ย @josephking1947ย Agreed, I would hope Chris has attempted to have a full understanding of the impact of wind turbines.
It's not just green energy we need, but a reduction in energy consumption...
Tree removal is an issue of course. It would be good if the government actually allowed onshore windfarms for that to be a problem, although where possible farms should be in tree-less areas. Trees suffer from other issues far worse than windfarms and climate change due to fossil fuel use will only add to that. Some trees lost vs all trees lost.
Bird deaths can be reduced by around 70% by painting one blade black so that the birds can see them better and avoid them. I've known this for years. Presumably the energy companies do too...
Bat deaths can be almost totally prevented with a combination of radar sensing and turbine slowdown. An automatic slowdown/ stopping of the blades at night when wind speeds drop (bats are more active when wind speeds fall), or there are bats detected.
Cameras can also serve this function, although not as well. Both can be used to collect data on bat populations, behaviour, etc.
I thought the wind turbines were magic. If not, what is?
Care to name the astrophysicist?
Anthropomorphic climate change has been known about and denied for decades. Guess who knew first??.
The fossil fuel companies that had/ have a profit motive to know, while they quietly collected data from all of their ready made weather stations, or rigs, etc. (I don't believe energy generation should be in the hands of private business, but while it is I'm glad Dale Vince is around.)
They even predicted sea level rise from this data and for why did they keep collecting data?
Concern, empathy, any emotion, anything caused by their "measurable evidence"?
No. In order that they would know where to place their rigs next to keep extracting fossil fuels, as the planet continues to drown/ burn.
I don't see this conversation lasting much longer, but we'll see.
EDIT The tobacco companies did the same propaganda with their product, but business needs to make a killing, huh? At least with tobacco it was just ourselves.

โโย @californiadreamin8423ย It's very likely Starmer wins as most people are voting against the Tories.
Plenty of people will vote for him because under FPTP they feel they have no choice and want rid of the Tories.
Starmer is the continuation of austerity.
Leaving the unions/ workers behind, now funded by big business/ the rich that won't change.
Starmer couldn't lie straight in bed about his intentions/ politics now, or in the past.
He was Corbyn's personal friend and now doesn't seem to know who he is.
His treatment of other colleagues is similarly disgusting.
The manifesto was a foundational document, but psych!.. he was lyin... sorry, joking?
Blair was praised by Thatcher and Starmer is advised by him, as well as other Blairites.
Never mind the red under your bed, how about basic post-WWII consensus?
But hey vote for more neoliberalism, tax cuts for the rich, tax rises for workers and cuts to services already cut by 50% when you don't have to and enjoy your power, for power's sake... while you still can.
Starmer's got one term and it'll either be the Tories again, who hopefully will have stopped chasing Reform Ltd/ MAGA by then, or Reform Ltd themselves.
Maggie must have been a secret, scary socialist too equalising capital gains and income tax as she did.
Anyhow have a nice day and don't worry this time next year you'll be a millionaire, not at all a plonker Rodney! ๐

@@Besthinktwice I read all of your comment here and on another thread.
There's never a legitimate reason for colonisation, more 'advanced' or not.
It's your return to this 'advanced,' 'better,' etc that just sounds like western chauvinism to me.
Again an odd argument for someone against colonisation on the left, or not.
Assessments about which culture is 'better' than another depends on what is being used as the yardstick.
How about not better, nor worse but different?
All of which I believe is beside the point:
Colonisation is bad.
We should all support decolonisation and being upset about acknowledging other human's contributions to human knowledge and culture seems very blinkered.
Seriously are we going to have a culture off, so you're more comfortable with decolonisationโฝ
The Chinese didn't invent anything before the west?
Very accurate astronomical data in base 60 in the Americas didn't exist and wasn't destroyed by the more 'advanced' Spanishโฝ
Egypt didn't build anything impressive and we still don't know how they did it all?
Native Americans and other first peoples know nothing about agriculture, ecosystemsโฝ
I'm sorry, if all you've got is decolonisation is good, but we were and are the more civilised, then this is my last reply ๐ค ๐

โย @chrislaurenceleoย It's always the other's fault with some people.
The others used to be single mums and immigrants.
Then gay people, single mums and immigrants.
Then gay people, single and, or working mums, then stay at home mums and a different set of immigrants.
Then anyone who doesn't work for any reason whether they're disabled, ill and, or dying, a different set of immigrants.
Then the young for eating fancy toast and not being so prejudiced, non-workers, the poor, transpeople, all immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers. (Except for Ukrainians as it plays too well internationally and to BoJo's dress-up fantasies.)
For some people it's always the other, never those with actual power.
But punching up requires more effort than kicking down...

