I just bought a new refrigerator and it comes with an app. I installed the app out of curiosity, the first thing the app demands is that I allow it to track the location of my phone at all times. The app's been deleted.

Reducing output isn't going to happen, well it won't happen until it's too late. It's like the smoker that gets diagnosed with cancer, and then decides to quite smoking. It's also ludicrous that think that warming

duh, whether it's true or not when their accusations are release the initial knee jerk reaction from the sheeple will be to sell which will drive down the price. Shorting GE before making the accusations is profiteering in my book. I

It's already too late. The generally accepted climate models are watered down versions that were acceptable to big business and politicians, it gave them the wiggle room to pass the buck. "We still have time, someone else can f

I'd be really curios to know who funded this research, and to understand the eating habits of the scientists involved. There was a lot of research that showed smoking didn't cause cancer and we all know how that came about.

No, the climate models the businesses and politicians found acceptable are watered down models that showed that we had a lot of time before we needed to make changes, thus letting the businesses and politicians pass the buck. The more aggre

I saw this nonsense start 20 years ago. Using "cool" jargon in the job descriptions and having automated keyword matching. HR was scored on how well the resumes matched the job description, HR needed to score above 75% so they
