Hmm. Well, people are bombarded ever day with intense advertising that links their with with commodities. The pressure is intense. Anyone who has had to buy trainers for their kids will tell you.

Personally, I think I need a new bike.

Hydrogen doesn't work and nuclear is too expensive CCS also doesn't work.

Renewables work and are cheap and easy to install. Combine them with battery in a SunWindBattery system and maybe a bit of hydro and we have enough energy.

There are so many solutions.

But instead we are using gas and burning oil. Politicians and fossil fuel companies obstruct renewables and other climate mitigation

Because profit is more important than human survival.

I wonder what you would.call anti-Russian racism. Ruskyphobia? Russo-phobia?

@BakedGoods @xuxebiko

We should be careful about bothsidism. The Muslims who suffer racist violence in India are rarely violent cultists. They are everyday people trying to live their lives and look after their families. Just like us.

@NoneOfUrBusiness @alphacyberranger @Custoslibera @raspberriesareyummy @lemmington_steele

Yes, very much so. On so may levels. Treatment of women, invasion of Yemen, brutal judicial system, destruction of climate, sponsorship of terrorism...

Assuming Biden wants to do anything about the CCP or Modi.

These regimes are useful to US, extending neoliberalism in India and cheap manufacturing for US companies in China. A little bit of ethnonationalism has never been a concern to US foreign policy.

Compared to other regimes supported by the US, such as Saudi Arabia, both Modi and the CCP are quite liberal regimes.

Modi is very dangerous.

OK

I think you are arguing with a point I didn't make.

And poor grammar

@Chainweasel

I was talking about Musk

Apologies, it's my dry delivery that confuses people.

@Chainweasel @underisk

Well, NASA supported a privatised (but publically funded) space industry and the skies are full of shiny metal detritus and we have an idiot in charge who shares his time between defending anti-semitism and interfearing in global conflicts.

This is brutal and you don't want to read it. But #nuclear really isn't a good idea

See above if you think nuclear energy is safe

@penitentOne

1.3m EV could store 1.3million x 50kwh = 65gwh

The UK uses 28gwh on an average day

It seems to add up quite well. These guys looked at it.
