2022-12-01 at 12:21 AM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastI like to say I love Chinese food but in reality I just love black pepper chicken and other flavored chickens mixed up with fried rice. When I go to Chinese buffets I do the same thing no matter what which is just eat fried rice and the same three or four chicken types that I like, generally the spicy ones, and that's it. I don't fuck with anything else in the buffet even once. And if I'm drunk enough I'll eat like nineteen free bowls of ice cream because they always have an ice cream machine.

Originally posted by ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You missed the title: "ACTUAL Climate Change Pronouncements."
Every single one of those statements are out of context and not representative of the original statement's meaning. I'll just pick one at random, 1989 "nations will be wiped off the map by 2000"
This is referencing a statement made by Noel Brown, regional director of the UN Environmental Programme at the time (not a climate scientist himself), in 1989. The statement attributed in the cartoon is not accurate, what was said was "entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000."
Not that it would happen BY 2000. Whenever climate change deniers reference statements like this to debunk the science of climate change, they're failing to understand that these dates and time frames they're talking about aren't some kind of doomsday clock where the apocalypse happens when they expire. Carbon that gets trapped in the atmosphere can linger there for decades or centuries and migrate to different parts of the atmosphere over time so the effects are cumulative and it may take many years before the actual impacts are felt. But modeling those impacts is just simple chemistry and physics. You take the known thermal properties of carbon, the known amount of carbon we are putting out, and plug in the known qualities of our atmosphere and the energy input from the sun, and you get a model of climate change. Climate is complicated and these models aren't perfect but even when you look at a range from the most optimistic outcomes to the most alarmist possibilities, even the milder scenarios will be devastating for the world.
I don't believe even in the worst case that this is an existential threat to humanity but it will certainly cause trillions of dollars of damage to the economy and likely a very significant loss of life around the world. Prove me wrong using any kind of logic or evidence, not cartoons and memes. You can't. -

Germany is set to tear down a wind farm to make room for a coal mine expansion.
German energy giant RWE is set to demolish the turbines and expand a neighbouring coal mine to alleviate the country’s energy crisis, which was prompted by Germany’s sanctions on Russian liquid natural gas, which Europe greatly depends upon.
The wind farm, near the town of Lützerath, will be used to expand the Garzweiler open pit mine in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Eight wind turbines are expected to be dismantled, with one removed last week, two to be deconstructed next year, with the final five torn down by the end of 2023.
RWE spokesperson Guido Steffen said in a statement, “We realize this comes across as paradoxical, but that is as matters stand.”
The Ministry of Economy of North Rhine-Westphalia added, “If Lützerath were to be preserved, the production volume required to maintain the security of supply over the next eight years could not be achieved, the stability of the opencast mine could not be guaranteed and the necessary recultivation could not be carried out."
RWE will also reactivate three lignite-fired coal units that were on standby.
“The three lignite units each have a capacity of 300 megawatts (MW). With their deployment, they contribute to strengthening the security of supply in Germany during the energy crisis and to saving natural gas in electricity generation,” RWE stated in September. “Originally, it was planned that the three reserve power plant units affected would be permanently shut down on September 30, 2022, and September 30, 2023, respectively.”
Germany’s cabinet approved the decision to activate the discontinued coal units to boost energy supplies, as the country struggles to import enough energy due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. -

If I showed you a liberal source that said up was down, you would probably find a way to dispute it lol. That's what I'm talking about. You're doing the very thing I just explained. Thank you. -

Originally posted by Speedy Parker Yes, right now I still understand it, you are correct.
He is compulsively obsessed with climate change and will not consider a single fact which disputes his own views on it.
Idk man just because he's posted a lot itt, he spends a lot less time here on this site in general. Do you think in his free time he's also just constantly talking about climate change?
Do you really not see my point? It's not even worth it trying to have a normal conversation with people that instantly discredit you as a retard before even getting into it. Extreme statements like "he hasn't even considered one single fact opposing his stance" just kind of reinforce that.. I mean how do you know?
I can say that too. Anyone can. How can spectral possibly believe in the fairytale of the Bible, he's not even CONSIDERING any facts that challenge his beliefs. How do I know that? I guess I don't.
Whatever lol. All's I'm saying is a discussion is hard to come by here and name-calling seems to be the go to, regardless of any 'facts and evidence' that either side on an issue presents.
Has anyone here ever changed their mind about something even remotely controversial, based off discussion here? Lol probably not or at least not that they would ever admit. -