ย @philosphorusย I've wondered if it could just be that myself, a failure of language. However for one, I'm pretty sure that previously English didn't have these gaps when it came to non-gendered, singular pronouns - which I'm guessing is what you're referring to?
These gaps may make it harder for some people to 'understand' transpeople, but empathy for another human should supersede any failure of a language in categorising people. (I hate categorisation, however if we have to...)
Languages sometimes do evolve 'naturally,' sometimes not (via committee, political will, etc) and sometimes a mix of both.
English isn't a dark age's language and is no better, or worse than any other language. They're all different and often related either in the present, the past, or both.

Good video and interesting to see what an American sees ๐ค
(Hung parliaments are unusual here.)
I dispute New Nu-Labour being centre left though.
Starmer has continued the party's move to the right to chase the Tories, only more so.
Partly because the MAGA section of the Tories have gone far right, chasing Reform Ltd.
Farage has been and is the most influential politician never to be elected, yet.
The Tories have tried to outflank him to the right and now some of their supporters call them Socialists, going to Reform Ltd.
Farage is friends with Bannon.
Truss stood next to Bannon while he praised Tommy Robinson aka Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, another far right, millionaire man-of-the-people.
New Nu-Labour has purged the left with far more malice than Blair did.
Thatcher said her greatest accomplishment was Blair.
She brought in neoliberalism, Blair continued it and now New Nu-Labour are privately funded.
They're likely a one term government. Starmer can't lie straight in bed and we all know it.
The Tories might go extinct and Reform Ltd could be the Opposition party to New Nu-Labour.
Hopefully it's the Lib Dems.
Due to the expected New Nu-Labour landslide, it's a free vote (rare under FPTP,) so as a green lefty, I've voted for the Greens ๐
(Postal votes are early.)

I'm happy for St. George and the rest that they've so little struggle in their lives, that their number one priority is people coming here.
Not crumbling schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, rivers and seas of sewage, the housing crisis, the energy rip-off, the cost of greed crisis more widely, austerity since 2010 meaning our tax money props up banks, austerity continuing to today and us paying for billions in fraud, again, etc, etc, etc!

Many religious_spiritual practices involve constant, repeated stimuli that help to induce an altered state of consciousness:
Chanting, singing, clapping, drumming, dancing, meditating while looking at geometric patterns, IE: Mandalas.
Further back in human history an absence of stimuli was used for the same effect.
They'd use a burning torch to go into a cave where sunlight couldn't reach, extinguish the torch and sit. This is how some cave art was inspired.
Now some people achieve the same in blackout flotation tanks.
So, I'm wondering if Spanian's spiritual experiences could be explained like this?
Staring at the wall, for long periods - meditating and with no TV, radio, no stimuli?
This isn't meant to negate his experience, just found intriguing ๐ค ๐

ย @lloydnaylor6113ย Whether they're WFH, or not Cruella and other MPs shouldn't be attempting to use them for personal reasons.
Certainly not to hide their law breaking, especially when they're Home Secretary - after repeatedly slinging mud at them, in public.
I'm very relieved that Cruella understands, respects and abides by our laws, policies, etc - unlike those refugees, I mean immigrants, I mean criminals, rap*sts, murderers, I mean Mexicans.
Build the wall, build the wall. France is going to pay for it!!! ๐ฅด

ย @dougiesweeny4833ย Agreed! To solve homelessness AND to stop stoking fear to distract/ divide us, so that they can continue not exercising due diligence as regards fulfilling their duty of care, to anyone in this country.
Homelessness has many causes, illegal migration is a tiny fraction of the overall picture.
Bigger factors are Thatcher's Right To Buy, along with a failure to replace the original housing stock, never mind increase supply to match any increase in population.
40% of previous council houses now rented out by rip off landlords. New properties scooped up by landlords, etc to include AirBnB!
Buildings and brownfield sites empty.
The closure of the mental health institutions in the '90s. A lack of mental health/ social services now.
The constant artificial limiting of supply to inflate prices, so some make a lot of money while the homeless look forward to ill physical, mental health, abuse and death at an average age of 47.
None of the above are solved by stopping the boats whether they are carrying illegal men of military age, rap*sts, etc or illegal migrants, asylum seekers, economic migrants, students, as well as Uncle Tom Cobley and all.
Anyhow, to prevent any further screeds; I'll bid you good-day ๐ค ๐

