Definitely not. I’ve seen these type of questions and answers on practically any job application in America. Thing is, this isn’t even the worst example of it, unfortunately. It’s fucking depressing and degrading.

I think these would look pretty cool in my art deco living room, and they’re free too! Such a great deal ;)

Yes, I’m saying after that, literally in our final years, at the bitter end, even if we live long enough to see our sun begin to die and expand, the poles will be the only habital places on earth for a fleeting moment until we’re finally extinguished.

We are completely screwed. One reason nobody in positions of power are doing anything is because they know this, and also money. All these green initiatives are simply another handout or money grab until the end. Not that we shouldn’t try or stop inventing new technology, but we must keep our expectations in line with reality as well.

To answer your questions though, yeah, in our final years, humanity will be split between the North and South poles. Areas around the equator will be too hot to sustain human life. I wonder what our communication would look like then, being unable to physically travel between poles.

Anyway, this endgame scenario is probably a bit past our lifetimes now, but not by much. We will get to see the beginning of the end, so to speak, probably around 2030s-2050s climate change will become extreme enough for it to be undeniable to the masses. Expect mass deaths from famine, disease, heat, drought, extreme weather, inability to grow food, etc., the usual, but worldwide.

You can escape it for a while but eventually the entire planet will become hostile to most life as we know it. Maybe some microbes will be able to survive but not much else in the way of more complex lifeforms.

What about the year after that?

That’s it!

It was an American named Eunice Foote that detailed the mechanics of the greenhouse effect, but, give or take, it was also around the same time that many scientists came to the same or similar conclusions about this subject. So yes, we’ve been warned for over 200 years and have done exactly nothing to solve the problem. Why? $.

More like over 200 years ago. There was a french female scientist that discovered the greenhouse effect before John Tyndall but I forgot her name and I’m at work rn, can’t search for it.

Tabs of acid in little baggies

We’re so close lol… for now

A lot of them are appointed former execs of the corporations they’re supposed to regulate, and in America corporations are people so they can donate to PAC’s and whatnot all in the light of day to influence policy making. There’s no telling what happens when the lights are off. Thus, they are employed by these corporations gracious donations while at the same time placed in a position to make policy in government. Tail meet dog.

You think they’re campaigning off of grandma’s $5 donation?

What if the people who make and enforce the regulations are the very same people who run these corporations?

The picture quality will be pretty much the same or identical, but the 265 file will be about half the size compared to 264. That’s the main benefit of h.265 is smaller file sizes without much if any loss in quality.
