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

  • 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.

  • Don't let perfect be the enemy of the good.

  • 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.

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

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

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

  • 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@slrpnk.net

  • Maybe not the best suggestion for this community then.

  • Don't feed the trolls.

  • We need a diversity of tactics.

  • That's helpful, thanks!

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

  • For those interested, AntennaPod is a pretty sweet free and open source podcast app for Android that's very polished. A great alternative to Spotify, etc.

  • Sorry, I don't understand your question.

  • Another option to consider is a native plant growncover! It'll be low maintenance and won't require mowing.

  • Looks great! You could add a rain barrel to easily water your plants for free. Just avoid watering vegetables with runoff from your roof.

  • To be fair, a country is a political entity or state. I read it as being targeted towards the state, rather than all people living in the USA.

  • It gets worse than that unfortunately.
