I think work from home and also the adoption of the 4 day work week will be critical to tackling the climate crisis

All of the climate reports for the uk suggest we will need air conditioning 10 times more and our heating will be needed less. So the future should absolutely be in air conditioning and two way heat pump systems
We should probably stop subdising fossil fuel companies so much by this arguement. I’d rather my tax pounds went to subsidising heat pumps than fossil fuels.
The UK government has given £20bn more in support to fossil fuel producers than those of renewables since 2015, the Guardian can reveal.
From 2020 to 2021 they received an extra £1bn support from the government compared with 2020, a 10.7% increase. For renewable energy in the same year, total support for projects increased by just £1m, or 0.01%.
The most frustrating thing with heat pumps is how little help the government are providing. They will cost a fortune to the consumer, especially in houses that need existing heating systems altered to be compatible.
We need better grants and funding. Way better.
Hard to know what to say to these stories anymore. But one idea is:
One thing you can do is write to your MP or representative.
Here is a letter template to write to your MP if you are in the uk - you could also use the template in the US or elsewhere in the world : https://www.theclimatecoalition.org/write-to-your-mp

I have the same large Dutch oven and we use that and a cast iron pan for basically everything. I envy your le creuset collection we barely have space for the Dutch oven!
Fincher, Fassenbender, Tilda Swinton and Trent Reznor on the soundtrack. How could this be a no?
This just keeps getting better and better!
It does seem to have ramped up in the last few months especially. On a local level we are really struggling to grow food (in our gardens) due to such bizarre weather and that is a tiny example of the effect.
It does feel like that but I care in my small way, it’s all we can do is make small changes and contact our representatives. I’ve linked a template letter you can send to your representative or MP in my comment on this post.
Some crazy records being broken this year. There is also statistically outlying Antarctica ice melt but I haven’t seen that story anywhere since first seeing it.

Agreed, basically what I live off anyhow. But then it is leaf water, so unsure if the rules would allow!
Oh that’s a shame, it was great being able to split tasks between 2 of you
Thanks for letting me know, can’t wait to play it!
I didn’t realise it had already been released. Definitely getting the game ASAP. The couch coop of the last game was great, hopefully it’ll be the same/similar for this one
In terms of crime maybe try the original ‘the killing’ and the remake. The bridge is also good - all part of scandi noir crime wave that took over the UK for a while. There is some obvious deption of death and murder.
I’ve recently just watched the silo and that was brilliant Sci fi - very distopian and authoritarian though!
Yes it will, which is even more worrying but we have to do something. I think it’s going to have to be a joint carbon reduction and capture effort
Yes!
