Are they cheaper when you price in whatever adhesive you are using?

As long as there is still a favorable environment for microbes they will repopulate that environment quickly.

It was probably a lot easier to hunt successfully when everyone was a hunter-gatherer and all the land wasn't devoted to agriculture.

It's possible that individual lives were happier for hunter-gatherers than agriculturalists, but that groups of agriculturalists outcompeted groups of hunter-gatherers.

Your video [2] does not support the claim that the early Americans did not use prescribed fire. Discussion starts around 50:00.

There were lots of tribes though, so it probably added up to a humongous area.

We haven’t completely ruined it. Build native habitat in your yard, be vocal about your concerns, donate to land preservation and get involved in your local politics and you can make a huge difference.

Very interesting, could you point us to some further reading?

After burying wood you are growing more wood, so yeah, as long as you are using land that wasn't forested before you are net negative

I guess it never happens because the incentives are so strong not to let it happen. I had a boss who told me he would be in humongous trouble with his boards if he didn’t spend it all.

If you are building new habitat you can lock up carbon permanently by creating a self-replenishing ecosystem. This can be jump-started with dead organic matter but will eventually become a living system.

My favorite form of carbon capture is building habitat for organisms. Then you are increasing the carrying capacity of the planet for life, which also stores carbon. And you are addressing the extinction event.

Some of it will turn into gases. Some will turn into those bugs and microbes and other forms of biomass.

The author conflates contemporary architecture which is actively meant to be repulsive (the minority) with that which is merely efficient and utilitarian. IMO efficiency and utilitarianism is good and democratic because it provides shelter

The anti-nimbys prefer organic, bottom-up growth and detest top-down megaprojects imposed on the people, so no.

Making more food on less land definitely is.

How are they blaming her?

Having kids and is becoming the ultimate status signal in my younger social circles. It's weird, but makes sense given the exorbitant costs of housing, education, and healthcare (all strongly associated with children).

I actually love when I'm given a time limit for a task. It enables me to engage my prioritization skills more effectively.

It's not about 'fault' really, it's about achieving better outcomes by learning from previous experiences.

> she did it because this is clearly not the first time so it makes sense for there to be a spare umbrella. Where are you getting this information from? IMO there is nothing wrong with the comment you're replying to. They didn'

The higher up somebody is, the more they prioritize speed over quality. Low level employees do not have the breadth of context that higher-ups do. The more that each level understands this about the other, the more aligned their expectation

Theoretically you could spend the same amount an some insanely huge used diamond.

Can you cite any historic precedent for what you're implying would happen? To me it's not nearly the most plausible outcome.

I wish it hadn't, but it seems like the ship has sailed.
