How green are biofuels? Scientists are at loggerheads
Replacing gasoline with ethanol has changed landscapes across the globe.

also, @johnbryanpeters , your post had me questionning some old held beliefs... I'd thought that line of inquiry you brought up has been widely accepted for at least 20 years... I'm going from memory here, and haven't taken the time to do research, but I seem to recall the EU banned the use of biofuels derived from crops a while back because of its environmental impact, and the US stopped subsidizing production of bioethanol from corn for the same reasons... Most talk of biofuels nowadays (at least in OECD coutries) is focused on use of "waste" feedstock (e.g forestry byproducts), or renewable energy. Have a look here at the "sustainability frameworks' section here: https://www.iea.org/reports/biofuels and maybe at this too... https://www.ieabioenergy.com/blog/publications/new-publication-comparison-of-biofuel-life-cycle-analysis-tools-biochemical-2g-ethanol-production-and-distribution/

How does this work exactly?
But government agencies, relying on the results of economic models, concluded that those costs would be modest, and that replacing gasoline with ethanol or biodiesel would help to meet greenhouse gas reduction goals.
We really need to talk about the egregious per capita carbon output of canadians and australians
So wasteful.
The tricky task of tallying carbon
To slow or stop global warming, the world agrees it must cut carbon dioxide emissions. But monitoring each nation’s output of greenhouse gases is not always straightforward.

Alaska snow crab season canceled as officials investigate disappearance of an estimated 1 billion crabs
An estimated 1 billion crabs have mysteriously disappeared from Alaskan waters in two years, officials said.

I read somewhere, but haven't confirmed, that king crab was also canceled. I don't care for snow-crab, too small and too much effort for the meat, but I love me some king crab. Dungeonous tastes like dirt to me. I can buy king crab from the Norton Sound (real, not the make believe restaurant) seafood company in town for a decent amount. I can get it in Nome, AK for about the same price when I travel there for work, just get a box of frozen king and it's part of my checked luggage with Alaska Air. That's one of the perks for traveling to Nome. The fishery is by guys that walk out on the ice, cut a hole, drop a line, catch some crabs and take them back to processing.First they (Global Warming) came for the Snow Crabs, but I'm from Bleed-more and only eat MD [well Gulf TX these days] Blue Crabs / crabcakes so I didn't care...

Some of the most private jet hopping, alps skiing, hampton house weekending, selfish assholes on the planet are pRoUd lIBeRaLs, just because theres an easy template to look down on poor white trash who lack their urban sophistication.
The whole idea of carbon credits, cap and and trade etc is just to create a guilt free illusion for highly consumptive douchebags to keep being some of the worst polluters.
Neoliberal just means 80s conservative.

"The "Forever" Diamond Battery: It's Radioactive and Runs for 28,000 Years
The batteries could be an effective way to recycle dangerous nuclear waste.
How does that even work? Assuming they're using spent rods, uranium offputs cesium isotopes for about 30 years (the low end of their range) with plutonium going that 28,000 years, but each puts off a different product I thought, neither particularly related to producing current.If this proves viable, it could be a it of a game changer in some segments.

Found some reference of france generating electricity with this stuff but not in a portable battery format.
Sometimes I agree with @kidwoo about just killing mfs.
From today’s White House briefing: “Under President Biden, oil and natural gas production has increased, and we are on track to hit the highest production in our country’s history next year.”
Utterly tragic for the Earth and our future. Make DC a glass carpark.

More federal money for cops too
There is no left opposition to fascism in america. At least not one with any political significance. We have reganomics from the supposed left which only in contrast seems like the 'sane' option. What claims to be the left does shit like this this just to try and appeal to the fucking insane who reside across the isle.

Biden ain't no lib. Slightly right of your centre by the looks of things.
Always make me chuckle when the US goes on about Cons vs Libs.
In a good chunk of the developed democratic world your Lib Demoncrats are right of centre.

Biden is absolutely the quintessential American Liberal. Bested only by someone like his VP who manages a level of condescending smug the old man can't quite muster. Helps that she was also prosecutor making sure the poors stayed that way.
You're absolutely correct but right of center is liberalism, or more to the point neoliberalism in this joint. Fuckwits that were horribly programmed in the regan and clinton years to think rampant capitalism is good, cops to keep it safe are good, and so are wars whenever the fuel of capitalism is in danger.
This is a great example

Rather spend money to keep people from eating than spend that money on just feeding them.
Traveling thousands of miles and spending thousands of dollars to put on pink hats just to go neener neener to a new trump administration with literally zero policy followup is another one.
We really showed'em!!
Remember the big movement following that to codify Roe v. Wade into legislation so the thing everyone knew was going to happen didn't happen? Me neither.
Feckless, useless, ineffective milqutoast losers that use the language of leftism to institute 80s righwing outcomes. That's liberalism in america. Biden sums that up perfectly and deserves the label.
