You are getting mixed up between a personal carbon footprint and a corporate carbon footprint, which should be calculated using primary data according to the GHG Protocol standards: https://ghgprotocol.org/

A corporate carbon footprint isn't a scam if it's calculated using primary data and according to the GHG Protocol standards - https://ghgprotocol.org/

I'd also consider the possibility that the generations-old and well-connected fossil fuel lobby also had a hand in it. In fact, I'd wager a much larger effect than Ms Fonda and co.

Why do you assume they're unsafe? That's not in the article. It appears you've created a strawman.

Thanks, this is a great channel too.

Some channels I keep coming back to, featuring mostly ambient or low key albums, often from yesteryear. There are many very pleasant ambient Japanese LPs from the 80s that are nice to have on in the background while working while being musi

PwC is primarily an audit firm, which does some consulting, and not the other way around.

I feel we’re very much all in for a rude awakening, and must all reckon with corrupt politicians, and the immediate outcome will probably not be a good one.

Agreed. I made my point badly. Data is needed, not anecdotes.

True. They had to tell me. Your points stand: they could very well have been a minor subset of the overall population. But also by the same argument, they could have been 100pct of the population. It's why I mentioned it's all ane

If we're going with full anecdotes, all the homeschooled folks I've had to deal with have had major issues integrating with wider society. I felt a bit sorry for them, even if they weren't always the nicest or well-meaning pe

I'm wondering about the economics of a household that can afford to have at least one non-working parent in San Francisco, and can maintain all those activities for their children. To me, this reads like a schedule for the children of

I don't know, I really enjoyed reading Shakespeare as a kid at school. It stayed with me too. I actually can't remember the other books we read, except Lord of the Flies.

Halal Guys is not Indian. It was founded by people of Egyptian origin.

I don't think trying to coerce behaviour by means of bureaucracies and laws is limited to the left or any part of the political spectrum.

What is political correctness? And what's the opposite of it? I don't have enough information to understand what you're trying to say (plus your grammatical mistakes make it difficult to parse meaning too).

He makes some decent points but I can't watch his content without cringing at the persona he makes use of. I find it very painful, but I guess it has an audience. I can also imagine people saying the same thing about redlettermedia, wh

I'll try on my side below but that goes both ways - where are your figures coming from, and for which country/geography? You also seem to have switched the topic from how much gets recycled to what can be recycled well. This says

Very little gets recycled, in reality. It mostly goes to landfill - e.g. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/jun/21/us-plastic-r...

I've seen some that just name a family or couple that were taken away one night and "murdered", which hit me the hardest, personally.

It's also not a new phenomenon. Watch this BBC documentary that covers the history of news reporting and it goes back to the early days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mJFKlla-U0

I'm not convinced that Apple create particularly usable software any more. Have you used iTunes or iCloud lately? Their software has largely all atrophied on the desktop, and the best thing I can say about them is that they have better

Not necessarily, unless you have some decent data on this to share? Not everyone might mutter in their sleep. The overlap between the people who mutter and those who self-report might be minimal. Muttering behaviour might have an unexpected

She seems like a decent person. I don't know if the next one would be. Criticising the UK royals feels like criticising a religion, and all that goes with that.

I don't agree with your statement at all. It seems to be largely based on faith, which I lack. IMO we all have own selfish vested interests and the system doesn't necessarily enforce good alignment between them. Put it this way, i
