Lake Mead has gone up a whopping four feet in a month and a half after multiple torrential downpours. But the weather this week and for the next 10 days in Vegas is 105-110 and sunny. lol

Repeat this ad nauseum and you'll see why biosphere collapse is inevitable.

I give the "we're already locked in for 2c because we're only seeing the effects of CO2 we pumped into the air 30 years ago and its only gone up since" statement every so often and I really don't like doing it because you can just see the light go out in peoples eyes. That being said, I do it to people who think stupid poo poo like swapping every car on the road rn for an electric will do meaningful good.

To be fair, it's by far the worst time in recent memory to actually look at buying a new car. You're not going to get real deals, you're going to overpay, and you're probably going to end up with something that's not exactly what you want anyway.

even he's just calling for some abstract corporate entity to be held accountable, probably via fine, instead of the very real human beings in the chain of command that made the decisions involved this is the kind of thing where everybody in the management chain ought to be shot but yeah, no, this isn't even going to go on the ledger as an operating cost like all the other tiny fines they pay on an annual basis

Chevron did in fact get a corrupt judge to imprison him for a month and enforce several years of house arrest as retribution for his legal work in Ecuador Hubbert posted:As much as I really hate the Reddit-esque firestorm generated when debating this topic, I'm actually torn on the nuclear energy debate for a reason very much related to this. molten salt reactors bitch, physically cant melt down. our oil pipelines are going to lay waste to continents when we all die and they fall into disrepair TeenageArchipelago posted:Typical, non fail case use of fossil fuels is going to kill us all. Don't get me wrong companies have proven that they won't give nuclear power plants the maintenance that they need, even outside of how dynamic the real world is and how that can make things hard to plan for, but with fossil fuels even if everything goes perfectly according to plan they will kill us all yeah but its slow and boring so who cares about that. nuclear radiation will melt ur face off so that must be the bigger danger
