I don’t see your point.

Building fossil fuel power infrastructure does nothing to move the needle, but building renewables does.

What are you actually proposing? Because it reads as “we shouldn’t try because any benefits or impacts are long-term”

But the fun thing is that once we reach a critical point, it will go from having a positive carbon impact to a negative carbon impact. But we can never get there if we never start

It’s all about scale and infrastructure.

The overlap between “chemtrails” and “fluoride in the water” and “epa bad” is pretty high. It’s actually kinda odd.

Fair enough, there’s potential for landfills to leak.

But if its between that, dumping it in the ocean, or exporting it, the landfill wins.

Does secret service have to protect him in prison?

I read the snippets and abstract. I’m not seeing how these micro plastics are getting out of the landfills.

Environmental risks of microplastics in landfills

In landfills, microplastics are not standalone pollutants. Generally, such tiny particles can adsorb various harmful chemicals due to its large specific surface area [54].

Never knew that!

In this case, microplastics generally served as the vector for migrating adsorbed pollutants including heavy metals, antibiotics and other pharmaceutical and personal care products [55].

That’s scary, microplastics can absorb and spread pollutants!

But I’m not seeing anything about how they’re getting out from a landfill. I even read a few of the referenced articles. But nothing about if or how they’re getting out.

Got that blue cheese dip, BIITCH

How does buried plastic cause microplastics to leech everywhere?

Weathering (sun, exposure, abrasion caused by plastic being moved by wind and sea) is a significant part of microplastic formation.

Quite honestly, going to a landfill seems so so so much better than the alternative: going into the environment and oceans, turning into microplastics and getting into food chains.

At least landfills are contained. Bury the shit until we have the tech to deal with it.

Some day, between the plastics, nutrients from organics, e-waste, landfills are going to be a goldmine.

Theocracy

Huh. Nothing to do woth religion…

There’s going to be no external interference when you’re under water. Sea water makes an excellent em shield

It’s going to happen more than a few times until people learn. Same with deepfakes

Woah that’s incredible

I never proposed doing it at every pizzeria. Production facilities where they make boneless wings in bulk. A human might not even be involved.

But yeah, if the human leaves a bone in the chicken, they’re doing their job wrong…

X-ray machines are extremely common in industrial inspection processes. https://www.cassel-inspection.com/x-ray-inspection-machine

X-ray would be ideal to spot bone because there’s huge contrast. That’s why you get an x-ray for bones, opposed to an MRI which would be used for soft tissues.

It would be trivial and inexpensive to use an x-ray to check for bones and fragments.

I’m not convinced there was an issue with 12th gen. I had instability with the 12900k until the latest bios update.

I bet the screen is less prone to scratching from anything in your pockets

Warm take, but that’s what makes a burger good

No, it would be scalding hot. But also probably neat.
