Wow I really hope I did not come off as defending sexual harassers in any way. I think many might have thought this because of my last paragraph which seems troll-like. I can assure you I don't defend that behavior and am not trolling.

I'm curious why you think I am making this up. Testosterone is linked with higher levels of aggression. Anyone who is employed to write code and work with computers works a sedentary job. I don't think it is a ridiculous notion th

You are comparing perp w/ victim stats. You are also comparing female victimization rates w/ Google's population (only 30% female, even less in higher levels where most of these 48 get dismissed from). I also think there are

I think you'll find that most people who dislike ICE do so because they are opposed to the acts they are designed to carry out (i.e., deportations). In this very thread, you have declared opposition to deportations. And regarding AWS,

Because most CO2 emissions are from industry, not humans, per capita statistics mean very little (especially since these industries ship their products globally). Per capita statistics are championed by industry because they shift blame to

That study starts with the ridiculous assumption of a 3.6 -7.9% leak rate in fracked gas. By their own admission, the data they used was spotty for leak rates during drill completion, and transport. Study is also outdated (2011) with regar

I don't think anyone in their right minds believes that fighting CC is going to be a profitable venture at all. The point is it will take co-operation and investment by governments worldwide. It's also important to note that the g

Carbon Engineering should be focusing on capture and sequestration, not this synthesized fuel BS. Air-To-fuel is not and will never be their moneymaker. The synthesized fuel is not in demand and probably was thought of by a board member who

Yeah - no. Coal CO2 emissions are almost double natgas' [1]. While it is true that natgas is mainly CH4, a highly potent GG, its atmospheric lifetime is about 8 yrs. Further, the only way the methane would be getting into the air is vi

The whole field is full of dogmatists. The timeline of human history probably looks a lot different than the one we have written in textbooks. _But_, take any of Graham Hancock's claims with a spoon-full of salt. He's not from a s
