- XorNot 10mo agoSeriously this: smoke stacks are a carefully engineered structure specially to ensure air emissions diffuse and don't roll along the ground. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnYdt4T76mk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnYdt4T76mk You absolutely cannot park a bunch of truck mounted generators next to an existing plant and go "yeah it won't make a difference".
- rossjudson 10mo agoOnce, when I was a child, I remember the carefully engineered smoke stacks in Sudbury Ontario spilling out acrid smoke sideways, and then straight down into the town. Back then, Sudbury looked like Mars.
- black_puppydog 10mo agoSo you're saying when not done properly, emissions have very direct negative impact on the surrounding community. Did I get that right?
- Xss3 10mo agoNo theyre saying that since that day everyone has given up and nothing matters anymore. We all collectively decided that it is OKAY and didnt change a single thing since.
