And they're still a massive improvement on burning single use, finite, fossil fuels

A million seconds is only 11.6 days.
A billion seconds is 31.7 years.
A trillion seconds is 31709 years.

Ummm.. You are aware, right, that even a Down Vote on something gooses the algorithm into boosting that thing......
More people are going to see something, thanks to your engagement with that thing.
This isn't an argument against you. It's an argument against YouTube!

I'm sorry, I cannot take the bullshit assertion that "hydro is just as bad as oil & gas" seriously.
Have better days, eh
I'm out.
Replying to @tantramar@zeroes.ca
If ya give it a try, lemme know how it goes eh!
I've been using it for a couple of months now, and so far it's worked great
Replying to @gerrymcgovern@mastodon.green
Yeah, naaah... I'm not interested in Doomerism
We have solutions that are more than capable of working to reduce, indeed even help redress Anthropogenic Global Climate Change. It's going to take 25-35 generations, sure, probably even more because we've fucked up our planet so hard and so fast.
Oligarchs and Billionaires have created the lions share of everything wrong with this world. Ridding ourselves of them will be like crawling out from under the rubble to save ourselves.
We don't have to give up modern life.
We have to take down the Smaugs who are hording 99% of our wealth and consuming 95% of our resources.

Aaaaand it's still orders of magnitude more desirable than burning dinosaur shit
Not to mention it's far down list of preferable choices, after solar, after wind, I'd say even after nuclear
So, again, what's your solution?
Replying to @gerrymcgovern@mastodon.green
CO2 is the worst, by far.
Every large, accredited, respected climate science organization in the world agrees.
I asked above, if not batteries, and some combination of Renewable energy, what's your solution?
Replying to @Pepijn@mastodon.online
Maybe... I didn't bother getting into a linguistic debate with them
I just giggled and adopted the term for my own use

Solar... Wind... Hydro.... Hell, I'm not even very opposed to nuclear as a carry over while we put Oil&Gas into its long overdue coffin and bolt it shut forever

The Impending Anthropocene Extinction is almost completely caused by Climate Change, which is almost completely caused by the burning of fossil fuels.

There is absolutely no reason Canada should be importing alcohol from anywhere....
It's not like we're not perfectly capable of making it ourselves
Replying to @gerrymcgovern@mastodon.green
Aaaand they're still orders of magnitude more desirable than fossil fuels.
So, what's your solution, if not renewable energy sources and battery storage?
Replying to @tantramar@zeroes.ca
It's a tool to help take control of YouTube, of Reddit, of many other platforms.....
It's worth investigating, mate

If I say "acoustic bike" you have no trouble understanding exactly what I mean.....
Good enough for Luka Bloom is good enough for me

Batteries are a faaaaar better, far cleaner, option than burning archaic single use fossil fuels.
