  • Idk, they're sticky these days on NSFW. A few years back anything went as long as it wasn't nudity of gore.

    That said, I wouldn't want my boss walking by while I was browsing this particular meme.

  • The best part, though, is that you don't have to be here and you're subjecting yourself to lazy, dull content!

    You also don't want the internet to think to hard, or you end up with the most cursed stuff imaginable

  • TIL about Hyperaccumulators, a low cost way of recyling contaminated soil

    Jump

  • This is an evolutionary strategy for them to occupy niches that other plants can't, this giving them a competitive edge. Some other metal tolerant plants don't hyper accumulate, and have pathways to selectively uptake what they need without poisoning themselves.

    Hyper accumulators take up everything and then just store it in the vacuoles of their cells to isolate the metals.

    Importantly, when the plants die, the metals are re-released, so if you're phyroremediating you have to harvest them and then dispose of them in a landfill.

    Finally, hyper accumulators can pose a risk to wildlife that might browse on them, whereas metal tolerant plants may not

  • I disagree on the environmentally sustainable aspect. It is our responsibility to be good stewards of the earth, though we all very much shirk that duty.

    I agree on institutions and regulations though, very much.

    The green revolution was more of a combination of factors. The early to mid 20th century saw a lot of mechanical and chemical development, with the Haber-Bosch process only discovered at the onset of WWI. There definitely was a 'contain communism' aspect to it though. I don't think it was more about power over the working class, but more of 'hey if Asia is hungry they'll be angry, and if they're angry they'll get organized or be susceptible to communist influences'.

  • TIL about limnic eruptions, a type of natural hazard in which dissolved CO2 erupts from deep lake waters forming a gas cloud capable of asphyxiating everything in its path.

  • The Palliser Triangle would like to know your location.

    Pre 50s Ag was small scale, and did tons of environmental damage. The green Revolution promoted corporate Ag, which gave us the system we have now. None of this is ideal, and a better land management would have served us a lot better.

  • You are all worried about being drafted and the inequity of Baron getting off the hook like this (whether it's a true headline or not). Just do what Ted Nugent did, and shit yourself for 3 day and get a mental illness waiver!

    Stop there though and don't molest underage girls

  • You're probably right in some cases, but I think it's more of a way of people dealing with their disbelief that it's come to this. There's a lot of ways to process the current insanity; dark humour is possibly the most accessible though.

  • Offsetting global fossil fuel stores by planting trees is impossible

    Jump

  • I agree, but a lot of the sequestration options out there suck. By all means replant, but do it wisely. Geological storage has been shown to be way less efficient than desired.

    There is some promise in C sequestration in tailings, because it's permanently bound, but it's situational.
