This is important. A quote: << Fixing the global food system would also tackle the climate crisis, the report said. The food system causes about 30% of all greenhouse gas emissions, with more than half coming from animals.

The trillion ton A68 iceberg broke off of the antarctic ice shelf in 2017 and has been floating around down there since, slowly melting. This is the one they said was the size of Delaware. The Brits are studying it to see what effects it’s having on the wildlife. The Thwaites Ice Shelf is being

I got a lot of information from this lecture. The Avian flu was harmless to waterfowl, but when humans started raising chickens in <factory farms> where the chickens are confined too close to one another, the flu virus spread to infect their lungs.

I think it’s the best way to remove carbon dioxide. https://climate.nasa.gov/news/2927/examining-the-viability-of-planting-trees-to-help-mitigate-climate-change/ This article makes some claims that the empress splendor tree is the best choice to sequester CO2.

I wonder if this is a different name for paulownia trees. https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2019/08/empress-trees-are-the-best-tree-to-solve-global-carbon-dioxide-problem.html
Every second, by thermonuclear fusion, the Sun converts 564 million tons of hydrogen to 560 million tons of helium. Where did 4 million tons go? The 4 million tons that are missing are converted into energy – photons, including sunlight. This energy amounts to 380 billion Megawatts, or 380 million Gigawatts, or 380,000 Terawatts, or
