If you want to be afraid of a supervolcano erupting, Mount Aso in Japan just got it's alert level raised. If it does erupt it's probably just going to be a small eruption like all the ones in the last few years, but it's at least an eruption! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brukidi09ZU

actionjackson posted:will there be much warning before the yellowstone caldera happens? probably at least a few weeks of "oh poo poo this things about to pop," on top of years or decades of uplift that would have been closely monitored. Yellowstone is one of the most closely monitored volcanoes on the planet. Worth noting that it has actually erupted a few times since its last supereruption, ~70,000 years ago being the most recent eruption https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/when-was-last-time-yellowstone-erupted TeenageArchipelago has issued a correction as of 21:42 on Feb 28, 2022 |

so did anyone else chew on styrofoam cups as a kid? Every once in a while I remember doing that and realize why I am bad at posting e: to be clear, I'm not saying that I went out and grabbed styrofoam cups just to chew on them. I mean more like "I was at an event with my parents, got bored after I finished eating, and bit chunks off of the cup because I was a bored 5 year old" TeenageArchipelago has issued a correction as of 02:46 on Mar 31, 2022 |

sitting awake at night, telling myself that the reason that there are no bugs on my windshield after an 87 hour drive is because my F250 is more aerodynamic than cars 20 years ago I remember going to visit my grandparents growing up, which was a ~6 hour drive on the freeway, and my dad always having to get out to clean the bugs off of the windshield when we stopped for gas. I don't remember ever really having to do the same since I started driving. Sure, some of that is the aerodynamics of a minivan vs a sedan, but I don't think that that is everything

I saw someone point out that if we could run everything in reverse, i.e. having cars that sucked CO2 out of the air, dropping it off at gas stations, where it was mixed with other materials and pumped into the ground, the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere would be a problem of such immense scale that it would still take decades to fix They wrote it better, but still

I don't know if this was posted in the thread, but it was an interesting video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX2aZUav-54 basically, the natural gas industry realized that the only thing that people even vaguely liked about natural gas was gas stoves, so they have a whole push to promote gas stoves to ensure that the gas infrastructure gets built into new buildings and lets people use natural gas heating/water heaters

going to hold them to account by being really really upset with them after they died at the end of a long life full of opulent wealth. Going to write in history books that the guy who died a 95 year old in a $50 million dollar home was a bad dude, who was no good. He didn't even know how to make mac n cheese, his private chef took care of that, the scoundrel that's how we will get back at those who fight against a livable future

I remember seeing something in this thread about how warming on land is roughly double what the numbers are overall, i.e. at 2c global warming, that translates to an average of 4c warming on land, with warming over water being lower. Is that right?
