2100: il 74% del pianeta soffrirà di siccitàLa combinazione di scarse precipitazioni piovose e nevose e l'aumento costante delle temperature porterà a una progressiva riduzione della portata dei fiumi e della disponibilità di acqua potabile

    I really need some help with some specialist knowledge. Please boost for reach.Does anyone have a detailed comparison of the carbon footprint of composting foodwaste as opposed to an anerobic digestor with the gas being collected and burnt for fuel?Background and more info.Tomorrow I'm going to be asking a question at my local District Council (UK) about their new food waste initiative.They are going to provide a new weekly food waste collection with the rollout providing new bins but also plastic bags to put food waste into. The plastic bag is be removed at the disposal facility which will be incinerated.Food waste, after the plastic bag removal will be put in an anerobic digestor with the aim to syphon off the gases for "energy use" which I'm pretty sure means burning them. Our current system is the food waste goes in our green bin and goes to a large composting facility.I'm pretty sure of my assertion that providing single use plastic bags that will be burnt will increase rather than reduce their carbon footprint.My question I can't find the answer is the following:Is it more carbon friendly to hot compost food waste or to use an anerobic digester which harvests the gases to be burnt as fuel.Does anyone have a detailed, nuanced, comparison of the carbon footprint of composting foodwaste as opposed to an anerobic digestor.Deadline to question is 20hrs (sorry for short timeframe got the original date wrong). However if you miss the deadline but have useful info I'm sure this is the first round.Please boost for reach and thank you for taking to time read this long post.#fedihelp #ClimateChange #CarbonFootprint

    @aram @rysiek Gates is all in on AI. They're now running data centers on jet fuel. Of course he's "given up" on reducing emissions

    Australia is still a deeply racist country when it comes to Aboriginal people.This is some of the oldest written communications on Earth.This rock art was already ~40,000 years old when the Giza pyramids were an ongoing capital works project by the pharaohs of Ancient Egypt.But because Aboriginal and created it, we treat it as worthless.I can't stress this enough.This should be a source of deep and profound shame for every non-Aboriginal Australian.We, collectively, see irreplaceable 50,000 year old cultural artifacts as having less value than a tank full of petrol.Because we view Aboriginal history as essentially worthless."The oldest petroglyphs in the world are deemed to be those at Murujuga in Western Australia, which are 40,000–50,000 years old. Some petroglyphs are classified as protected monuments and some have been added to the list of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, or such status has been applied for."https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroglyph"The Albanese government agreed to weaken conditions it had proposed to protect world heritage-listed Indigenous rock art from Woodside’s giant North West Shelf gas development after the fossil fuel company argued it could be forced to shut the plant."The change is explained in a “statement of reasons” document setting out why the environment minister, Murray Watt, approved an application to extend the operating life of one of the world’s biggest and most polluting gas export developments until 2070."The statement shows Watt accepted environment department advice that “multiple lines of scientific and other evidence” suggested industrial emissions were having a “significant adverse impact” on rocks in Murujuga, a cultural landscape in northern Western Australia that is home to more than 1m pieces of rock art, known as petroglyphs."The minister also accepted advice that future pollution from the North West Shelf liquefied natural gas (LNG) processing facility could cause “degradation, damage, notable alteration, modification, obscuring or diminishing” of the area’s natural heritage."..."Watt provisionally ruled in May that Woodside could continue operating the LNG plant beyond 2030 only if it cut acidic pollution – particularly nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide – so that there were no air emissions “above the detectable limit” that affect rock art."But Woodside responded this was “not technically feasible”. It said the conditions were an “effective refusal” of the development that would lead to the “cessation of business as usual operations” at the end of 2030.#auspol #wapol #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #Australia #Perth #WesternAustralia #capitalism #business #ausbiz
