    Warning: comment includes heavy slurs

    spoiler

    “Today I want to tell you peasants, that there is no place for racism, sexism and patriarchy in our church. We embrace all human beings. And also fagg°ts and n!ggers and mull@hs. We especially embrace beautiful nude small boys!”

    the Catholic Church, probably

    Edit: Deleted for now, cause I can’t figure out how to warn alert my comment.

    Edit 2: I think I got it now. Please let me know in case it doesn’t work.


  • Incredible poor title. OP please add a sentence or two explaining the article.

    I’ll start of doing that so other people don’t need to blindly click on a link that could be anything.

    It’s about a welsh coal mine that got closed (not sure if because of environmental reasons or because of less demand) and then after rains turned into a toxic lake.

    Article is questioning if the toxic lake and coal imports are any improvement environmentally compared to extracting coal locally.

    I think it’s not asking the right questions. So there is a toxic lake now and maybe it’s worse than a coal mine, but that shouldn’t lead to the conclusion that the coal mine was maybe less bad. Instead it should come to the conclusion that companies need to be held responsible and can’t just abandon sites like that. Maybe they need to fill in some land or I don’t know, but their mess is their responsibility in my opinion.


  • I haven’t read the article. Dumb question anyway. Yes, AMOC is approaching a tipping point, that science has been public since years. Yes, AMOC has already slowed down some dozen or more per cent.

    And while we here answering the same questions as always: yes the climate is changing, yes climate change is also occuring naturally, however this one is human made and yes, the outlook isn’t good at all. No, we shouldn’t continue burning fossil fuels to feed our energy hunger and yes, we need to do something now or better yeaterday. And no, asking repetitive questions isn’t action enough.

    Edit: excuse me. I got a little emotional. Education about climate change is good. I’m just a little tired of reading the same stuff since decades I guess, while at the same time we continue to burn more and more fossil fuels.

    Another update: Interesting Youtube video about this topic.


  • From the article:

    In 2020, new regulations required the shipping industry to use cleaner fuels that reduce sulfur emissions. Sulfur compounds in the atmosphere are reflective and influence several properties of clouds, thereby having an overall cooling effect. Preliminary estimates of the impact of these rules show a negligible effect on global mean temperatures — a change of only a few hundredths of a degree. But reliable assessments of aerosol emissions rely on networks of mostly volunteer-driven efforts, and it could be a year or more before the full data from 2023 are available.


  • I hope I just had bad experience, but I have the aqua with backlight. About 2 years in, the display got terrible; hardly any contrast, especially in the edges. About 3 years in, the rubber buttons just crumbled away; so no more waterproof.

    Can’t read anyways anymore, the contrast by now is like egg white on snow white. Didn’t mistreat, it was always stored dry and in no direct sunlight.
