All the IPCC models assume massive amounts of sequestration, I believe
It’s a necessity at this point, even if all fossil fuel use stops globally tomorrow

If the overall goal is to increase the human population, it actually makes total sense
If the goal is to prevent murders, then no, it doesn’t make sense
There’s plenty of EVs with 300+ miles of range now. Shouldn’t be an issue.
carbon sequestration is not ever going to work
I don’t know what you’re talking about, it’s a thing that is currently being done. Not some future hypothetical tech.
But yes it is too expensive for now. Costs are coming down hopefully that continues to be the case.
And yes, the best, cheapest, most efficient way to reduce ghg is to eliminate fossil fuels.
Instead of offsets, companies should be pursuing direct carbon sequestration like with https://climeworks.com/
No estimates, no accounting magic. Just a direct measure of physical, measurable tons of carbon directly removed from the atmosphere.
Surveillance state.
For California at least, residential use is about 10% of all water usage iirc. So if data centers are dwarfed by that…not a big concern in the big picture.
The issue I guess is when data center usage sucks up all the local supply. State and region wide they don’t use much but they do use a lot in one small area.
Water is extremely important in most large scale cooling systems, whether it be swamp coolers (aka evaporative cooling) or traditional HVAC (aka chillers).
100%. One of the reasons I didn’t join a union as a skilled worker is that I don’t want to be locked into doing the same exact thing for the rest of my career.
Good for them! I’m glad they got an excellent contract!
But we need to keep in mind that “and benefits” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. I looked at the contract, the pay is something like 30-40 an hour. Good, definitely a living wage, but not $170,000 good. People see that number and think it’s the salary.
This post is Jessica’s revenge on the sighted
I always try to remember this. SOMEONE is an absolute idiot in situations like this, but it’s not always the most obvious one.
Also: someone going super slow in the fast lane. It’s not always the car in front of you, especially if it’s a big car. Sometimes there’s a little car in front of em.
My money is on totally sober moron
I mean…it doesn’t
Who thinks it does? What a silly idea
Privacy? What’s that??
It’s the half you probably don’t want to be on anyway. Automated censorship is shitty.
That’s why it’s so juicy, they’re all such terrible people we don’t have to pick sides
Weird when you consider how little Jews we have in Ireland
Easier to hate someone when you don’t see them all the time at the bar, at the office, at the coffee shop…
Two Jewish men are sitting at a train stop. One takes out a paper and starts reading it. The other glances over, and says “What? Why are you reading a Nazi newspaper??”
The first one says, “if I read the normal newspaper it’s all doom and gloom. But when I read the Nazi newspaper, they say we control the banks, the government, Hollywood…makes me feel better.”
The carbon tax is supposed to (partially) go towards credits for EVs