โย @zoephin6205ย The trial data is being with-held otherwise it would show that the vaccine is a killer?
Deaths before 14 days, etc:
The first jab I had of the vaccine provided around 30% protection after a few weeks (I forget how many exactly) and around six weeks after the second jab it reached its full efficacy of 70%-ish - again I forget exactly and I cba to google and check for this discussion.
So why would I be counted as vaxxed at 14 days? You wouldn't gain any advantage to being vaxxed as soon as the needle is taken out of your arm, it's not magic.
Do you know what a PCR is and what it is for?
The CDC do not have different PCR test thresholds for non- vs vaxxed.
What they have said is that specimens which give a positive Covid result, need to have been run through 28> PCR cycles in order to have enough RNA to be worth attempting to sequence.
These are facts, not conspiracy theories posted in the middle of this year.
That said I agree with you, again X
We are being manipulated to keep fighting and arguing amongst ourselves, rather than fight those that want to keep us working, even during a global pandemic.
It was bad enough pre-pandemic, I just didn't expect that basic science was going to be denied by so many fellow poors to protect the very vulnerable, very wealthy's egos and profits.
Throw off your blinkers, get back in the mine, unvaxxed and unmasked, go freely to your job and grind away ๐

โย @ExodusCoreย Agreed. The vaccine does not stop spread. However it dos reduce it, as well as severity of symptoms, risk of hospitalisation and death. It may also reduce the severity of long covid.
If you don't have symptoms and have the virus you will spread it, surely? So your advice is a little lacking.
"A bit sick" is a bit wishy washy too.
As I said to the bot above: Be free to spread the virus, get back to work and keep your fingers crossed that you'll be ok, Jack - I'll cross mine for everyone else, including any family and, or friends that you spread the virus to, directly, or indirectly ๐
Your assumption was correct, I do support vaccine mandates for this virus and other pathogens.
The more people that remain uneducated (not meant as a slur,) wilfully ignorant, scared, brain washed, etc the more pain, suffering and death there will be.
In the meantime other routine vaccines are under threat, but never mind you're presumably an adult so what do you care?

Ah 2008 when the media and politicians with one voice; loudly denounced the casino banks and their fevered trading of collateral loan obligations with their indecipherable, algebraic grading 'system.'
Well for a week, or two even property developers and landlords were included.
Then the property market and the people who following its advice declared they were self-employed, in order not to have to prove earnings and get bigger, unaffordable mortgages.
Lastly, inevitably the buck stopped at the people with nothing often not even a mortgage.
The mess the powerful wealthy had caused HAD to be paid by the most vulnerable and poor:
The working poor, the unemployed, the sick, disabled, etc, etc.
Austerity has killed around 200,000 people and Covid about the same.
The same people paying most of the price for that too.
The same people making a massive killing.
Brexit...
Here we heard Rachel say we're in a different position with public finances, the banker's bonus cap can go and so that means that austerity can end too, rightโฝโฝโฝ
Right!!!

ย @steptayย The football fans were not being paid to attend, nor did they receive any training, or have any authority to carry out a job supposed to involve a duty of care to ordinary people.
It does not matter what some fans did when it comes to examining the role of the police in the deaths of now 97 people.
Nor when examining the role the police had in covering up their incompetence after that and trying to blame ordinary, grieving people for that same deadly incompetence. (To say nothing of the smears by ambulance staff, The S*N, etc, etc.)
Did Liverpool fans design the stadium? Maybe if that had been designed better 97 people wouldn't have died, not to mention those injured physically and mentally, etc, etc.
Maybe if we didn't have sporting spectator events police wouldn't act like this, to this day...
You may not be cold hearted, however you are something...

โย @RJALEXANDER777ย Agreed, bees and ants would be more immediately recognisable examples, not sure that makes them better illustrations for his point though.
Without researching, let's assume that you're right in your assertion about social animals, that social hierarchies are still hard coded into our DNA (rather than "being",) from billions of years ago - and?..
Are you saying that all animal hierarchies must therefore be patriarchal, how so?
Does that mean that all human societies have been patriarchal and always will be? Or is it just the good western ones?, whatever 'western' means.
Agreed, cooperation gives us an advantage. Is cooperation only possible in patriarchal hierarchies? I thought JP would be for more competition...
Humans are animals, however nature that we are a part of, is more complex and varied than males are hard wired to dominate, or coordinate.
I don't necessarily have an issue with saying nature does x, or y.
However a lot of people forget that in nature z also exists and sometimes z+, g, b and, or t.
There's maybe a more nuanced discussion to be had than the main stream one about the gender pay gap.
However JP dismissing sexism as being at least a part of that discussion seems wilfully ignorant and he was condescending to Kathy, in dare I say it? - a very stereotypical male way.
If he was truly confident of his position, there would be no need to be so.

