Comment Not that CO2 is of any interest any more (Score -1, Troll) 235
Miss the leaked IPCC report did we?
But, to extoll the virtues of fracking in the absence of any proof CO2 is doing anything, well, that takes a special kind of hubris.

Also, NASA pointed this out to them in 2010.
You might want to peruse the leaked IPCC report. They admit they were way wrong. It came out 2 days ago.
when you put it in a fruit salad, call me.
if this example from 1983 is the best you can do.... it's weak.
kudos for being the only non-anon reply (at least so far) though. wtf is up with that?
This sounds rather nebulous. That is, it's possible to interpret what you've said as either a bug or a feature.
Given the recent IPCC leak, if this is about the failed co2 hypothesis and nothing more, then they deserve it.
If they're pointing out pollution is bad and getting way worse, then they're in the right. But if this is the case, this is actionable.
The fact they're keeping quiet in all their PR about what these issues are tells me they're hiding something. And this is not the first time they've made noise about being muzzled but not what it is they can't say. Even if it's totally legit they've managed to make it smell fishy as hell.
what is this muzzled science? Why isn't that obvious let alone seemingly never mentioned.
getting the word out in this day and age isn't exactly the problem it was 20 years ago.
god knows I'm not sticking up for that cretin harper, but seriously, what's the deal?

Are you asking for evidence of donation or of the ACLU doing far more good than the NRA? Both seem to be odd questions.
The NRA claims that protecting gun ownership protects civil rights by empowering the individual to defend themselves against the government (we'll ignore, for a moment that nothing could be further from the truth, and everyone in this nation, armed or not is a heartbeat away from a smart bomb at their breakfast table, or that you can be financially and socially ruined without ever having the opportunity to shoot back). Let's take the NRA's claim at face value and assume that they are 100% correct.
They still only defend the status quo. Having a gun doesn't undo the erosion of rights due to the corrosive influence of the re-election cycle in Washington. The ACLU seeks to actively move the line of civil rights back to where it started, and hopefully even a bit further through the courts and activism.
Now, the ACLU and the NRA happen to disagree over the interpretation of the 2nd amendment (FWIW, I think that was the stupidest call the ACLU ever made) but even when they disagree they're still nominally working toward the same goal (the ACLU isn't trying to prop up the gun industry, but I'm talking about implied goals, here), so it's pretty easy to judge which of them objectively makes the most progress...
Do you actually know what happened there?
CFC's re replaced with HCFC's. They're not as bad for the ozone layer. They're only 98% as bad.
DuPont got paid to:
1) Recycle all the freon.
2) Make machines to do 1)
3) Make all the HFCF's
4) Make all the machines fo use 3)
A former Dupont exec I met in first class once said they'd pretty much made it all up. Notice we cut back, not eliminated CFCs? Hows the ozone layer doing 30 years later now ?
It's easy to spot a manufactured crisis for commercial gain after the fact.
AAPL was elevated to stratospheric heights because of a bubble in their stock. Every hedge fund on the planet was buying it because the price was going up and the price was going up because every hedge fund on the planet was buying it. Its not really useful to compare to a time its stock was at stratospheric heights due to speculators.
On the other hand since Jobs died they do seem to be completely sucking. Hiring Kevin Lynch from Adobe was the most vivid illustration of that I can think of. I wager Jobs would have instantly fired anyone dumb enough to hire that guy.
Its probably an interesting question if those same hedge funds are pushing GOOG to heights greater than it deserves. Android is doing well but its a has a weird business model.
Japan has been using unmanned helicopters to spray crops for decades. Yamaha makes them, though they are a little expensive. They are extremely good at it, the down wash from the rotor helps spread the spray all through the plants.
UC Davis, if memory serves, has started trials on them in the U.S. recently but the restrictive drone regulatory climate needs to relax a little
This argument was addressed in this paper - from 1928.

"but the primary causes of cancer aren't your damn food."
No, just the phytoalexins required to reverse tumors. You are wrong and should read more.
Cancer is caused by a number of things. Cosmic rays can do it. It's quite natural and nearly all the time the body takes care of it' cancerous cells can be fond at all times in all living things, they're just cells that didn't divide properly for whatever reason. You cam never stop that not do you need to. What needs to be addressed is the inability of some people under some conditions to have their immune system destroy these defective copies. This turns out to be because of a nutritional deficiency caused by industrial tampering in our food supply. See my comments near the top to see the actual molecular biodynamics involved.
