If you don’t understand by now, nothing I say will help.

Rotting in the ground releases the CO2.
That's what most people don't understand about wood. It's part of the carbon cycle. Unlike fossil fuels, you aren't adding to the carbon cycle.
The big issue with wood is it's not sustainable at scale, sure there is a climate impact, but not at the level of Fossil fuels.
I was reading a study however, saying that, if properly done, a single acre of land could provide enough wood to heat a home indefinitely, I don't recall the details past that though.

In the far distant future, the stars are long forgotten memories and the eternal winter of the universe sets in, poor Phil be condemned to wander the frozen rock that was Earth for all eternity.

Please provide data for PA.
My point still largely stands, those of us who need to cut every cost we can, tend to be renters, and we have no path to home ownership.

> I'm probably just a bit sentimental about wood.
Burning wood is the worst method to heat if you care about global warming.
Wood is literally made from co2 captured out of the atmosphere. You can make things out of it. You can let it rot in the ground. But don't burn it.

> as most people rent now
68% own 32% rent
That's not most.

again, avoiding the question, what is Groundhog Day hurting? Please answer, because you're avoiding the question, which I wouldn't consider very useful to the examination of this thread. And I don't watch network TV but thanks for assuming!

If your name is Phil, do you marry someone named Phyllis?

Reply to comment by paintedwoodpile in Pa. drillers abandoned thousands of natural gas wells in 5 years, ignored state law, report says by WITFnews
It's always cheaper. Just another thing that Pennsylvania citizens will have to front the bill to fix. First it was oil drilling and coal mining that we have to clean up. Next is natural gas wells.

Ah, yes. The uselessness of an examined life. I bet you enjoy network TV.

you're avoiding the question, what is a few hours once a year hurting? what do you suggest we do for fun aside from entertainment? We all need escapes from the world, and this is one of them. stop trying to be so philosophical and just enjoy life lol

Or you know we could come together to address the hurt our vapidness and obsession with entertainment causes. But nah, that wouldn’t be fun.

My English teacher in high school grew up in punxy and his family had a bunch of groundhogs living in a purpose built basement. These groundhogs would rotate out which one was living at the library as “Phil”. He said that his friends would come over and everyone would play with all the Phil’s in the basement growing up. I always thought it was best because I never thought about Phil in the off days and the prolonged life of him/them.

I don't honestly know if Henry Cavill can pull off the groundhog-esque features required in the remake. I guess we'll have to see how their makeup team does the effects.
