Controversial General Political Discussion

[notAfanboy]

You guys talk about billionaires taking advantage of this while ignoring big oil funneling billions of dollars all around the globe to prevent governments from taking any real action against fossil fuels and transforming the global power grid into a greener more sustainable one.

They also fall under the billionaire category.
It is business first; some will invest in green technology while others will keep on promoting fossil fuels.
And what "you guys" ?
Talk to me.

Oh!!


I read it...can you share me the full paper and not just description?

And, who peer reviewed it? Please share details of it..


Btw, paper says " it's not exclusive to humans actions and there are also natural factors"

It admits CC is happening...but says not exclusively because of humans.

So, your own source agrees CC is real

 

[NAMELESS]

New topic; the bank of france controls the economies and treasuries of many west African countries.

is this a lingering form of colonialism

we already talk about that a few weeks ago.it seems nobody here cares.@Logiko protest that shit away

 

[Adam 🍎]

yeah but lets get real,finding a way to power everything with solar energy would be a marvel

Why only solar? Hydro and Wind are very good options too. Even nuclear

 

[Toby D. Dog]

Yeah, that's why some people argue that you cant stop it, or they dont support this because their livelihood depend on it. Take this study as an example;


https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/emission-reductions-from-pandemic-had-unexpected-effects-on-atmosphere

The study took a step back to ask what the pandemic could teach about how a lower-emissions future might look and how the world might get there.

Notably, emissions returned to near-pre-pandemic levels by the latter part of 2020, despite reduced activity in many sectors of the economy. The authors reason that this rebound in emissions was probably necessary for businesses and individuals to maintain even limited economic productivity, using the worldwide energy infrastructure that exists today. “This suggests that reducing activity in these industrial and residential sectors is not practical in the short term” as a means of cutting emissions, the study noted. “Reducing these sectors’ emissions permanently will require their transition to low-carbon-emitting technology.”

You as an individual have very little impact over the climate. It’s 7 or 8 companies that are responsible for 80% of global emissions.

nobody here denied its happening

Solar is more accessible to everyone.sunlight is pretty much everywhere and it can be converted into a portable power source,tis already a thing,but not at the escale we need to retire fossyl fuel

It’s a manner of speech, very common in the English language.

You literally denied humans role in it lol

 

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

I really do hope this shit gets closed so we can begin a collective healing process and forget this thread

 

[Adam 🍎]

Sunlight is also most expensive one to build and most polluting one to build

Croatia is majorly fuelled by hydro, wind and nuclear, we have like 2 coal plants operational

nuclear is a double edged sword and nuclear powers comes with the possibility of nuclear weapons too.

 

[SakazOuki]

New topic;

What was the worst atrocity of the 20th century

Leopold II of Belgium and his atrocities in Africa

Solar and hydrogen will get cheaper very quickly in upcoming decades

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Because for many, Internet is a place to have fun and escape life. Without Internet, I wouldn't be alive today.

You just said that very escapism would cost someone their life

 

[TheAncientCenturion]

New topic:

can we judge the past by modern standards?
Should we?

i'm not talking about the tech we have but rather an hypothetical one for the future.brazil uses a lot of hydro and nuclear energy too.

 

[SakazOuki]

Or Mao's mass starvation that killed ten percent of the Chinese population

 

[Adam 🍎]

Not really no, Nuclear weapons are built via dif process by enriching Uraniun while Nuclear powerplants are based on heating water via nuclear reactions - don't quote me on this one

And Nuclear is most safe option
