They also don't drive several thousand or tens of thousand kilometers in one go once or more a year either in addition to the normal driving, so I'd say that argument is not helpful here.

I wonder what the difference between 'switch electric car to car free' and 'live carfree' is? The effect over time or not using rentals/other people's cars maybe?

Don't underestimate the wild pigs though! Actually a great part of European biodiversity depends on the cultivation of the land. The natural state would be forests and swamps. Grazing leads to open lands with a multitude of grasses, ot

The worst culprit for many people I know is flying. You can eat a lot of meat for the emissions of just one long-haul flight. (Which is sad because flying is great.)

Great! They don't seem to have historic ship positions though.. hm.

Is there an open version for ship data as well?

I can recommend going in September. They are already at winter prices (much lower) but you still have a good chance at ok weather, plus the nights are long enough to see aurora.

From what I've seen, working with a good software consultancy for a while is not bad since they will give you a lot of initial training in stuff like software project management and the latest continuous integration/unit testing&#

I wouldn't think about moving to UK right now, since the rules may change any day.

I feel the consequences are a bit different. If you have ethical reasons, then no meat is ok. If you have ecological reason, a little bit (especially gras-fed or similar) seems ok (the only question is how much).

At this point I'd rather take the risks and costs of nuclear instead of the sure problems of coal and gas. Until it is all replaced with renewable (hopefully very soon) we should definitely keep everything possible running.

Hm, so selling to a robot without someone behind to represent would be extralegal I guess, and if any problems occur during the trade you'd be on your own? The closest thing would probably trades with wild animals. Are there any laws o

I think that depends on what you take as a baseline for a non-expert. For the violinist you seem to take somebody who does not know how to play the violin at all. For the cloud architect however, what do you use? A person who has never touc

If it's cold that's not so good because there will be so much steam. (Another thing, you have to undress, sit in there and get dry and dressed again in the cold.. brr which is why I decided against it when faced with the decisio

It's definitely green (and a little blue and red if you're lucky). You'd have to be massively colourblind to not see this. The ground though.. just like with the moon, it's still greyish, that part is usually from long

Sorry you were unlucky during your trip. I've seen the sort you've described, but I can confirm what the other commenters are saying. It does look different from most pictures, but that's because they usually don't resol

It's not like the word 'fire hydrant' exists in those countries either, so some kind of knowledge/learning/look-up is involved anyway, no?

Are there rules against selling to robots? I mean, a great portion of the stock exchange is just that, essentially, no?

I'm thinking about some comments about a potential of the Ireland conflict which arguably included a lot of terrorism flaring up again as a consequence of Brexit and the issues with the Ireland land border. Not saying there is some con

No, the changes in land use had significant and detectable impacts far before that. The albedo change between forest and fields alone is quite large.

It still makes a difference when you move the CO2 to the stratosphere, which is what you essentially do here. I'm not sure we've run the models on this (without the rest of the changes), so I don't know at what point it becom

It did not help that some new aspects found in physics were considered 'ungerman' ('Jewish physics') and discarded, especially Einstein's work and many aspects of quantum mechanics. This alone would probably have pr

Give us some examples of what you're trying to do, maybe someone here will help you in the future.

It's actually a decent source of money as a student. Go lie in the fMRT for an hour or two (I just sleep if there's nothing to do) and they will wire you ~10€/hour or more.

Nobody claims accuracy on the timescale of such a high resolution. Aditionally, we don't know about future emissions and land-use changes, and feedback effects, so we cannot predict the exact future. Please check the wikipedia page for

A lot of care was taken in the wording of the last IPCC report to communicate what findings have which level of confidence. The range is from 'virtually certain' to unsure, and yes, some parts are indeed not settled yet, but the m

How much fossil energy are you using with this setup? That is the only relevant question for this topic.

And they did not have the science and data to support them, now we do. Let's just hope we are being a bit too alarmist and it gets us to change our behaviour fast enough and not too late. We'd rather be wrong on this, you know.
