One of the more promising ideas takes a two-birds-one-stone approach: Sinking sargassum to prevent it from releasing carbon, which would help fight climate change.

The U.K. startup Seaweed Generation is building an autonomous robot that could intercept sargassum patches close to shore, drag them back out to the open ocean and force them to sink to a depth of 1,000 meters, effectively trapping the carbon in the ocean.

I was laughing all the way to work when i heard it.

that's loving assinine, sargassum is a whole ecosystem with a poo poo gently caress ton of incredible animals living in it

i used to be big into aquariums and one of the most idk "avant guard" ones was a no-substrate pelagic sargasso tank where it was reversed, the top was where the seaweed floated and crabs were climbing around and the bottom was bare glass. Total 180 from usual quarium design there were a ton of crazy rear end fish and snails and stuff living in there

only read the url but :sbahj:

I believe you answered this a few dozen pages back!

croup coughfield posted:

if you live in the west and you believe yourself to be invested in the conflict regarding climate destruction, you have an obligation to involve yourself in that struggle as a part of an organized front. it is not helpful or moral to spend every day reading and internalizing the day's new minutiae of horror. thats protestant self-flagellation, the cult of raising awareness. this frustrates me a great deal as a political organizer. what i want from this thread is the same as i want from every thread in cspam: go outside. get organized, get involved. devote yourself toward undermining bourgeois rule and creating self-propagating institutions to empower and protect workers.

it is not sufficient to stop at "being informed", no matter how much knowledge you gain. if you feel strongly about the death of the planet and remain at home posting about it and nothing else, you are bitch made and will be my servant in the afterlife.

to be clear nobody is going to be probed or banned for being negative about the climate. i meant what i said in the SAD thread, that i read a lot of this thread yesterday and it is pretty much cspam standard stuff that is fine, and you all mocked the lovely posts that were quoted in the SAD thread when they were posted. if you feel the urge to roleplay as kefka however please go to gamefaqs or something instead of posting here.

It's unironically very creepy that there's a brigade of people who do this here. Like it legit freaked me out when I realized people were doing it with the COVID thread, but I guess that's what I get for staying out of the hell forums.

"Della? Take a lid"
It's consent-making via concern trolling par excellence.

Quoting Tony in the OP makes that obvious when thread regulars are already actually concerned about Tony and have addressed him with sincerity, directly in the thread.

Obviously "anime villain speeches" aren't destroying the mental health of, or winning the agreement of, posters outside this thread or even within it. At least, not without counterbalance.

Most people (?) in this thread don't agree with my anti-natalism stance - same one I've had and posted for like five or six years - or general doom, I feel. So, what?, if you hold a minority opinion you have to shut up?

That is by and large the modus of this particular posting cadre, yes. Complete with offsite discord organization and keeping notes on particular users. It is unfortunate that they continue to be tolerated rather than ramped, and instead have seen years of success after success using this tactic to shut down threads / posters whom they don't agree with. It is at times deeply uncomfortable to share an online space with individuals who would fit in on KiwiFarms and most certainly had active accounts there.

Having been foiled with their concern trolling, the next tactic will be a return to drowning the thread in white noise posting to prevent any discussion moving forwards, in the hopes the thread is gassed due to low quality.
