Little did I know I was swimming around in sewage.... I guess what I'm saying is, this has been going on for a loving long time.

Nobel-winning stock market theory used to help save coral reefs A Nobel prize-winning economic theory used by investors is showing early signs of helping save threatened coral reefs, scientists say. Researchers at Australia’s University of Queensland used modern portfolio theory (MPT), a mathematical framework developed by the economist Harry Markowitz in the 1950s to help risk-averse investors maximise returns, to identify the 50 reefs or coral sanctuaries around the world that are most likely to survive the climate crisis and be able to repopulate other reefs, if other threats are absent. The study recommends targeting investment in conservation projects that have the “strongest potential to succeed” in protecting priority reefs. The gains go beyond positive ecological outcomes and include crucial social, economic, health and nutritional benefits for communities, according to partners, organisations and funders interviewed by Blue Earth Consultants.

I know we have to eliminate the car with extreme prejudice, but I think it's pretty neat how you can keep these old machines running for so long with a little care and patience. https://www.cubaprivatetravel.com/blog/cuba-a-living-classic-cars-museum/

Jel Shaker posted:Nobel-winning stock market theory used to help save coral reefs We have switched from conservation to climate triage where we have to admit that reefs are going completely extinct and we have to prioritize .1% of them we can try to save and re-populate "After the Climate Crisis." This is good news because it's a solution

Jel Shaker posted:Nobel-winning stock market theory used to help save coral reefs What "early signs of helping save coral reefs"? All they've done is identify 50 reefs they think are slightly less susceptible to rising water temps. There aren't "early signs" of this triage model doing poo poo to actually help anything.

"I hope this is not the norm, and I hope it is not on a regular basis," Mayor Linda Brown said. "Because I don't think we could survive year after year after year if this was the case."
