There’s a climate change skeptic subreddit. On there, they keep sharing sea level monitors that show little to no change. I wish someone had a good retort to their data.

Interesting, so do you believe Zeus is the almighty king of the gods, and we should sacrifice goats to him?

I was wondering if it would work if they played with a bong instead.

> Although the cause is still uncertain, the result starved the Earth's oceans of oxygen for nearly half a million years, causing the extinction of approximately 27 percent of marine invertebrates, including certain planktic and benthic foraminifera, mollusks, bivalves, dinoflagellates and calcareous nannofossils.[16] The global environmental disturbance that resulted in these conditions increased atmospheric and oceanic temperatures.

Residential and transportation represents 53% of energy consumption. Add in commercial use and the total is 65%. Industry is not dominating the numbers.
All of these uses could be dramatically decreased simply by drilling less, digging less, and increasing the costs of fossil fuels via taxes. It’s the simple answer that nobody wants to hear. Everyone wants to just blame an evil corporation instead of making moderate sacrifices.

Reply to comment by sufferinsucatash in A study in the US has found, compared to unvaccinated people, protection from the risk of dying from COVID during the six-month omicron wave for folks who had two doses of an mRNA vaccine was 42% for 40- to 59-year-olds; 27% for 60- to 79-year-olds; and 46% for people 80 and older. by Wagamaga
Pre vaccine vs post vaccine. It amazes me how quickly people forgot about the overflowing morgues and the bodies piled up in the street.

Do all you want to help, and some corporation will still dump 1000 lifetimes of pollution into the environment in one day. This is a problem that individuals have no control over.

How many left leaning democrats criticized Biden’s tapping into the strategic oil reserve to lower gas prices instead of celebrating the decreased global oil supply?

Yes. Religions are usually centered around fear and conformity. If you go your whole life believing in something as deep as the answer to life itself, it would probably be extremely traumatic to suddenly find out it's not true. I remember the day I decided I didn't believe in God anymore. It was honestly pretty scary. Fortunately, this happened when I was a teenager and I couldn't quite grasp the insanity of it all. I can't really imagine doing it as an adult. Not to mention the social repercussions.

Biden is moderate. With enough left leaning democrats in office this wouldn't occur. It's a straw man argument.

You are right about what and by whom it needs to be done.
My point is that neither individuals nor the companies will do that unless the government creates programs and laws that would enforce and facilitate the process. And it’s not just about writing the law. It’s about finding the way all the undertakings can really be implemented.
Also, when I mentioned recycling, I meant exactly what you are saying. That recycling does almost nothing to prevent the climate change.

I agree. Some things are just too much to handle. It's often not worth the pain. Curiosity is driven by a reward/risk ratio. I can't say I wouldn't want to just ignore it and put the past behind me either.

The study doesn't say, but I'm wondering if since it's an observational study, they estimated total mg of caffeine per day and divided by 100 to get cups. But it's weird that they specify Italian espresso specifically and you're right that an espresso shot has about 60-65mg so it would be about 1.5 shots per cup.
