Scikar posted:London has the lowest level of car ownership in the country. Purely by coincidence*, it also has vastly superior public transport than the rest of the country. You don't have to build a single tunnel or even anything at all in London, just put actual buses, trams and cycle lanes in every other major city and you'd already cut half the cars we need. London is also the place with the highest per capita footprint in the UK. https://www.carbonbrief.org/city-of-london-tops-uk-carbon-footprint-list quote:When the researchers compared the factors behind high carbon footprints, they found people’s lifestyle had the biggest effect, while things like being urban or rural, or the distance from industry were less important.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Based on 2004 figures. Still point I was after was what the researchers concluded that lifestyle matters more than location in taming your footprint. There was a 2011 study in Finland showing similar results as well, people in the Helsinki Metro Area (equivalent to the london metro area I guess) had the highest per capita footprints. Again their lifestyles were the cause, more consumption and more travel. People elsewhere had less money and consumed less and traveled abroad less, this was enough for their capita emissions to be lower despite traveling more in a car or having a house to heat. This is why I believe a 4 day work week, insititued on an EU level, would be one of the most immediately effective ways of reducing our CO2 footprint quickly. As well as increase our life quality.

Another Mark Blyth video, I have to say I'm not really following his logic re Corbyn and why an election after hard brexit means a sure win for Johnsson. I wonder if it stems from his homebrew idea that Corbyn never wanted to be PM. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW90T7ZB7L4

Though I also think we as a society, have been fed an story about what a good life entails that doesn't really work, which makes a lot of people miserable even though they are successful by modern standards.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:Mushrooms don't operate on the regular good<--->bad scale, you gotta narrow it down a bit Oh the stenmurkla. Note to thread, this one is dangerous, a single mushroom is enough to kill you. Boiling (thrice) has been traditionally used to make it safe though lately many consider it simply inedible nowadays, because it has killed experienced people even though they prepared it correctly. I read a personal account of one who had eaten it for 30 years and still got poisoned one day, later he found out the toxin concentration can vary immensely between individual mushrooms and so some can be dangerous even though they have been treated. Even in non lethal doses the toxin is a carcinogen too.

The best sandwich is the one you want right now. A solid contender for top 10 status in my book would be rye bread, butter and smoked ham. A simple finnish classic.  Edit:

This is actually what I did, mopped up the remaining vinaigrette with the pieces of bread, if nothing else they would have become bread crumbs, I don't like waste either. osker posted:Hold up, you clearly got a chef knife. That should've been sufficient to make this sandwich yet I see a mandolin, an egg slicer, and two cutting boards. How are we going to usher in full communism with you clearly hogging all the means of production? Did you use a spoon to scoop the bread? Two bowls? What do you need that fork for? What can I say, I've amassed some stuff over the years. A lot of my stuff is bought 2nd hand, some were gifts, the big cutting board was a hand me down from my grandmother and is over 20 years old, the other wooden cutting boards I have made myself as I have my own means of production out back.

Ebola Dog posted:What's a good waffle batter recipe? Got a waffle maker but have struggled to find a good recipe that works with it. The one I used: 100g melted butter 300ml flour 1 teaspoon baking powder pinch of salt 400ml milk. I found I had to add more milk to get the right consistency, might have been because it uses volume for the flour instead of weight.
