Its not about O2, is about an excess of CO2. All of these schemes about CO2 capture don't make sense atmospherically (we're physically digging out too much carbon to put it back into the ground economically) - But CO2 capture make

CO2 and PM2.5 require different sensors, so buyers need to be very cautious that their model explicitly includes both, and states CO2 as a ppm value. Costs are about $70. They're also available on AliExpress.

These higher CO2 levels (890ppm) are already a problem indoors. Ventilation systems become less effective as outdoor CO2 levels increase. Many houses and apartments around the world have no ventilation systems at all. Its... mind boggling,

Cryptocurrencies need to be banned to help stop these attacks. If corporations in the West cannot buy the coins legally, they will not be able to pay the ransoms, and the attack frequency and intensity will fall. On top of that, we'll

Cap and trade adds a huge regulatory and bureaucratic burden to what should be a simple price signal (maybe that's the purpose?) For example in the EU, the carbon price had fallen too low, so credits were arbitrarily pulled out of the

Any climate policy other than a carbon tax (with tariffs on goods from non-participating countries) is going to be a failure - it will be shot through with loopholes and rebates, such that little reduction is actually achieved.

There are 241 coal power plants in the USA. Get 50 people chained up in front of the gates, and stop workers and coal coming in. Maintain this human blockade until the last coal power plant is shut down. Ignore arrests and ignore the police

There's a simpler change than just banning: Start now, with all vehicles priced at over $150,000, and reduce that threshold by $10,000 each year. This forces the tech to be implemented in the biggest and most profitable vehicles, befor

The solutions to climate change are not technical, they are political. Call politicians, protest, raise funds, join a party, become a politician yourself. With just a $20 carbon tax we basically end coal, which is about 40% of our global em

Its grimly humorous that we need to upgrade hardware security because of ransomware - enabled by cryptocurrency. But we can't do that - we have widespread shortages of new chip components because so much capacity is being dedicated to

Providing retirees with cash, which they then use to independently procure good and services across millions of individuals, is fundamentally inefficient. Instead, we should treat each retiree as a ward of the state, and provide them with G

When Crypto mining leads to shortages of computer chips and electricity, and widespread ransomware, it is most definitely not 'opt-in'.

The State can be replaced democratically. Crypto is full of pump and dump and exit scams. Bitcoin et al are also algorithmically supply inelastic. As demand for the coins decreases (due to the inability to actually buy them), the price will

Its great to see Governments finally acting against Crypto. The technology will float around, but the actual formal legal exchange of fiat for crypto should be banned. This will indirectly disable Ransomware, since businesses will not be ab

Those places have payroll taxes in the realm of 30-70%, and high progressive income taxes. The overall labour cost is similar. American developers are just lucky that they live in a low-tax society.
