The original article talks specifically about flooding rice farming. https://www.straitstimes.com/world/europe/your-bowl-of-rice-is-hurting-the-climate-too

Apparently, flooding the field kills weeds but allows the rice plant to survive. The plant matter decomposes and releases methane gas. The article’s main point is to bring awareness to a planting technique that doesn’t produce methane gas. It’s clickbait more than corps doing there “take individual responsibility” thing.

I still don’t get why Lemmy instances don’t default to “Hot”. Kbin does it right by going with “Hot” as default. All “Active” does is dog pile on posts that are almost a day old, sometimes even older than that.

You know what, what’s even the point of “Active” at this point with so many active users?

Oh yeah, well I’ll need to see a CT scan showing no kidney stones before I believe that no one was hurt during this pee.