โย @sandro123429ย South Korea is not doing well.
Capitalism is not a meritocracy. It can't be when companies and individuals have more power than governments, so that they get to write and, or ignore the law.
I agree we're always in changing times, but it's a sign of these times that we allow ourselves to be dictated to.
To allow ourselves to be brainwashed into believing that there are only two ways to organise society.
The best way having ruthlessness as the measure of success.
There's been an explosion of homeless people in my city centre from one person in the early 1990s to a hundred now.
That's just the centre which also has few open businesses other than betting shops, pawn shops and charities.
I knew 20 homeless people and in five years, five of them are dead.
How are homeless people doing now in former communist countries? Is the average life expectancy on the street 50 years old like it is here?..
I was told by someone from central Europe that there are more homeless people now, but the communist government used to be so corrupt, even if everyone had somewhere to live.
Are the UK, US, etc governments not corrupt?
220,000 dead from austerity since 2008 and the same again for Covid inaction all to protect profits.
440,000 dead, at least in 16 years to protect profit.
I'm looking forward to choosing my Freedom โข๏ธ canned air in the future because someone's got to be paid for filling those canisters and it's not business's fault that clean, breathable air is no longer a thing...

ย @lhkilliannย I agree and go further: Under the current system(s) it's more frequent than every five years. Capitalism via neoliberalism combined with FPTP, MSM and social media is really fcuking bad. I don't see that as an argument for royalty.
As bad as democracy currently is under neoliberalism, the idea is better than actually deferring to an authority grounded in religion.
Charles has a disproportionate amount of power, but is still beholden to the government who are beholden to business. I don't agree we're a working democracy, royal family, or not.
People talk about the longest continuous running systems of governance and for us the longest, continuous democracy is cited variously as the Isle of Mann, Britain, US or Iceland, etc. Suggesting that this is a valued claim across the globe, albeit not everywhere.
I have mixed feelings about the pomp and pageantry. I don't like the theft, waste and contrast of conspicuous consumption when people are still starving, homeless, etc, etc. Don't get me wrong, I also hate the inequality under any system.
I didn't mention a written constitution and if I did I would say that I wanted/ want one. However the US has had one since inception and the idea of a living document is fine and dandy. However there are a 101 interpretations of it, much like a religious book, the bible, etc, etc.
I'm idealist in that I believe the way we govern ourselves should come from ourselves as closely as possible, not an abstraction like religion, or FPTP.
My case for getting rid of the monarchy is that it's unrepresentative and it's authority comes from religion. Not even all people of faith believe that religion should have any effect, at all on politics. Jesus didn't promise an earthly kingdom, he rejected the offer of the material world from the devil, in the the desert, at the end of forty days of temptation.
The kingdom of god isn't material.
I may be an atheist, but I paid attention in Sunday school and I'm not blinkered by my lack of faith in a god. Angry atheists are as annoying as polemic preachers.
My dislike of the institution of royalty is global, not specific to Westminster. Yes, the same issues could well exist under a republic. However then the royal family can't be used as a bunch of jangling keys to distract people with, the royal family and their clingons would be one less source of corruption and money, power drain and help to make the overall picture just that bit clearer.
Once we can see the real issue(s) clearer, solution(s) should be easier to arrive at ๐ค ๐

ย @twaldner90ย Viruses are in the water_mucus droplets. Some will be bigger, some smaller than the holes in the masks. Masks help, they're not 100%, neither are other measures like social distancing.
Surgeons and other medical staff use physical barriers to help prevent infection, as well as other measures such as sterilisation of equipment.
A bucket with small holes will carry more water than a bucket with no bottom.
My fear of pandemics comes from science and my understanding of that since school and beyond.
I didn't and don't believe that the plague is a lefty plot, for example.
I don't watch quacks on t.v. I mean I like ducks, but... the scientific consensus was not arrived at by t.v doctors selling snake oil.
The vaccine works as others do, even if the method of making them is newer for some of them.
Thank you I will and I'm not forcing anyone to do anything. However isn't there something about acting for the greater good/ welfare in the u.s?
"Educated" not sure what you mean. Control for me was trying to get me to go to work when the science said No, but the politicians here and the supposed professionals I worked with felt their profit was more important than our safety, even their own.
Which covid positive immigrants, genuinely not sure what you mean? The rapist, drug dealing terrorists from mexico??
The conditions for the mexican children were still terrible last time I saw the photos and yes, that was post-Drumpf. An improvement on conditions under Drumpf, but yes not good. Is that a flip-flop?
There were lefties and righties complaining last time I saw n. americans discussing the treatment of mexican children.
What might help their plight is people not screaming in fear about rapists, murderers and gangs and looking at what is causing the children (and adults) to be treated in such a bad way.
