Reply to [OC] How Expensive is Mobile Data in LatAm? by latinometrics

Don't mean to criticize you but doesn't seem accurate to me, in Argentina for that price you'd get 2GB or more, anyways there are different packs, combos, promotions and crap so you can't measure it properly, but I seriously doubt it's same price as Ireland, you'd also had to take the correct price to convert from ARS to USD which I doubt you've done since that isn't the official one you'd find in Google.

And mainly that, we're a hard countries to measure and compare economic numbers, and tbh I think thats done on purpose by our beautiful government

Oh yeah, and speeds and service quality is different too (of course worse in LATAM)

Reply to comment by InfiniteDuckling in [OC] Gobal CO2 emission per income group 1750-2021 by albymana

No, wood burning only releases the CO2 that the tree absorbed from the air during its lifetime, which was mostly going back into the air anyway if it rots. It's the carbon cycle, whereas if you dig up coal that's carbon captured by plants that got buried long ago, so it adds to the carbon in the atmosphere now. If you want trees to sequester more carbon you can cut them down and build stuff that will last a long time, and that leaves room for a new tree and carbon stored in a useful form.
