worldnews@lemmy.world•‘We are damned fools’: scientist who sounded climate alarm in 80s warns of worse to come
9·2 years agoYeah, quite a bit personally. I live in the West, so my lifestyle is quite carbon heavy.

Solarpunk@slrpnk.net•Empty Office Buildings Are Being Turned Into Vertical FarmsEnglish
2·2 years agoTBH I think in most situations this excess office capacity could be most useful as affordable housing to bring a degree of sanity to rent and house prices.
Are the characterisations of the different alternatives a fair summary?
By asking a closed question?
Is it because I said Tankie?
Yes that makes sense I’ve added NSFW. How would you describe the character of the others?

4·2 years agoIt will help a bit. I’m not a fan of these light grown plants really though. Too much energy for too little gain
Ah yes you’d have to subscribe to each community individually I’m afraid https://fledd.it/magazines
This should work for you? https://lemmy.ml/c/worldnews@fledd.it

4·2 years agoPrecise robot arm control is a surprisingly hard problem. I can see some advantages to being able to move freely in 3D

I’ll try not to post links to the birdsite again.
This broke for a while, but should be fixed now

4·2 years agoThanks. Just to clarify that was posted automatically by a bot. I’m playing with automated feeds, I’ll try and adjust them so that they are more useful.

2·2 years agoIf you hate it a downvote seems appropriate!
I’ll try and do better with adding a summary, and ideally a preview shot of any videos I post in the future
Yes, it’s about how far they should be importing from. Many could probably do 80% of vegetables within ~20miles if the land around cities was used for horticulture rather than horses.
There was a report done on a city reasonably close to me: https://www.bristol.gov.uk/files/documents/1104-who-feeds-bristol-report/file it was quite influential ~10yrs ago

World News@lemmy.world•High quality bots in this channel?English
3·2 years agoYes, reposting the top scoring links is what I’m proposing. Like in my post history: https://lemmy.world/u/sam_uk
Reddit comments can stay on Reddit if you ask me. We already seem to have a critical mass of commenters here.

It’s not ‘all of us’ its those of us in the West/ Global North (the rich bit)
We flew, we drove, we ate all the meat. We shipped fantastical trinkets around the world. Our politicians gave us what we wanted.
The super rich really did it a lot, and brought all the media and fed us racist stereotypes. They brought the politicians. But we lap it up. It’s on us too.
