What you mean we shouldnt have a system where our acid waste can easily mix into the "ok" waste we just dump in the river?

the acid waste article links to a new factory that Intel is building in Ohio and normally I'd be against this but it's in New Albany, Wes Lexner's fiefdom it would be very funny if the town built by the man who funded Jeffrey Epstein became a pee pee soaked heck hole

I went off my pills (SSRIs) a while back and was doing really well, and I can tell I'm definitely not anymore since I got the urge to catch up on this shitshow for the first time in months. Now I'm remembering how in the middle of december my area had 70 degree weather and a flurry of tornado warnings. lol, lmao

WorldsStongestNerd posted:We hit peak oil more or less as predicted. We started squeezing out more oil by using new technologies and going after inferior sources like shale. peak oil never meant running out, nor does it mean a monetary deficit. last i checked fracking isn't profitable at all. we'll never 'run out' of oil, and we'll have to burn money to keep getting it for as long as possible. what we will eventually run out of is oil that is thermodynamically accessible. which is to say that it once it costs more energy to get oil than the oil can itself produce, we're in for a wild ride. the oil cliff is a thermodynamic certainty, it's just a matter of when.

The idea of burning 100kg of oil to make 90kg of oil, pumping CO2 into the air all the while, is incredibly stupid and therefore I’m certain will happen. At least for a little bit due to societal inertia.

Deep Dish Fuckfest posted:ah now THIS is the sort of high grade, undeniable doom i came back to this thread for. just devastation on an utterly incomprehensible scale What I like about the ocean warming tipping point in 2014 being followed by the ocean deoxygenation tipping point being in 2021 is all of the smug victory laps people who don't believe climate change is bad were taking last year. When those articles about the ocean warming earlier than we predicted started circulating a bunch of people were making greta thunberg memes and clapping and cheering about how climate change was finally proven to be a hoax. Because ocean warm before industry. Therefore all warm not industry. More of that caveman logic and the reason we were always hosed. Sure, coming off of the little ice age the ocean was generally trending warmer. That's on top of our greenhouse gas emissions. Just like the natural methane plumes bursting out of thawed permafrost and ocean floors is natural but most of our population sits down, does some math and deduces that natural methane means methane not problem. If methane exist before then why methane suddenly problem? Ocean get warm before so why warm suddenly problem? I think the people that are still going to crack ping over the environment are running out of road at this point. We don't yet know how the deoxygenation, thwaites, a blue ocean event and warming tipping points are going to come together to gently caress fish, weather patterns and coastal infrastructure but we know it's accelerating and we don't have 80 years of stability anymore.

don't worry everyone, i've had top goon minds over the years reassure me that peak oil isn't real, so don't worry about it if you're some kind of demented doombrain, however, this is a good article abstract that gets right at the crux of the issue. this also ties into my earlier post / image on how economies actually work. quote:All forms of economic production and exchange involve the use of energy directly and in the transformation of materials. Until recently, cheap and seemingly limitless fossil energy has allowed most of society to ignore the importance of contributions to the economic process from the biophysical world as well as the potential limits to growth. This paper centers on assessing the energy costs of modern day society and its relation to GDP. Our most important focus is the characteristics of our major energy sources including each fuel's energy return on investment (EROI). The EROI of our most important fuels is declining and most renewable and non-conventional energy alternatives have substantially lower EROI values than traditional conventional fossil fuels. At the societal level, declining EROI means that an increasing proportion of energy output and economic activity must be diverted to attaining the energy needed to run an economy, leaving less discretionary funds available for “non-essential” purchases which often drive growth. The declining EROI of traditional fossil fuel energy sources and the effect of that on the world economy are likely to result in a myriad of consequences, most of which will not be perceived as good.
