toaster,

Holy guacamole I need more pictures of this giant.

toaster,

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of the good.

toaster,

The fact that the wage gap absolutely exist is not an attack on men or men’s wages. There’s no need to get defensive. We can all work together to fix this problem.

toaster,

Well done! Is there a Lemmy community where I could find more of this?

SUVs made up 20% of global emissions growth and 55% of car sales globally in 2023 (slrpnk.net)

This is just insane. Not only are cars themself mostly unnecessary, if the right infrastructure is provided, but SUVs also use more resources to run and be produced then small cars, without any advantage over them. So an obvious waste, which could easily be cut to reduce emissions....

toaster,

Both your comment and edit were snarky. Let’s just be nice.

toaster,

Say you remove SUVs from the other countries’ calculations. That would make SUVs look even worse.

toaster,

Forgive me if I’m misunderstanding this but weren’t the SUVs already calculated in the countries’ bars?

I was responding to this comment. If you remove the SUVs’ calculations from other bars then the others get smaller relative to SUVs and make SUVs look worse.

Or perhaps you begin arbitrarily counting other things twice in your calculations. Then they look better.

They either kept SUVs in or they didn’t. If they kept them in (counted twice) It makes SUVs look less polluting (see above). If they didn’t count them twice then it would be more accurate and make SUVs look more polluting.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether they counted SUVs twice or not because it doesnt make their calculations “look better”.

I don’t see it as alarmist at all. Rather, it’s demonstrating how much emissions come from SUVs. As seen by other comments on this post, it sparks dialogue about less carbon intensive alternatives to SUVs which are exceedingly common.

toaster,

No way! I hope your presentation goes well - I got a chuckle out of the last point.

If you’re interested, your presentstion/pile would make great posts in this community. :) Hopefully we can make it more active.

toaster,

Well done! Love it 🙂

toaster,

You can attach a rope that’s tethered to shore and pull on it when you’d like to harvest.

Floating Island Garden (lemmy.world)

Our retention pond in our neighborhood has a lot of algae and problematic plant growth due to the surrounding farms and lawn runoff, so we’re experimenting with a floating island to pull nutrients out before they can cause problems. This will also provide some interesting flowering plants, and more fish habitats....

What a great idea! I’m curious to see how this goes. Would you be open to cross-posting this to the solarpunk farming community? !farming

toaster,

Maybe not the best suggestion for this community then.

toaster,

That’d be a handy feature. Consider opening an issue for it on GitHub.

toaster,

There’s !workreform

toaster,

Perhaps in the USA, which may or may not be true. But many of us internationally haven’t even seen the interview. Either way, !workreform is more appropriate.

toaster,

Wow!! Thank you for your additions. When I get the time, I’ll update the wiki.
