Reply to Wild bears population size across the US and the EU. The US has 340 000 wild bears (300 000 Black bears, 33 000 Brown/Grizzly bears, 7 000 Polar bears). The EU has 15 500 wild bears (zero Black bears, 15 500 Brown/Grizzly bears, zero Polar bears). 2008-2022 data 🇺🇸🇪🇺🗺 [OC] by maps_us_eu
Ya I dunno who came up with this but this data doesn’t exist. It’s really hard to even make a reasonable guess about these numbers and it’s deceptive to present them as factual data. Second, Wyoming obviously has a lot of bears both grizzly and black.

If I'm not mistaken, there is a town/village in Alaska where it is illegal to lock your car because people have to be able to escape wandering polar bears at a moment's notice.
I do not sign up to live there.

Good grief! Now, I’m worried about seeing 10,000 bears out my window some morning!

It would be interesting to see Canada, as Alaska in consideration to land is pretty similar in the northern reaches.

Yeahhh. Very much bear country in all the national forests here.
Even easy hikes along the edges of Medicine Bow are riddled with aspens covered in bear claw scoring. And those are like 5 miles from the nearest towns, not at all remote.

Thanks for that, great graphic. Why did you choose exactly these 10 countries to be named specifically? Also sad that so much money is spent on military.

Missiles aren't that effective for defense. You can buy 100 million bullets for the price of 1 missile.

I assume they mean during the big conflicts because armies would be levied and trained specifically for conflicts instead of having standing armies. It's not absurd to think that during the napoleanic wars, the prussian expansion wars, and german unification wars that countries would be spending that much of their GDP. In peacetime though, i highly doubt it. Even during the naval revolution from 1860(ish) on through WW1 i doubt it reached 30% GDP, even the Royal Navy.

>Ketchup packs are just too small and not worth even trying to recycle, inceneration is the best way to dispose of it.
Good point.
>With the proper configuration and air filtration there is no environmental impact for the process
Very true, should've mentioned that.
>And the milk boxes are made of Tetra Pak, which is recyclable.
Did not know that. Cool. So whatever you buy your milk in, it's recyclable lol.
