Consider . . .

(...) melt our dead body's down to make impact bumpers......

But I don't want to go on a G-series Porsche... please?

[moito]

maybe someday they will melt our dead body's down to make impact bumpers......
self-healing of course...........

or even better--we will become -like it happened to the dinos-crude oil....of which our grand⁶childs can again refine gasoline or plastic
thats what i call sustainability

Hmm

. . . Like promoting the climate change nonsense on a board that (supposedly) is non-political . . .

I'm recalling CM's first response to this thread . . .

. . . Consider the position you're putting me in to moderate this off topic topic, to try keep it a-political . . . . But alas, with our intellect and interests comes an almost an equal amount of passion. . .

The rules are no politics, no religion . . .

I post the things I come across somewhere else . . . and lately try more to limit my comments

If there are any 'politics' involved, then it might be in my choices of what to share . . . so not always my words. Someone else's --- if I can



To put it Another Way

You can respond to me if you like --- but I would ask any Thoughtful Person to respond to what I present . . .

. . . to consider:

How much CO2 a gallon of gasoline produces . . . regardless of the vehicle

The measurable reduction in the number of plants and animals out-and-about --- and what their contribution to our environment is . . . or isn't

Is it smarter to control guns? or bullets? Cars? . . . or gasoline?

And when a certain Exxon physicist says that his employer was considering the effects of CO2 on the environment 40 years ago, what would you make of that? (Uhhh --- and I'm not a physicist)


You can always shoot the messenger. Or? . . .

. . . consider?


As for my 'Espo-Resto gas guzzling 911 that emits more than a 100 new cars' . . .

. . . I try to make up for it by driving a 52 MpG turbo-diesel --- used, of course

. . . Save this post, for it will soon be deleted. Unlike all the nonsense in this thread . . .

And, yet . . . here you are. I suppose I should appreciate your responding

Unfortunately, it's usually impolitic comments that spoil threads


So --- consider . . .

. . . what would a Thoughtful Person make of your post?



Thanks for writing

I don't think this thread is political, just a public awareness message. Sort of like the caloric intake label on a food item.
Although all these articles are meant to make "US" feel guilty while huuuge emitters carry on.

eg. We are made guilty to pretend that we are actually recycling plastic while Coke and the rest pump plastic bottles out which will eventually end up being shipped to africa from our recycling bins.
Quiz: How much packaging do you need for Amazon to ship you a keychain?
I can guarantee that no one will be able to drive a 2023 Tesla 50 years from now.

this year i went the eco-friendlier way...the red bling bling on the "tree" already went back on the attic to be reused next season and the paper wrapping served to cushion goods i shipped to the US.
