Yeah, 50,000 of the most zealous R's in Iowa voted for him And about the same amount wished for pretty much anyone else. Hardly a ringing endorsement.

I read somewhere that you could pump CO2 into a saline aquifer and have it stay there indefinitely. Should we be capturing the CO2 from breweries and doing this? Ethanol fuel production? I mean all these plants are doing direct air capture already. If we just route the off gassing underground it would seem like a cheap way to leverage existing technology.

Wait, did you just post a high quality fact?

In the US PNW coast area Douglas Fir trees are harvested for lumber within about 30 years, plus or minus. Maybe the person you were talking to was considering the harvest of the tree to be the moment when the CO2 is "reclaimed"?

Wrt to when the tree pays off the carbon footprint generated by raising and planting the seedling, I guess it's less than three years.
Fun fact: Douglas Fir reach peak carbon fixation rate at about 120 years.

This is terrible journalism too. The entire article gives voice to the ravings of a hack while giving no account of a potential explanation, context or opposing view.

Green beans. My wife keeps growing different kinds of beans and I find myself yearning for the perfect green pods. Scarlet Runner was surprisingly fantastic last year, eaten green. This year she grew Yard Long beans and those were wonderful too.

or when someone gets the benefit of excellent medical care and thanks God for it. ugh. A lifetime of dedication by the doctors and scientists that brought you this cure? A distant second place.

It's funny but also accurate. When leaders lie to their followers eventually the wheels come off the cart.

Jack Dorsey is just Coca Cola to Elon Musks Pepsi.
A lot of us just want water; it's a lot cheaper and won't give you diabetes.

My impression is the problem is primarily pesticide use is too ubiquitous. Help normalize pesticide free environments and you help bees.
