More pirates vs pirates memes when it should be pirates vs executives

This is why groups like Extinction Rebellion are so important. They use non-violent protests to get massive participation and awareness, which in turn gives the politicians an issue they have to take a side on.

But I wonder how long this can last until violent protests, or even revolutions start?

And remember, biking or walking is no more environmentally sound - per person-km travelled, using a typical western diet - than a fuel-efficient automobile with a single passenger

That's not right. This studyabout biking vs driving with different diets. inflates the carbon output for bikers by subtracting the calories for car drivers, but not for bicyclists.

It assumes too much and is so generalized nothing can really be gleaned from the findings.

Walking and biking are more environmentally sound than driving

Not everyone drives a "fuel-efficient" car (25 mpg according to the article), in fact the most popular car being sold are Ford F150s with mpg around 15-20. And even mpg is not a constant if you consider traffic or inclination.

I 100% agree that the wealthy are killing us much much faster.

Heatwaves like these always happen in south European countries during July, nothing new>

Ah right. Guess that hottest temp ever recorded last week was nothing to be concerned about.

Just a climate troll doing your thing based on your comment history.

I think the benefits of going high speed rail now would outweigh the negatives of upgrading at a later point.

What are some open source projects that I could use instead?

Mycelium is pretty rad stuff. Strong, sustainable, degradeable, and is a carbon vacuum.

 

Ahoy!

With the DDG browser out, it got me thinking as to what extensions others use for privacy either on chromium or firefox?

 

I'm a little overwhelmed, and don't know where to start tbh
