No. Put a cold thing into something hotter and the thing will heat up without cooling.

> There isn't a divine commandment as to what rights we "should" have. We vote, fight, protest and get to make up our own rights. Not in America. The only venue to change you have is to spend, or not spend money somewhere.

Considering the length and tone of the comments in this thread, I don’t think it is the people you call “you people” that are triggered.

The concentration of CO2 is measured in parts per million. Just that simple fact make me believe it is very unlikely there ever is going to be economical to extract CO2 from the atmosphere at any significant scale.

Rain in the face has honestly never bothered me. Somewhere between -5 and -10 degrees C I replace my bicycle helmet with a ski helmet and ski goggles. Somewhere there I also start wearing a baklava.

I’ve bicycled (on a normal purely human powered bicycle before I got kids) all year round in Scandinavia (and Michigan) in both small and bigger cities for decades. I’ve been neither cold or wet very often. It’s not particularly hard to dre

I use an electric cargo bike. It's a really expensive one that cost almost $7000. You can get a perfectly usable one for less than half that price. I use it for what most people use their car for in 90% of their trips, including pickin

I thought it was a quite natural assumption, considering the same brake friction force and that the work done by that is the force times the distance. (W = Fs).

My favourite example of that is retired physics professors who assume economics must be easy compared to physics and write opinion pieces about how the country should be run (and make first year economics student errors).

No, that is not true. But not all bioplastics are biodegradable.

Of course it is. And while it is of course is good that we don’t pump more fossil fuels from the ground to us as raw materials, the rest is very much the same as normal plastics. Most isn’t compostable, and some are even harder to recycle (

That is how it works in Sweden. The companies are responsible for collecting and recycling the packaging materials.

If cars weren’t so ubiquitous otherwise in society, it would probably require several months of training to be licensed to drive a car in the workplace. And then you wouldn’t be allowed to drive faster than 15 mph except in special fenced i

What I find most striking is that people with very rudimentary training are allowed to use machinery of 1.5 tons and more, in public, in the vicinity of unprotected bystanders. This leads to about 43,000 deaths per year in the US alone. And

So the fighters in Syria are more discriminatory when they kill than the IDF. It’s a well known fact that Israel is limiting information coming out from Gaza. If all the reports about their indiscriminate killings were false, wouldn’t it be

Gaza’s population is very young, so these numbers reflect the demographics. If anything, it shows that Israel is indiscriminate in its killing in Gaza. Bombs tend to be that way. But of course, we don’t know what and who to trust. Maybe we
