Man
I hate all of these people
Well I hate the ones I know
There’s a lot of randos
Wait what's wrong with fascism?
I'm outta the loop guys
do you mean what's wrong with fascism as a government or what's wrong with the dems bringing it up?
What's wrong with securing the Lebensraum
What's wrong with Manifest Destiny on steroids
What's wrong with lynching Google
Walmart is promoting white supremacy!
Wtf I love Walmart now
They do pay me pretty well.
I’m gonna need a source for that insane claim
If it confirms my biases it's true goddamnit
I’m not a doomsday nut job but it’s crazy to claim one volcanic eruption contains more carbon dioxide than the entirety of humanity has ever produced
Depends on the size of the volcano
Well and the eruption
I imagine it'd be a more notable event if it had, but what do I know
```Iceland's Eyjafjoell volcano is emitting between 150,000 and 300,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) per day, a figure placing it in the same emissions league as a small-to-medium European economy, experts said on Monday.
Assuming the composition of gas to be the same as in an earlier eruption on an adjacent volcano, "the CO2 flux of Eyjafjoell would be 150,000 tonnes per day," Colin Macpherson, an Earth scientist at Britain's University of Durham, said in an email. Patrick Allard of the Paris Institute for Global Physics (IPGP) gave what he described as a "top-range" estimate of 300,000 tonnes per day. Both insisted that these were only approximate estimates. Extrapolated over a year, the emissions would place the volcano 47th to 75th in the world table of emitters on a country-by-country basis, according to a database at the World Resources Institute (WRI), which tracks environment and sustainable development. A 47th ranking would place it above Austria, Belarus, Portugal, Ireland, Finland, Bulgaria, Sweden, Denmark and Switzerland, according to this list, which relates to 2005. Experts stressed that the volcano contributed just a tiny amount – less than a third of one percentage point – of global emissions of greenhouse gases.```
1 in 10000 definitely off, but within the last 10000 years would be equal probably
There is such thing as a supereruption, but like I said, we'd know if it happened
There was a supereruption 70,000 years ago that sent the world into a volcanic winter for several years and produced a subsequent thousand-year cooling period according to **SCIENCE**
Damn it Indonesia
Stop farting so violently
I'm pretty sure Lake Toba alone released more CO2 than humanity has
isn't there a company that is developing a carbon extraction that turns it into feul pellets?
Yes
They're experimenting with carbon capture here in BC
Something Microsoft or Bill Gates invested in in Canada
If it's scalable then they can work on maybe turning it back into fuel
problem solved, no cap and trade needed, alernative feul as bonus. Environmental crisis averted
I think it's a good idea but it's not a replacement or anything
Really we're going to have to move to a system other than one size fits all, as annoying as that may be
nuclear
They’re doing carbon capture research in the states as well
I’ve seen a few postdocs for it lately while job searching
Yeah they're no where near going to be able to revert it, but density is pretty good on it, also it takes power to use it, but better than solar or lithium
Nuclear helps with electricity gen, but currently that's not a viable avenue for tankers or planes, unless you plan on making nuclear tankers and aircraft and talking people into hopping onboard
