JAY ZERO SUM GAME posted:I e seen so little written reporting about it. I have no idea what happened, the response, etc beyond these couple videos yeah it's incredible that a city of like 1 million people was massively destroyed and narely a blipp[ then again we also had flooding in Pakistan that displaced tens(?) of millions of people and also no one outside this thread heard about it. just par for the course i suppose

Nah, in the mainstream Pakistan and Mexico and Greece were a secondary or tertiary human interest story for a day, but there's been no follow ups and it's definitely blink and you'll miss it.Nichael posted:82 f on oct 28th in Wilmington de today. very normal! places that aren't CA continue to suffer and CA continues to be awesome this year given how great it's been an ARKstorm this winter would be pure karma and I won't be able to complain if it happens

Jizzny Princess posted:https://twitter.com/EliotJacobson/status/1718244776871703004 the actual paper is open access and does discuss US and Canadian sites a lot too: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-37276-4  quote:The CSP/FCSI dataset as of January 2021 shows about 8000 individual contaminated sites for Alaska and about 22,000 contaminated sites for Canada. About 18% (~3600) of these sites are located in permafrost dominated areas. Approximately 30% of the surveyed contaminated sites in the investigated permafrost domain of the North American continent are considered active, meaning that cleanup has not yet been completed or the status of the contamination has yet to be clarified. While the CSP and FCSI data provide relatively consistent information on site and treatment status, the two databases differ greatly in terms of information on industrial origin, historical record, and financial costs associated with site management. Therefore, we combine the two datasets only to analyze the spatial correlation between industrial sites and the occurrence of contaminated sites. A detailed analysis of toxic substances and their industrial origins focuses exclusively on the Alaskan data.

The Vinja Ninja posted:You can tell the map is wrong as Nome has no toxic sites when gold miners and the military dumped tons of waste directly in town. I think that's because Nome lies outside of the >50% permafrost occurrence probability region so they didnt include it in the paper. the source of their data, the Alaska CSP lists 225 sites in the Nome borough: https://dec.alaska.gov/Applications...ItemsPerPage=10 with examples like this one: quote:Site in and near village was used by the Army, Air Force and Navy from 1948 and abandoned in 1950s. The majority of contaminants were petroleum in soils. There were also low level PCBs and dioxins. Buried debris which occasionally surfaces from erosion or new construction has been a problem in the community. Unexploded ordnance reportedly buried near or in Troutman Lake. The investigation did not locate any ammo caches. See Facility Wide Site for complete action list. Site 18 at the northeast end of Troutman Lake inbetween the Municipal Building and the school. An investigation in 1994 didn't detect contamination over cleanup levels. Another investigation was conducted in 2001 due to community concerns. Low level DRO was detected in soil. Free product was observed on the groundwater surface in one well. Fingerprinting determined that the product was from a non weathered modern product so the spill was determined FUDS ineligible. A spill was reported in the area from a pipeline leak in 1997. The Gambell site extends west from North Beach to West Beach, south to Nayvaghaq Lake, and east to include portions of Sevuokuk Mountain. The site encompasses the Village of Gambell. Last staff assigned were Noland, Ortelee, Kalu, Stephens, Rutkowski and Brownlee. (rpltr6)

Dokapon Findom posted:Recall Project Chariot, whereby a deep water port was to be created by "peaceful" nuclear explosions. The project was cancelled but seemingly as if solely to ensure the locals were poisoned anyway, radioactive contaminated soil was trucked in from offsite and dumped in the Alaskan wilderness to determine its long-term health effects on water tables I’ve been reading about the peaceful nukular explosion movement in the fifties and man. I feel like this does get taught in school there’s just no aha moment where you realize just how insane it is. Or maybe I’m thinking of comic books, this gets taught in comic books. Chariot is mind blowing because … well lots of stuff but the ‘well we knew it served no purpose but we were interested in modeling the destruction of local food supply’ and then it gets cancelled because wind patterns wouldn’t gently caress up the land enough. only to truck in a bunch of radioactive dirt and run some tests anyways. cool

In news that is sure to shock everyone in the thread, some media has decided to report on things that Exxon has been openly saying for the last several years to their shareholders.quote:Exxon believes it is swimming with the tide, not against it. The company recognizes that carbon emissions will have to be cut more than two-thirds from their current rate of 37 gigatons annually to 11 gigatons by 2050 in order to limit global warming to 2° C (3.6 ° F)—the limit beyond which global catastrophe looms.

I experienced a new indicator of climate change: a record late appearance of an ice cream truck going down the neighborhood street this weekend. What was once a summertime occurrence is now appearing nearly six weeks into autumn. Sort of like the opposite of an early springtime bloom. It must have been near 80 degrees here in the DMV.
