Forgive me Father, for I have sinned, I took a sip of soda and used a plastic straw.
"We need to move away from coal, oil, and gas and phase out nuclear," Castro said. "Nuclear is definitely preferable when it comes to carbon emissions versus those other three and the way that I think about it is, sort of the worst-first approach to working on immediately getting the worst of the types of energy that produces carbon emissions out first."
Nuclear Power in the USA. The USA is the world's largest producer of nuclear power, accounting for more than 30% of worldwide nuclear generation of electricity. The country's nuclear reactors produced 807 billion kWh in 2018, about 20% of total electrical output. There are two reactors under construction.
BRADBOOK: “And what that means is we need a lot of human labor. So humanity has to rise up in a really beautiful way and tend to the damage that we’ve done. And that means all of us, it’s all of us together in the places that the Earth is going to sustain life working together, to re-wild areas, to restore ecosystems, to clean up the rivers ,to plant trees, to basically sort the plastic out in the ocean and so on. And I actually think there are so many beautiful innovations out there and humanity could do that together and it needs all of us. For me this is part of re-weaving a human family back together again. It’s part of dealing with systemic racism, white supremacy and the wounds of patriarchy that want to separate us, make us feel powerless and destroy our togetherness and make us think that the whole planet is kind of scarce when actually nature is abundant and it replenishes itself.”
According to satellite monitoring by the NOAA, the US has reduced carbon emissions over the last 40 years more than any other developed country.
Quote from: pianoman9701 on October 02, 2019, 07:29:24 AMAccording to satellite monitoring by the NOAA, the US has reduced carbon emissions over the last 40 years more than any other developed country. NOAA is a reputable source. What else do they have to say about climate change?
NOAA claims January-October was the second hottest on record in the US, and that the US is getting much hotter.. . .Their actual thermometer data shows that January-October was sixth warmest after 2012, 1921, 1934, 1938 and 1998. There has been no January-October warming over the last 80-90 years.
Yep, Brazil has something like 3x the amount of cattle that we do, Inda more than twice and China about 50% more; but until recently the cattle issue was only pointed at the US. Brazil started getting some flak last year due to clearing land for more cattle--which the climate crowd was saying were record wildfires in the Amazon, but were really slash burning to promote grazing.
