Excess memes and ‘reply all’ emails are bad for climate, researcher warns
  • Why the fuck are they posting this bullshit? The cost of an email include the cost of the device you use to send or read the email, which is 70% of the cost. Then it's 15% (energy wise) to transport the email. The cost of storing the email is 0.5%.

    With that in mind, think about how much it costs to watch 1h on YouTube or Netflix...

    Some explanations in French (sry):

  • Long-term planning requires climate projections beyond 2100
  • yes, that's the problem. We may still have 47 years of oil left (I think we have less), but the cost to extract it will rise, and the economy will take a hit. So yes, we have to reorganize or we won't have to only think about the climate...

  • Long-term planning requires climate projections beyond 2100
  • if you don't have enough copper to transition to renewable energy, and don't have enough oil to continue, you're in for some fun times...

  • Long-term planning requires climate projections beyond 2100
  • Limits to growth is wrong then? Is there enough oil and copper at the current rate?

  • Long-term planning requires climate projections beyond 2100
  • What's the point if we can't get past 2050?
