This is important for managing heat on a human level in cities. So I'm not saying this is stupid.
But don't get this twisted: This is useless for addressing the climate change problem. It's not even a bandaid on a stab wound, this is equivalent to offering someone bleeding out a glass of warm water and fanning them with a brochure about new plastic doodads. A trillion trees planted tomorrow wouldn't even be a pebble on the pavement to that SUV flying down the fiery freeway.
All health care settings should require masks all around all the time at this point. It would be the best way to blunt spikes or new outbreaks without a more general mask mandates.
I don't understand why every news source has to give dump so much more time than anyone else. Who cares what he said this time. It's the same thing every time. I guess it gets them more views (by what metric? Nielson?). CNN even said after dump's first win that maybe they shouldn't have given him about triple the coverage of every other candidate from both sides combined. In the interim years, CNN has still had more dump than even the current president.
This is why I do not watch news anymore. But, it matters little. Humanity, please continue our speed run to extinction.
I live in Texas and there are so many small towns that seemed to have forgotten trees exist outside of the trees planted in a private yard. I have only lived in Dallas as far as bigger cities go, but the trees are mostly located in the richer/older neighborhoods. Trees planted next to the curb and cared for by the city are almost non-existent.
So I got in an argument with a friend who thinks govt is useless. This is exactly the kind of source I’ve been looking for. Where do you keep up with official announcements like this?
I have a particular interest in the heat-island effect so this kind of stuff is always on my radar. This one specifically however I stumbled upon by chance.
As for your friend, I don’t know if it is only a change once I got older, but you will almost never be able to change your friend’s mind. I’ve had conversations along those lines with libertarians many times and there is a distinct lack of logic when discussing government. It’s not worth your time. I may be a bit exhausted by politics after the last eight years.
“We have to be truthful, not neutral,” she urged. “I would make sure that you don’t just give a platform … to those who want to crash down the constitution and democracy.”
The importance of this cannot be overstated. Here’s hoping the press rises to the challenge of responsible journalism.
Personally, I'd like to see Tim Gurner's properties rise to a 40-50% vacancy rate to remind him that properties require people to be of any use or value.
I don't know how he thinks 40-50% unemployment rate would lead to a functional economy. If half the population can't afford to buy anything, does he really think that's going to be good for businesses? Unless he's an advocate for universal basic income, of course, but something tells me he's not...
And how does he expect businesses to stay afloat with half their staff? Does he believe businesses don't need labor? Unemployment at 40-50% would indicate an economy in shambles.
Please report companies when they are breaking this law! People think this is unenforceable, but that’s incorrect. Each state has a way to report law breaking companies. Lack of pay transparency causes substantial illegal discrimination against all different classes.
