@IanDanielDias@Scribulatora@whatisnuclear@curryja@Footprint2Wings Thanks for all the info.
But none of it addresses the problem that the Nuclear industry cannot clean up these incredible messes when things go bad.
Any honest evaluation of nuclear power must consider the incredible danger that reactors pose when they break, and the huge

@albert_cli19951@GuntherEagleman@grok And these subsidies don't even include all the benefits that government provides by creating a productive society including roads, public transit, public education, crime prevention, poverty mitigation, recreational activities, disaster relief, international relations etc.
@unusual_whales 368 million for ocean data. The Pentagon loses that down the back of the couch every quarter. Funny which line items get called wasteful
@AfricanHub_ ... as has happened in countless remakes of this play, would have resulted in the same howls of outrage we see here.
Racism is so fluid

@AfricanHub_ Ancient Greeks only allowed men to play roles like Helen of Troy ... talk about cultural appropriation
Add the idea that women from some barbaric northern tribe of what we today call Europe,
would be permitted to portray the most beautiful Greek woman in history ...

@momtocharlee@alexhuot Maybe it would make financial sense to buy this plane, even without the need to rent it out, though the suggestion is absolutely worth exploring
ChatGPT said the plane should have 15-25 years of life left in it
Partisan fear-mongering is the opposite of holding a gov to account
@JamesAooScotch @alexhuot Oh yes, the Ontario government should join the ranks of all those multi-billion organizations that do their long-distance business travel by public transit.
Your Genius suggestion won't make Ontario more affordable
Penny wise, pound #$%&ing stupid, at best
@Va5Bob60771 @elonmusk Clean energy can be used in place of fossil fuels to produce more clean energy.
It is true that mining is, to varying degrees, environmentally destructive. But advances in clean energy technologies could mitigate that.
How about "mining" for elements like Lithium from

I was laid out for 2 weeks with horrendous back pain.
I made it to Emergency on a powerful dose of painkillers at my Doctor's recommendation. They gave me a dose of better painkiller - Demerol - which did give relief as I left the hospital and took a cab ride home. But it only lasted until I tried to lift my leg for the front step at which point the pain cut through the Demerol and put me on the ground.
After another week someone from work gave me the name of a Massage Therapist. I doubted it, but tried it anyway. She had me walking pain free in an hour.
Apparently it was only a muscle spasm in my back that caused the incredible pain.
I suspect that most debilitating back pain is caused by muscle spasms, but our medical system usually assumes a pinched nerve or slipped disk, resulting in surgery.
I've never needed additional medical treatment
@arealmermaid2 A tiny handful of scientists suggested we might be cooling in the 70s which got blown out of proportion by the media. The majority knew we were warming - and so we have. The observed temperature since then does not lie. https://t.co/ecjwMljd38
