Earth matters

No matter what way you turn you end up with your ass pointing backwards.

The most powerful known greenhouse gas has been leaking into the Earth's atmosphere due to the green energy boom, it was reported on Friday night.

Sulphur hexafluoride, or SF6, is widely used in the electrical industry to prevent short circuits and accidents.

It is 23,500 times more warming than carbon dioxide (CO2), and just one kilogram warms the Earth as much as 24 people flying London to New York return.

The drive to use mixed sources of power, including wind, solar and gas, rather than coal as fuel has resulted in a rise in the number of electrical devices that use SF6, the BBC said.

A study from the University of Cardiff found that across all transmission and distribution networks, the amount used was increasing by 30-40 tonnes per year.

Emissions of the gas in the UK and the rest of the EU in 2017 were the equivalent of putting an extra 1.3million cars on the road.

ITM.

BTW: It still amazes me as to how few people actually listen to these two.

It's true.

Nice map that tracks the climate impact of the current energy production/consumption in Europe and some other regions. It looks like some countries already solved it. For extra credits, what do they have in common?

It's a fair question whether this post should go in the "DESMOND IS AMAZING" thread instead of here.

President Obama hosted Thunberg in his office on Monday. “You and me, we’re a team,” Obama told the girl after an awkward and clearly scripted exchange in his office. He commended her for “changing the world.”

It would seem Soros is dressing this girl up a lot like 1930s fascist propaganda.

Dnish Desouzo or however you spell that guy's name was pointing it out.

This is fascism.
