@F-IM-Forty Propaganda? Do you work for a fossil fuel company? You're starting to throw around some serious absurdities. What about the pollution from direct fire use? log fires produce an awful tot of waste heat and large amounts of particulate (smoke) and CO2. Wind gen; no smoke, no CO2. Here's a graph of thermal efficiencies. BTW I've produced many data links....you accuse me of propaganda and yet post no facts, no data.

That way if they are impressed enough to get in touch, we've gone past the preliminary screening. I won't look at women who don't seem ready - vague pictures, too few, too brief a profile, too many expectations. Nope...not me. Next....

Just look at/contact the ones who are "ready" and don't trouble yourself with the ones not posting pics/ not enough info.

Great! But let's think first pedestrian! Terra's resources have been overexploited, they need pause for (limited) regeneration. #freetheterrafamily #moralevolutionfirst #terrianlifeisuniqueandfinite #terraprotectivityispriority
Robecology replies on Feb 6, 2019:
I concur with Terra/Gaia's resources being overexploited. We won't get a "pause" until later this century (there is a prediction of ZPG in 4-5 decades); but fortunately there's a trend to slow down our growth. It should actually start to decline as family planning wisdom takes hold. In the meantime you do understand that this car has the net energy equivalent of a 100 MPG vehicle? It has no exhaust. It's all Electric. It's quiet, and efficient. I plug it in to recharge it. True; power plants pollute; but their pollution controls are far more sophisticated and better than those on individual cars. And nearly all of Tesla's components - even the battery - is 100% recyclable. Go to www.Tesla.com to get more info and stats/data
Interesting story.

@Trajan61 How did I know you'd take it that way? No. I would never suggested abortions are good. They're not "killing babies"....but they're still the last choice forced on them by those who fight family planning....folks like you. Abortions should be a last line of decision-making. But; again - if we welcome family planning for the poor and ignorant, then their needs for abortions go away. If you want less tax money going towards abortions and more to go to things you like, you fight abortion and family planning funding - which causes the unwanted and unloved population - and thus the prison population to grow. If you want an end to the poor and ignorant getting abortions - You welcome family planning. You give them an alternative - or they will keep having babies - and they will grow up to be the scourge of society. It's in the hands of conservative voters...and it's a fiscally conservative strategy as well (save society money; welcome family planning - thus ending abortions).

Robecology replies on Feb 1, 2019:
@brentan I'm not saying it; it's well established science; search "Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny". in other words, as we developed in the womb, we parallel the evolution of vertebrates. As we develop outside the womb, the "evolution" is a gradual process that results, after years, with a fully conscious human. But it takes years. Analogies to the Recapitulation theory have been formulated in other fields, including cognitive development and art criticism. Think about your earliest memories. Age 3? Age 4? The age where you first realized your lifetime was limited? That's when you became fully human.
