and Vietnam is 1.4. Point to me by way of DPRK, yippee. Really though the lie is extended in a really sick way by the idea that a country's output is the most relevant measure, too. What does this study tell me about MAREZ? Why should I think of MAREZ as part of Mexico? I don't and I never will. Aboriginal lands are not Australian lands, First Nations lands are not American land, etc etc. Edit: I'm not saying either that national measurements have no value but the idea contained in this is that everyone is equally responsible (lie) and that there aren't any sustainable practices that facilitate human flourishing (lie).

my dad is a kindof bored/retired 'news' addict in the sense that he has like 4 or 5 different news apps on his phone that constantly push him notifications and he's constantly reading a handful of dumb sites and asking me if i heard about some dumb poo poo a celeb or politician said mentioned vancouver this week... he had no idea. the atmospheric rivers, the mudslides, the flooding, the gas and oil pipelines, the store shelves, none of it. not one iota of "a major first world north american city is turbo hosed right now" had made it to him through all the major news site apps. but then he knew about nu (later in the day named omicron) before I woke up that morning. just a facinating test case in how collectively the news-media to infotainment junkie pipeline completely filters out climate change stuff MightyBigMinus has issued a correction as of 01:42 on Nov 28, 2021 |
