2022-09-12 at 2:54 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastAs greenhouse gas emissions from human activities increase, they build up in the atmosphere and warm the climate, leading to many other changes around the world—in the atmosphere, on land, and in the oceans. The indicators in other chapters of this report illustrate many of these changes, which have both positive and negative effects on people, society, and the environment—including plants and animals. Because many of the major greenhouse gases stay in the atmosphere for tens to hundreds of years after being released, their warming effects on the climate persist over a long time and can therefore affect both present and future generations.

Concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have increased since the beginning of the industrial era. Almost all of this increase is attributable to human activities.2 Historical measurements show that the current global atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide are unprecedented compared with the past 800,000 years, even after accounting for natural fluctuations.

No. These are 22yr drought periods.
Scientists in that article found that the drought would've been significantly lesser without human driven climate change.
No greenhouse gasses back then. No elevated CO2 levels in the atmosphere :) -

and sugar is only expensive in the US due to the monopoly and manupulation of your Corn Syrup Industrial Complex.
the rest of the world only pays half what ehmehricans pay for their pure, cane sugars.
Lol this chart is dumb as fuck.
The cost of MOST THINGS is higher in America.
maybe even...
the cost of living?? -

Okay so, when they do a cannabinoid potency test they run it through a GCMS or similar machine that produces a chromatography chart. Cannabinoids are represented on these charts as a series of peaks. They will set the machine to different settings/parameters depending on what they're looking for, which will alter the way the peaks present themselves. Scientists have to interpret these peaks to interpret the content of whatever it is they're testing.
A skinny peak may mean "Yes, the machine is pretty sure that this is Compound X", but what we are finding with these synthesized distillates is that they create wider peaks where the machine can only say "Well, this contains Compound X".
So what appears as, say, 20% D9 THC may not actually be the 1-trans-delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol we all know and love, but maybe something like 1-cis-delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol or whatever. It's still 'D9 THC', but its a different isomer that can have different effects and a different safety profile. (see: thalidomide scandal)
This issue is further compounded when you recognize that we haven't actually discovered all the cannabinoids yet. We are synthesizing compounds that we can't identify. This is why you don't see any (true) delta-8 isolate anywhere.
When extracted and distilled, this is not a concern. You should be able to tell by a chromatograph when distillate has been extracted. But unfortunately, its cheaper to synthesize cannabinoids from 'mother' cannabinoids like CBG and CBD, so this type of distillate is more common than distillate made from extractions.
As far as what actual danger this presents... we don't know. It's surely safer than something like synthetic cannabinoids and their full agonist, aromatic ring stacking behavior, but I still don't like taking mystery compounds. If cannabinoids were regulated in the same way as medicine, this would not be allowed to continue in our society. The current process for testing cannabinoids is way too malleable and permissive and IMO, evidence of the neo-liberal capitalist forces that ensured the legalization of cannabis to begin with.
The only extracts I do these days are actual extracts, like rosin or hash, or (tested) solvent based extractions like BHO, where a chromatograph is not really relevant unless you're suspecting your cannabis product of being adulterated.
