I know what you mean. It just depends on the person. I work in healthcare and I see people pretty young (60’s) in such poor health that can barely walk and can’t take care of themselves. I think about how difficult the rest of their lives will be. My grandma lived alone in her own home doing everything on her own until she was 94 years old. She died at home with my parents taking care of her. She suddenly started deteriorating around age 94. My parents took care of her for about four months (with the help of hospice) and she died at home. I want to live like her and die at home with family like her.

Free and unaccountable. Most* tree planting programs are like drugs off the web. You never know if they’ll just make things worse.

That's even funnier, I read it afterwards. There is no way they are getting ton of methanol for around 100 bucks, so it's BS anyways.

They stole the land near where I grew up to use for a Japanese internment camp despite the tribe the land belonged to specifically telling them they would have no part in genociding another group the way they were genocided. The government originally "asked" to use the land, and when that was refused, they did it anyway.

Practically speaking trees won't grow fast enough to offset our emissions. We would need to plant 200 billion trees to stop climate change.

Further development of this technology depends on if the byproducts could be used as a fuel. /s

I am not an elder or anything, but from what I was taught, it isn’t incorrect, but also it is sort of a shorthand, you know? Putting it that way is just a really good way of simplifying it at all without having to go into the whole structure of traditional society and myth, the different gender roles and the somewhat thorny issue of sexuality, how it all interacts with colonization/history, etc.

While an accurate representation of events, that changes the emphasis of the story. Instead of remarking on the achievement of the speaker it remarks on the actions of the council.

And any council leaders corrupt enough to get into bed with them.
