Many countries have plans for coal phase-out, including dates. There could be more, of course, and tighter timelines, but it's there. Considering the much higher costs of gas and oil in comparison (and compared to renewable) this might

I have the same issue and I only ride cars very very rarely. I'm still wondering about the reason.

It's also 'this is broken and should go to cloth recycling, but I do not have access to any cloth recycling facility, whereas the donation centers do'.

Yes, that sounds plausible, it's the same for me. (It's not hard to guess how I know about the asthma potential. -.-)

I've seen some grass cardboard pop up in the few deliveries we get. The wood pulp is probably negotiable and increasingly more so.

I wish the plastic packaging of the toilet paper was even better suited as a liner for the bathroom bin. It's just good enough as it is, but the producers don't even seem to be aware of this fantastic secondary function.

Some of the strongest and clearest constellations are seasonal. I have a particular fondness for Orion, a winter constellation in the northern hemisphere, and look at it often. The first time I travelled to the southern hemisphere and looke

CO2 goes down due to chemical weathering - basically it binds to the rock and is then washed into the sea, where it is subducted into the mantle due to plate tectonics. It comes back up from volcanoes - the deep carbon cycle. The amount of

I think it's informative to look at the location of a place within a timezone. Between the eastern and the western edge of a timezone you can have more than an hour of shift in daylight (in the broader zones), of course people's r

You can't be a climate scientist right now and not code. (You don't have to be good though.. urgh.) I do think the people working on upgrading the energy grid do have more utility at this point though.

Yes, but that is not necessarily a good thing in terms of carbon capture. Eg research indicates that in the tropical rainforests, lianas get the largest boost, allowing them to basically smother the tall trees. However, these store the most

Just watch out for the bees in the clover flowers, as we here all learned the hard way as kids. (No grass without clover and daisies, they're honorably lawn here as well.)

I have a friend with extreme food restrictions, they can mostly only eat animal products (plus white rice and very few other things). They also cannot brush their teeth regularly due to disability - yet their teeth look fantastic!

I feel problems with gums and other areas don't get stressed enough in childhood. There are plenty of other problems that are not enamel-related, and I'd guess you can easily still have trouble with enamel even with this treatment

I agree. The authors probably had a bad day. Conferences can be depressing. The IPCC reports contain the very basic rock-solid consensus of what can be expected, but while playing around with data and models things can look much scarier.