Originally posted by Speedy Parker Is that why you refuse to consider what really happens and cling to the fairy tales you read.
I've never much thought of obbe as a close-minded person, especially compared to the vast majority of users here. Sure maybe he's fixated on climate change and I mean, whatever right? It's not like he means ill will, and it's just one subject.
The reality is there's next to no reason to come here anymore actually expecting anyone to engage in a civil discussion about much of anything, to me basically because everyone is so dug into their beliefs and have been calling anyone who disagree a retard for so long, that it's way too humiliating to even consider a concession to ones own beliefs or at least openly admitting it. Folks just double down on whatever no matter what.
And of course that isn't exclusive to this site, it's pretty much everywhere.
I feel like I could come here and explain how healthy whole grain bread is compared to other breads, show my statistics and evidence, and I would almost assuredly get someone to laugh and say thats an unfair comparison because democrats own the nutritional industry and have a bias toward whole grain.
There's just no winning here. Everyone magically has an answer for everything. It's amazing how so many people with so many opposing viewpoints can all be completely right at the same time! lol -
2022-09-14 at 10 PM UTC in "Unplugging"Seriously considering doing my best to spend as little time online as possible. I've spoken to two people in the last 2 days who gave up cell phones for 6 months and have noticed serious benefits (and want to keep doing it) and another who's foregone social media with discernible benefit.
I have so much negativity and toxicity emanating from myself I feel I have to unplug in order to move forward and reshape how I use the tools at my disposal. Thinking of just using the internet for work related or necessary social purposes. The world is so beautiful its best to have my head up instead of down in my phone. It's a habit forming coping pattern of which you'll cowards have been apart of and I thank you for that. I think I need to step back a bit tho in alot of areas of my internet use in order to make the most efficient use of what I'm given.
Any of you'll cowards ever done that consciously? Noticed a difference? No? Shut up -
2022-09-12 at 1:31 PM UTC in What strain are you smoking right now
Originally posted by Obbe I'm still use my old Space Case what can I say I'm an old man now and haven't really seen a need to replace it although I have wondered if a fine grind would be worth the upgrade.
The dynavape looks like a quality product, if maybe a little crack-pipeish. For portable use I've just been using those disposable cartridges and a Yocan Uni Pro, typically with the voltage set fairly low. It's just super quick and convenient, and the variable voltage setting helps moderate the type of high it can produce.
Brilliant Cut Grinders are the best that exist IMO. I thought it was very much bullshit advertising until I looked into it and bought one. For whatever reason there has not been much grinder innovation until the last ~15yrs. The BCG is the pinnacle of that evolution, I feel. The lack of threading/magnetic lock + curved teeth + smash plate hole design make a huuuuuuge difference in ease of use. I can jam it full without even bothering to take the stems out and it will still turn like butter. When I let people grind weed in mine they automatically want one. I have literally never seen anyone (IRL or online) who prefers another grinder to these.
If you end up going for that fine grind, I 100% recommend a BCG. Totally worth the price tag. Though I have heard the Space Case is still a pretty great grinder.
Carts are super easy and convenient, but I've moved away from distillate due to health concerns regarding isomers. It's something I see talked about with D8 THC but not so much D9 THC, which is synthesized just the same. Without a chromatography report (which nobody publishes with their product) you can't really trust the cannabinoid content. Plus its basically like glue in your lungs and probably leads to more alveolar issues with the irritation and coughing it can cause. I don't get nearly as congested with herb vaping.
But I guess if you use infrequently its not so much of a problem
